- Regional Info:
- Singapore is located in South East Asia off the Southern tip of the Malaysian peninsular. Singapore is highly urbanised and Westernised making it a very easy country to move to. Most signage is in English (Singapore has four official Languages - English being one of them and Mandarin, Malay and Tamil the other three) and you will find many familiar brands in the numerous shopping malls such as Marks & Spencer. Aside from shopping, the other favourite past-time in Singapore is eating and there is a wide variety of both local and international cuisine to choose from. Popular sports include football, basketball, cricket, swimming, sailing, table tennis and badminton. Local transport is efficient, clean, cheap and quick - from taxis, to the MRT - and it is easy to navigate your way around the city.
