screen banana lemon singapore boom, when you have silence on a grater, you eyebrows are dark blue wonderful song by alexander vertinsky in early childhood. i sounded almost magical. i used to read a wonderful book by the wonderful writer viktor dragunsky tell me about singapore, of course, i could not imagine that for some time i could visit this extremely interesting country and, moreover, meet and even talk twice with the country's prime minister was born on february 10, 1956 , graduated from the faculty of mathematics. cambridge s

of whom university and the faculty of political science at harvard university in 1984 was elected a member of parliament from the ninety-fourth to ninety-eighth minister of industry and trade from the ninety-eighth chairman of the currencies of the financial administration of singapore from 2001 minister of finance, from august 12, 2004 prime minister of the republic of singapore very large globe and it is very visible. what a unique java news very advantageous position in the world occupying singapore between europe australia if you take a look there is a very large globe on the globe. and if we look at singapore, it is a very small red spot on it, we look around us and see great partner countries of opportunity. already

there are dangers to be avoided so that our small craft can safely. sail further towards a brighter future and prosperity, looking at the asia-pacific region as a whole, we are optimistic about the opportunities as we believe that peace and stability can be maintained in the region. what singapore is geographically located in a very advantageous place. the chinese were the first to understand, skillful, far-sighted merchants in the third century ad looked after this island on the edge of the peninsula. long time. only malay fishermen and pirates lived here, the strait, through which today tens of thousands of ships pass to the modern port a year, was considered one of the most dangerous tropical seas in malay legend singapore was founded in 1299 by a prince from the state of shevi jaya, fleeing the

island from a storm prince saw strange things here an animal resembling a lion, and since the prince himself was called a sink. what does a lion mean, he decided to found a new city on the island, he called it singapore the city of a lion. of course, it's hard to believe now, but some 60 years ago, that is, in the life of one generation, singapore from one of the poorest countries has become a powerful economic example for the whole world. 60 years ago e. the rishis were founded past one-story houses. this is for the benefit of the state, which even ported building sand and ordinary fresh water, and the miracle of which we want to tell you, really. today, it has simply made an outstanding economic

breakthrough, but has also become a role model for a huge number of countries in the world. skyscrapers and glass and concrete giant port technocratic oasis of asia all this and the city and the island and the independent republic of singapore living by its own strict rules. i think the historical path that we chose also played a significant role. we have survived the period of the war of the anti-klenial struggle of the left movement of the pro-communist current of the unionist movement. it was an underground political movement in singapore before we gained independence. it was our experience as part of malaysia and the people went

through such an experience of their recovery and development and decided that we must live on and fight and this seriously affected our success. the first constitution in the history of the country came into force on june 3, 1959 . it provided for the introduction of self-government within the british commonwealth, the historical date for singaporeans was december 22, 1965. on this day, an independent the republic of singapore from 1959 until 1990 for 301 years as prime minister of this country was one person li kuangyo in his book singapore history from the third world. in the first liguan, yu wrote in 1959, when i became prime minister, the gnp per capita

was $400 in 1990, when i retired. it rose to 12.000. in 1999 reached 22,000 dollars it was then in the distant 1959 that the government realized that there were no natural resources in the country, formulated cabinet against singapore, the most powerful commercial and financial center of all east asia , the government did a great job of reducing taxes on trade duties. investors were attracted, which naturally increased the employment of people and the goal of a record-breaking famine. singapore has become an economic

miracle not only in asia, an example for the whole world, and is rightfully called the father of this economic miracle . it was under the influence of this outstanding leader that lyon was brought up, his son is now the prime minister of singapore and our interlocutor. first of all, my father was successful, because i think he had the ability and was an extraordinary personality but not only that, there are many extraordinary personalities in the world . worked with him. a very efficient team. that is, everything that was done was not done by him alone, but he, as he himself said, was a conductor. he had a whole orchestra that played music under his direction. his orchestra was talented. they were a single team and they were focused on one common celingapura. if we

expand his orchestra, then we can talk about the contribution all the peoples who supported him trusted him, and he cared about his people and people worked together with him to achieve the changes that happened, you can have very good ideas, but if people don’t believe in them, if you can’t convince them that that this is exactly what you can and for this you need to work. you won't succeed. in this regard, we are lucky. it all started with the fact that a rigid code of laws was supposed to teach the nation a new civilized order, you can not litter. you can't throw cigarette butts to drive without a seatbelt read porn magazines or watch movies with scenes of violence. for all these violations, severe punishment awaits cafe owners for poor-quality food. many people

called the reforms of the clan as tough for drug trafficking, the death penalty, and those found guilty of corruption were sent to prison. crime in singapore has been reduced to almost zero today. uh, when it comes to crime, we have a very strict stance on drugs, weapons are prohibited from possession of weapons and if a person commits an armed robbery, he is sentenced to death, and in singapore has not had a case of robbery with firearms for a long time. we believe that this is the right approach 728 m². singapore has a population of almost 700,000 people. let's imagine six people. malay

and european here, of course, we must pay tribute to the british, since singapore was the colony of england for many, many years. but the people of singapore get along amazingly together, probably also because any manifestation of national enmity and national hatred is severe. punished by law. singapore is sometimes compared to switzerland according to different indicators, but according to one indicator , singapore can definitely go with switzerland, because switzerland and singapore have four official state languages. here is what this fact itself

already says about how tolerant the people of singapore are. and here is how it is possible to achieve such an inter-religious inter-confessional agreement, which is more difficult in our situation than switzerland switzerland different languages ​​german italian french, but in general there is one european ethnic group in our case only in language and pickle of origin, that is, racial origin, religion and languages ​​are all different in singapore, all the world's leading religions are represented in our groups, but there are still many different national communications, the population speaks very different languages ​​​​and far from all of them belong to the indo-european languages, tomil chinese completely different from english and always we need to get along together, that is, it is a constant effort

of social policy and integration. little india is a district of singapore where the descendants of indians live. settlers in ancient times, this land was allocated to indian communication to solve interethnic problems, but time passed and today this area is a multi-national tea-town area. chinatown. it was formed in the nineteenth century, when the city would be settled on an ethnic basis. here you can find everything that relates to chinese culture, temples, shops with chinese goods and spices, restaurants of national cuisine, but we walked around chinatown. you will also meet the oldest hindu temple, three seas, aman its bright facade is not confused with indian gods. here they are presented in all their colorful splendor. not far from here is the temple of the

sacred tooth of the buddha and here is the most ancient attraction. gagara, the mosque of sultan husain, it has retained its architectural appearance since its construction in 1826. 5,000 muslims can pray in it at the same time. that is, if you are a christian in singapore, then you do not consider singapore a christian country, if you are a buddhist and live in singapore, then for you, this is not a buddhist country, despite the fact that the buddhists is one of the largest religious groups in singapore if you are a muslim, then in singapore you have the opportunity to perform islamic rituals to observe fasting, go to the mosque. but you must understand that this is a multi-racial society and you live and work in a multi-racial context and a flexible compromise approach is always applied. and here is such a compromise and trust that was formed for a

long period. they define, from our point of view , the nature of our society, what is gradually emerging as the singaporean identity. so when you see a person who looks like an impulse, he can be a hindu from an eclipsed point of view. but when you look at it more closely. you say he's from singapore you're also with the chinese when you see a chinese you wonder if he's from china or maybe from hong kong and then when you look at how he behaves? how he dresses, how he speaks , understand that he comes from singapore about the symbiosis of cultures of ethnic cuisines such diversity, singapores, where are the cultures of malaysia and china india got stuck. uh, this, of course, is a particularly unique such a human, or something, climate through the atmosphere in singapore. everyone has their own holidays , actually already singapore holidays. what

are the brightest holidays, especially er, well, what are the favorite holidays in singaporeans? and i celebrate all holidays. we probably have the most diverse holidays in singapore, including both muslim and christian holidays. buddhist chinese indian. it seems to me that the most popular holiday that all singaporeans celebrate is chinese new year, the chinese community is the biggest, but not only this holiday has become a good occasion for non-chinese people to also have fun, but more and more people celebrate another holiday that means a lot and unites our people. this is the national day of independence day on august 9 this day. we have a time from the carnivals. we're having a memorial service because it's independence day. we gather together and take an oath. singapore

a truly fabulous tourist destination is here everything is intertwined, together rich diverse nature very mild and warm climate and no less warm welcome that local residents provide travelers. if you ever had to visit this hospitable region. you will definitely want to come back here. singapore is one of the most visited islands in the world, in the most places in the year there are twice as many tourists of various kinds of guests. what actually lives on the island. uh. we strive to make our country attractive for tourists. we don't have a mountain black sea, but we have beaches beautiful parks historical city center which is very interesting also integrated resorts worldly places

where you can see marine animals if you want a different experience. you can go to the casino and have a good rest singapore as a place from which you can go online. see the region as a whole and then return to singapore to get a feel for it. this is the second best place after home from which to explore the entire region singapore has recently resumed international maritime cruises stopped in march 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic. the first after the break, the ship left the port of singapore on june 30, 20 km from the capital is the world-famous changi airport with its annual throughput of more than 50 million passengers. this is a city within a city where you can

find everything from an abundance of shops restaurants to cinemas. yes, spa complexes and museums, those who love nature will definitely like the bukitimara reserve. it is located on a hill at the highest point in singapore at an altitude of 163 m on the territory of the raskinu reserve. botanical garden 160 species of animals have found shelter here, and monkeys have long become tame. a trip to singapore can not do without a trip to sentosa island, a small tropical island of tourist infrastructure, which was developed in the seventies of the last century. recently, and then there is a zoo where animals live in the wild in the bird park, the juranka the largest aquarium in the world and the butterfly park, home to 3,000 endangered species?

one of the healthiest cuisines here is a combination of indian chinese and malay cuisine, and this everything in this bouquet gives a unique singaporean cuisine. well, how true is this and uh, let's say fans of what kind of cuisine are you personally? singapore has a very interesting cuisine, a very large selection of indian cuisine, malaysian cuisine, which belongs to southeast asia, spicy and non- spicy dishes, rice noodle dishes. i am all eclectic and there are many different dishes, but i have to comply with the measure otherwise my doctor will say the same. my cholesterol level has gone up, please. take care of your form not really. i'm doing

sports. every day. swimming hiking i periodically train in the gym, but every year the oldest is manifested and not only in the form of a single. some favorite place. here is for me. this is clarke's quay sometime 150 years ago. it was a noisy crowded noisy pier. and now it is a very cozy embankment, along which it is another pleasure to walk. in my opinion, a very attractive amazing place. bay gardens, by the way, is the idea behind these gardens. continued again to the prime minister leaves the moon one hundred hectares of land covered with plants from all over the world and from africa from south america and from asia in a word from all over the world. there are almost 250,000 of them here. by the way, this is

the only architectural landscape project of its kind in the world. find yourself in a house on top of a fantastic giant tree, look at sculptures of huge dragonflies and an incredible snail from above. isn't this a childhood dream come true? there is no limit to human imagination in singapore, this country returns to childhood, even the most serious adult men. before saying goodbye to the minister, singapore makes an extremely strong impression, not just as a wonderfully hospitable country, but as a country that can serve as a model in many ways. i think

that now there is no such country in the world that would serve as a model for other countries. all have their own conditions and characteristics. even though we all face similar problems. globalization technological change is the instability of the uncertain modern world. and we are all countries, we learn from each other, we travel around the world, we get acquainted with interesting practices in other cities, we study new interesting ideas to try to apply them in singapore we learn, and i am sure that other people come to us in the same way and see what's new in singapore and we don't make a secretary out of it. thank you so much. thank you.
