Where is Singapore?
Singapore is an island city-state just north of the equator in southeast Asia. It is an interesting multi-ethnic blend of Chinese, Indian, and Malay cultures. The people practice many different religions and speak many languages. School instruction is in English, which works out well for our plan to observe math classes.
Singapore's economy has grown at a fantastic rate in the last 40 years. The country has a standard of living comparable to most of the large economies in the West.
The strict laws of the "fine city of Singapore" are well known. Drug trafficking will get you the death penalty. As a result, Singapore has few problems with drugs or crime. We are interested to see how discipline is handled in the schools.
