WHY SINGAPORE?

The Global Enabling Trade Report 2010, released by the World Economic Forum on May 19, 2010 ranks Singapore as #1 in its Global Enabling Trade Index, signifying Singapore's openness to trade.

“From an Asian perspective Singapore is perceived as Western; from a Western perspective Singapore is considered quite Asian! The mix of tradition and continuity with modernity and change, plus the "rojak salad" of Singaporean cultures—Chinese, Malay, Indian and Eurasian, contribute to making Singapore an enigma to many and confusing to most.” 
(from Cultural Detective Singapore). 

“Rojak is a fruit and vegetable salad dish commonly found in Malaysia, Singapore and Indonesia. The term "Rojak" is Malay for mixture, is also used as a colloquial expression for an eclectic mix, and in particular is often used to describe the multi-ethnic character of Malaysian and Singaporean society.”
