::I suspect this is referring to Singapore's rather strict penal code - you can't discard a candy wrapper without being heavily fined, and God forbid you should actually commit an act of vandalism because you'll find your backside bleeding from the impact of a heavy bamboo cane. These laws are seen by many as infringing civil liberties, but on the other hand the place is nice and tidy... :-| Lee M 04:27, 28 Sep 2003 (UTC)

message: :Image:Future SG skyline.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is  other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.

Note that Singapore always appear in the lower quartile on the differently types of crime, therefore makin Singapore a country with a low crime rate.

message: use of paragraphs like "allows people to explore Asian, African and American habitats at night without any visible barriers between guests and the wild animals", "prime example of the ethnic diversity of the culture of Singapore. In Singapore's hawker centres – a technical misnomer, to be precise – for example, traditionally Malay hawker stalls selling halal food may serve halal versions of traditionally Tamil or Chinese food. Chinese stalls may introduce Malay or Indian ingredients" and  "Shoppers can enjoy great discounts and bargains at participating outlets".
