    Extractions: 104 users online Sino Net Despite rapid industrialisation, the majority of Singaporeans celebrate the major festivals associated with their respective religions. The variety of religions found in Singapore is a direct reflection of the diversity of races living there. The Chinese are predominantly followers of Buddhism and Taoism (deity worship), though some are Christians. Malays are overwhelmingly Muslims and most of Singapore's Indians are Hindus; there is, however, a sizeable proportion of Muslims and Sikhs amongst the Indian population. The four official languages of Singapore are Mandarin, Malay, Tamil and English. English is widespread and is the language which unites the various ethnic groups. Children are taught in English at school but also learn their mother tongue to make sure they don't lose contact with their traditions. The only communication problem English-speakers are likely to have in Singapore is with older Singaporeans who did not learn English at school, though trying to understand the unique patois called Singlish - which uses a clipped form of English mixed with Malay and Hokkien words - can be taxing. The use of Malay is mostly restricted to the Malay community. Chinese dialects, such as Hokkien, Teochew, Cantonese, Hainanese and Hakka, are still widely spoken, especially among the older Chinese, but the government's long-standing campaign to promote Mandarin, the main non-dialectal Chinese language, has been very successful and increasing numbers of Chinese now speak Mandarin at home. Tamil is the main Indian language, though Malayalam and Hindi are also spoken.

    Extractions: Parliament House, Singapore History, for the most part, dates back to the 14th century. At that time it was known as Temasek or "Sea Town". Apparently, it was supposed to have been renamed Singa Pura or "Lion City" after a Sumatran Prince visited the island. It is thought that he named it after seeing what he thought was a lion, but was most likely a leopard. In 1819 Singapore was nothing but a thickly jungled, swampy island populated with only a few sea gypsies and fishermen. Sir Stanford Raffles changed all that at this time when he claimed Singapore for the English East India Company (EIC). Raffles landed in Singapore on January 29, 1819, and signed a treaty with the Sultan Hussein Shah and the Temenggong Abdul Rahman on February 6, 1819. Laid out in the treaty was the establishment of a English East India division on the island and to be ruled by the EIC, Temenggong and Sultan Hussein.

48. Culture And Change: The Rise Of The Singapore Short Story In English
    culture and Change The Rise of the singapore Short Story in English.  
    http://www.scholars.nus.edu.sg/landow/post/singapore/literature/loh/loh1.html
    
    Extractions: The history of Singaporean literature is closely connected with the country's own inception as a republic in 1965. Autonomy, first from its British colonial masters and later by separation from Malaysia, gave rise to the urgent necessity to find a separate and distinct national identity, one that could clearly be called Singaporean. The endeavour to establish this identity is echoed in the literature through the themes they raise. In particular, this is most true of the Singapore Short story which was by comparison to other forms of literary expression most prolific during the early years of Singapore's history. This study first provides a brief historical overview of the Singapore Short story written in English after which it examines the development of the genre through its first decade dating from 1978 and subsequently, the next ten years to the present. Singapore is a cosmopolitan Asian city, unique in that there are four major language groups promoted by the government. From the very beginning, English was chosen as the language of government, law and social discourse. Being the native language of none of the ethnic groups, its choice favoured none. The presence of the different ethnic communities with their strong cultural identities and heritage suggests that the influence they exert over the development of Singapore literature cannot be insignificant. Chinese literature dates more than 3,000 years while the classic Hindu tales of
