Singapore is the world’s only island city-state and is located on the tip of the Malay Peninsula in Southeast Asia. The city was founded as a British trading post by Sir Stamford Raffles in 1819 and continues to be an important center or global trade and investment today and it is one of the original four “Asian Tigers”. The city’s population of over five and a half million people lives on an area of just 277 square miles. Singapore also encompasses sixty-three islands including the larger main island. The city is highly urbanized and the majority of people live in high-rise apartment buildings, however the government’s “Garden City” policy instigated in the 1960s has created beautiful tree-lined street and there are plenty of parks and other green spaces to enjoy.

With a long history of immigration, Singapore is a truly cosmopolitan country. The majority of the population is ethnically Chinese but there are also Singaporeans with Indian, Arab and Malay heritage plus a large number of other residents from all over the world. There are four official languages; English, Mandarin, Malay and Tamil with English being the language of government and instruction. The city’s multicultural history can be seen in unique districts that grew up around their original settlers. These are the Colonial District, once the seat of British power in Singapore, Little India, Chinatown and the Arab Quarter.
