SINGAPORE

Singapore not a place to be,
If you love guns but can't keep,
The laws here are Damm strict,
With fines and canning for the law you break.

Just try spitting or chewing a bubble gum and you'll see.
You be at the dock before you can say cheese,
Clean and green is our sunny city,
With shopping malls to tease your senses freely.

Remember we are also world's food paradise,
What you want and need you can get it easily,
We also have the world's first and only Night Safari,
And anytime anywhere water and electricity.

English is our medium speaking language,
Others included is Tamil,Malay and Mandarin,
You Will be greeted with the warmest smile,
From the natives that comes in all form of lifestyles.

Help is never far away,
Don't mistake me for a moment,
I'm not here to sell you my country,
Just saying it honestly and faithfully,

We have the ugliest road users in Asia,
Count your blessing on the road if you are a motorist,
For men this is a special warning,
The public toilet is not for the faint hearted!

I'm being very grateful,
I won't be where I'm,
we have limited freedom of speech,
and we have limited freedom of choice

but there are some cons,
and our government do make mistakes,
but they are quick to react and admit their faults
when you compare our policies
and the rest of the world
I would say they are really
doing the best as they can
and it clearly reflects in this society

as long as we don't copy cat another country or their societies
we'll do fine. . .
I wish to sincerely thank our government,
for keeping everyone safe
and happy as united as now

thank you Sir Lee Kuan Yue
and prime minister Lee H L
His son. . .
coz I May not be so lucky to
meet them in person
so this is my humble tribute
to them and the men and women who
help us all this years

Hi Morgen, I enjoyed this read. Our family had a friend who was stationed in Singapore, can't remember when, after w.w.2. He absolutely Loved it there, he especially Loved the people. His wish was o go back there just to revisit the places he'd seen. Sadly, that wont be, but if Singapore is like any of his stories, then it is A1 in my book.
Catch you later.
MIKE.
