Singapore – Destination #11

This island city-state is quite a remarkable place, geographically, historically, economically, governmentally, religiously, and culturally. The citizens of Singapore really stand out among the peoples of Asia for their high standards in society and quality of life.
My dad visited the island back in his days in the Navy, so it was neat to be able to visit some of his old stomping grounds and experience some of the same sights and sounds.

The island nation is also quite a multicultural center, as seen in this photo with an Islamic mosque, Hindu temple, and Buddhist shrine. These ancient religions all exhist among the modern urban society, ever spreading with construction cranes like the Borg slowing assimilating the natural world.

God is doing great things through various ministries in Singapore, with Christians making up about 15% of the religious population. This high percentage of adherents to Christianity is unique among the countries of Asia.
