It is clear at first sight that this modern metropolis is amazingly well organized and clean, which is unusual for this part of the world. The locals, mainly Chinese people, have a decent standard of living and solid social security. Times ago, Singapore was famous as a shopping paradise. The offer is still at a remarkable level there, though the prices are no longer so very favourable. But they are still low enough, so that great numbers of foreigners are attracted by innumerable shops every yearNekdanji z ribiči naseljen močvirni otok je v nekaj desetletjih postal eno od najpomembnejših gospodarskih središč v Aziji. Moderno velemesto je že na prvi pogled neverjetno urejeno in čisto, kar je nenavadno za ta konec sveta. Domačini, večinoma kitajskega rodu, se ponašajo s solidnima življenjskim standardom in socialno varnostjo. Singapur je nekoč veljal za nakupovalni paradiž. Ponudba je še vedno na zavidljivi ravni, vendar cene niso več tako zelo ugodne. Še vedno pa so dovolj nizke, da neštete trgovine vsako leto privabijo veliko tujcevTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaZveza geografov Slovenije
