Last time before anyone discovered this island..It was
inhabitated by rural Indian nomads...They had been living here for
quite a few centuries already. Then, when the Sang Nila Utama, the
rural villagers approached him and sang out their warrior song in a
bid to chase them away but SNU was amazed at the intricacies of the
dance and song and thus, he stayed around for a week and learnt
that the song dance was called the Porra. Hence, Sang Nila Utama
decided to make the island his home and he told his subjects that
when their respective families come over, they were to sing a
Porra...Hence, the name Singapura came about..
