Greetings now from Singapore. I made it to this city-state/island nation on Friday afternoon. It’s an absolutely fascinating place teeming with trade, business, population, and humidity. The island is smaller than Luxembourg but has significantly many more citizens, around 3.6 million people from all over Asia, mostly of Chinese and Malay extraction. Then, there are roughly 1.2 million expatriates and non-residents. All the imported Western talent and commercial wealth might make it a little bit Asia Lite, but there remains plenty to discover this summer.
I will offer more facts and figures and personal impressions later, but pictures are way more interesting. Above is the silhouette of the skyscrapers that hold our apartment, and below is a crazy funk troupe crowding the pavement along Orchard Road on Sunday. Tang's, the department store, can be spied behind the group's bass enabler.
