2 Unveiling the Lion City: Unique experience of a brand-new Singapore Report by: Kliff, KN Tsang (LLB IV)

3 Preface As a fourth year Law student, I was given the opportunity to spend my previous semester in the National University of Singapore through the Faculty-based exchange programme. I had a fruitful life not limited to academic enhancement and cultural exploration, but also a taste of unique Singapore experience which tourists would never know. What did I learn? I took three law modules there, namely Equity & Trusts, Evidence and Legal Theory. The special feature of my choices of modules is that they were compulsory modules for Singapore students in different years of study. This provides me a chance to meet the majority of the NUS Law students in different years. It is a well-known fact that Singapore students work really hard. Indeed, I was inspired by their passion of academic interest and curiosity to new knowledge. As compared with rather passive attitude of HK students, Singapore students respond actively and innovatively in class. They have a close relationship with their lecturers and tutors as well. Particularly, they often chat happily in the course of teaching, and the whole classroom is full of excitement and laugh! Faculty of Law, NUS The dreamy Main Campus! Mascot of NUS: the LiNUS Moreover, since Singapore is a society with mixed cultures of Southeast Asia, the art of Singaporean languages drew my interest. As everyone knows, Singapore has four official languages, including Chinese, English, Malay and Hindi. Most signs and notices will be displayed in all four languages. But the most unique part of the Singaporean language system is that people will speak in a mixture of English, Chinese (Hokkien) and Malay, and this is what we call Singlish. According to my Singapore friends, every single word of the Singlish has its origin and story, and I find it very interesting when I figure it out where the word comes from and why it is in such form.

4 What did I do? Apart from academic studies, I engaged myself deeply in exploring cultures in Southeast Asia, particularly through the means of travelling. Locally, the visits to the Parliament, the Supreme Court, and the Istana were the most memorable part of my stay. The visits greatly enhanced my understanding towards the Singapore political and legal system, and provided me with a comparative perspective to different common law jurisdictions. After all, Singapore has long been a close competitor of Hong Kong, given the two places similarities in territory and social circumstances. Thus, I did learn a lot about Hong Kong s strengths and weaknesses, as well as the opportunities and threats, through local visits. Visiting Singapore Parliament In addition, I had an opportunity to be an audience in the political rallies since it was the time of General Election, which is held every four years. After joining the rallies, I strongly opposed the bias that Singaporeans are blind followers in politics. Oppositely, they are active in expressing their concerns and demands, as well as participating in political campaigns to show their support towards certain political agenda. Their passion in shaping a better home is no less than the political activists in Hong Kong. Most impressively, their constructive suggestions and strong bonding effect, instead of those politically-interested oppositions, attract my praise. Visiting Singapore Supreme Court Political Rally by People Action Party The Istana, office of the Singapore President

5 My exploration of Southeast Asia was not limited to the Singapore territory. Together with other exchange students, I travelled to nearby countries such as Malaysia, Vietnam and Cambodia. These three places are not new to tourists, but travelling there with a view of cultural exploration provides an eye-opening experience to me. Our trips isolated the aim for enjoyment and leisure, and in substitution it was to obtain first-hand experience of street-level living style. Walking on the muddy roads and, hanging around the museums of miserable past, all these reminded me of how difficult for human to achieve peace and prosperity. Undoubtedly, we are lucky to be born in Hong Kong, and this fact actually makes the travelling more meaningful and enriching for us. The Twin Tower, Kuala Lumpur National Mosque of Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur Christ Church, Malacca Masjid Kristal, Kuala Terengganu

7 What do I think? The most impressive thing to me is the rapid pace of development in Singapore. In just 40 years, Singapore has transformed from a fishing village into an international financial hub, with a high standard of living. The development speed even accelerates nowadays: the grand opening of Marina Bay Sands and the Universal Studio, the newly reclaimed central business district, the two nearly finished new train lines. I deeply admire their government s efficiency and their citizens resolution. The name of Garden City is also not without proof. I can enjoy the beauty of green even if I stay in the city center. You cannot image that plants and trees can be found everywhere even on the pedestrian bridge and on the sides of highway! There are also plenty of national parks and nature reserves scattered in the country. The determination of Singaporeans in conserving the environment, and hence the quality of life, should not be doubted. Skyscrapers at Raffles Place YO:HA - my hostel at Commonwealth What will I advise? Please do not trust the widespread rumour! Singapore is far more interesting and fruitful than we imagine. The beauty and loveliness of Singapore are not limited to the newly constructed Universal Studio and Marina Bay Sands. The rapid development, without sacrificing the valuable past, provides us more and more to learn from Singapore. Singapore is also a must-go place if you are a nature lover. Numerous nature reserves and gardens are located around the country. Needless to say, the country itself is a large garden. The environment makes you relax and forget about the busy urban life. As an exchange student, though the high standard of Singapore students may create pressure on your study, you should not spend much of your time hiding yourself inside the University Library. Remember to expose yourself to the sunshine in this Garden City, and enjoy your memorable life here! In the end, I would like to thank Faculty of Law of HKU and NUS for providing me such a valuable exchange opportunity, as well as the support and coordination of HKU OISE.
