About Singapore
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singapore Singapore] is the smallest nation in Southeast Asia, located just below the tip of the Malay Peninsula.
Due to its small size, the Republic of Singapore is considered a microstate, and is one of the 3 surviving sovereign city-states in the world.
Since gaining independence from British colonial rule a mere 44 years ago, Singapore has rapidly bloomed into a dynamic cosmopolis. It is currently ranked as the 5th wealthiest country in terms of GDP per capita. Its population is highly diverse, multi-racial and multi-religious, with a Chinese majority, and large populations of Malays, Indians and other peoples. This makes Singapore one of the most culturally harmonious and successful cities in the world.
