Excellent educational conditions

The Singapore government regards talents as its greatest resource and attaches great importance to cultivating talents.

In terms of education, we have hired senior foreign teachers to teach, established multiple scholarships such as the "Presidential Scholarship" and "Public Service Scholarship", selected outstanding teachers to study in prestigious universities around the world, and established solid partnerships with universities and scientific research institutions in developed countries such as Europe and the United States. A number of other measures have been taken to cultivate batches of elites.

In Singapore's annual fiscal budget, education expenditures have ranked second for many years, second only to defense expenditures.

Beautiful environment

Singapore is known as the "Garden City". When you walk on the streets of Singapore, you can see green spaces and parks everywhere. The streets are lined with lush trees, and the roofs of buildings and mid-level terraces are also made into "sky gardens". You will feel relaxed and happy~

In addition, Singapore's year-round temperature ranges from 24°C to 32°C, making the climate very pleasant.

Singapore

safe society

Singapore is a typical society governed by the rule of law, with complete laws and regulations. From the political system, economic management, basic rights and obligations of citizens, to daily public health and garbage disposal, there are specific and rigorous regulations, so that all behaviors are legal. If there is a law, we must abide by it and enforce the law strictly.

At the same time, Singapore has a complete security system and night lighting system. Surveillance and night lights basically cover the streets and alleys. Residents feel safe walking alone on the streets at night.

Perfect medical level

Singapore's medical standards are very high and are highly praised internationally.

Currently, 13 hospitals and medical institutions in Singapore have obtained Joint Commission International (JCI) quality certification, accounting for one-third of the certified medical institutions in Asia. Many overseas people choose to go to Singapore in pursuit of advanced medical technology and a good medical environment.

Singapore

food safety

Food is the most important thing for the people. Singapore attaches great importance to dietary health and has formulated regulations to regulate all aspects of food production to ensure that residents can eat with peace of mind and eat healthily.

In addition, if you go to a supermarket in Singapore, you will see words such as "natural coloring, no artificial additives, less salt" printed on the ingredient list of most packaged foods.
