Singapore = mini preview of Asia

By Rolly Dash -
My teacher said during history lesson that Singapore is like a mini preview of Asia.
Singapore, besides having 4 main different races (CIMO), has places that showcase different parts of Asia.

Chinese - Chinatown
Malay - Kampong Glam and Arab Street
Indian - Little India
Korean - Korea Plaza
Thai - Golden Mile Complex

In addition to that, there are many restaurants and stalls offering food from Japan, Korea, Thailand, the middle east etc. No wonder why my korean friends didn't feel so homesick after 4 months stay here. She can get so many korean food here.

Even though they drew arrows on the ground, many people are still standing at the centre, wanting to get into the train at the very first moment the MRT doors open. Haha. Do u agree?

These are rare in Singapore, probably because Singaporeans prefer Chwee Kueh. Haha.
