Singapore was founded as a British trading colony in 1819. It joined the Malaysian Federation in 1963 but was ousted two years later and became independent. Singapore subsequently became one of the world's most prosperous countries with strong international trading links (its port is one of the world's busiest in terms of tonnage handled) and with per capita GDP equal to that of the leading nations of Western Europe.

>playground
That would imply people have fun there.

Lee Kuan Yew proves a right-wing dictatorship can take a country from third to first world status in a generation, even with a deeply diverse population.

We're proof that multiculturalism and diversity(race/religion) doesn't automatically lead to a failed state.

In fact, we do way better than many places in the West.

What happens when your rapidly growing Malay population starts to outweigh low birth-rate chinkies?

>>79497290
the Malay population will never be able to outweigh the Chinese because the government draws in immigrants to keep racial percentages around the same.
