Singapore

Hello everyone! For my assignment, I chose to write a blog about my favorite country in the world which is Singapore!

I always dream to live there one fine day. I love the country because of its environment and also Singapore is one of the country that many tourists choose to go. For this entry let me story about Singapore's background.

Singapore, officially the Republic of Singapore, is a sovereign city-state and island country in maritime Southeast Asia. It lies about one degree of latitude (137 kilometres or 85 miles) north of the equator, off the southern tip of the Malay peninsula, and, by extension, the southernmost extremity of continental Eurasia. The island country is wedged between western Indonesia and peninsular Malaysia, sharing its southern maritime border with the Batam, Bintan, and Karimun archipelago of the former's Riau Islands province, and its northern, western, and eastern maritime borders with the latter's Johor state. 

it is additionally in the vicinity of Sumatra to its west and Borneo to its east. Singapore is enveloped by the littoral waters of the Johore Strait to its north and the Singapore Strait to its south, and is within the confluence of the Indian and Pacific Oceans, being bounded by the Malacca Strait to its west and the South China Sea to its east. The country's territory, which is archipelagic, is composed of one main island, 63 satellite islands and islets, and one outlying islet, the combined area of which has increased by 25% since the country's independence as a result of extensive land reclamation projects.

Singapore is a wealthy city state in south-east Asia. Once a British colonial trading post, today it is a thriving global financial hub and described as one of Asia's economic "tigers". It is also renowned for its conservatism and strict local laws and the country prides itself on its stability and security.

That's all for this entry. I will story more about Singapore in the next post :)

Have a good day!
