With a total land area of 646 square kilometres and a population of 5 million, Singapore is compact in size yet an enormous commercial hub at the gateway to SE Asia and the world. Singapore's climate is warm and humid, with temperatures ranging from 23 to 33 degrees Celsius. Expect plenty of sunshine, with the occasional rain storm, especially during the year-end periods.
Renowned for its low crime rate, political stability, high standards of living and excellent MRT transport system, Singapore is the ideal environment to gain a recognised educational qualification.
