The Made in Singapore Drawer is an archive of posts on Singapore. My home, my country, warts and all.
I am a true-blue Singaporean, born and bred here. Some people do not believe me and think I hail from China because I can speak Chinese fairly well. It is true that many Singaporeans do not read, speak and understand Chinese, but there are still those who do. We grew up listening to Chinese music, reading Chinese books and newspapers, and watching Chinese drama.
Born and bred Singaporeans may or may not speak Chinese properly, but most understand Chinese perfectly.
Most important of all, all of us can speak perfect Singlish.

Can + bo? = Can or not?
Can + can = Confirm
Can + gua = Should be okay
Can + liao = Already done
Can + wor = Yea
Can + liao lah! = Ok, enough!
Singapore is truly kiasu (afraid to lose), uniquely rojak (mix up), always efficient
Pandan Reservoir is located in the western region of Singapore. It is a service reservoir formed by damming the mouth of the Sungei Pandan river.
Where is Singapore? People ask me this question all the time when I tell them I am from Singapore. Is it in China? No! It isn’t.
The Singapore flag consists of two equal horizontal sections, red above white. In the upper left section is a white crescent moon and 5 white stars forming a circle.

How is Singapore Weather?
Maybe the “how is Singapore weather” question should be re-phrased to… how HOT is it in Singapore?
