Description of Programme
We begin our journey at Raffles Place, the heart of the third most important financial centre in the world, and appreciate Singapore's developments from a quiet fishing village to a bustling metropolis. On this tour which includes a scrumptious meal at a restaurant in Chinatown, participants will learn about the history of Colonial Singapore as well as our struggles and success after gaining independence from the British. Participants will also discover how we’ve been able to get this far, appreciate the racial and religious harmony in diversity, and find out about future plans which our government has for our nation.
