Well.. what do u expect to be able to learn? I don't think u can
benefit much if you stay within the downtown, except of course, how
to keep everything looking new n shiny.
Me thinks what is worth looking at is Singapore as a
socio-political experiment: the result of the willingness to wipe
the slate clean n build from the foundation (no matter the cost),
whilst constantly holding the seams of potential disaster.
Look at our urban planning and housing estates especially,
ironically it is one of the world's most direct manifestations of
19th/20th Century modernist planning philosophy. The garden city,
self-contained satellite towns; apartment blocks with public space
at the ground level (void deck), roof top gardens etc... (look up
Le Corbusier)
See how we are different and the same, decide for yourself if we
have done well so far, or have we lost too much of our humanity in
pursuit of plastic perfection...
MOst of all... try our food!
