wow a very long poem. i liked it. its so good this way people who have never visited these places will know how Singapore is like. it reminded of my 19 hrs break in Singapore airport with my children. thanks for sharing.
Wow! I've never been to Singapore but it sounds like a wonderful place! Very descriptive.
Vow! How amazing, you really can describe Singapore in a fantastic and detail way, even a singaporeann like me could not do that.Your write is great!
Very colorful and exotic. One can learn much about Singapore from reading this fine, descriptive piece. Kind regards, Sandra
The City of Lions, yes I've been there only for an hour, a short stopover. Wish I could go back and enjoy more of the wonderful scenery, the restaurant, bars, museums, parks, plazas and all that. This minute country nearly as big as our Mactan Island is also look like the beautiful Hongkong, quite a comparison. Thanks for the wonderful tour, Ahmad?
This would be very enjoyable reading and reminiscing for someone who has visited and experienced these many places. Not having been to Singapore I cannot appreciate most of what is said. I am happy that it is a place so full of adventure and many pleasant and promising enjoyments. I will need to read more about Singapore and its atmosphere sometime.
Ahmad, you have fully described and detailed a wonderful place to live. Again, as always, you have taken us on a rapid journey, highlighting all that would be interesting, alluring, beautiful, sensual, natural and artistic, places that make for fine and meaningful living. Just as one person wrote, I, after reading a few times, had an eerie sense of 'seeing' everything you wrote about. You are magic, no doubt about it. A city filled with love, as you penned, makes me want to know more about the people. My best, Carol
