SINGAPORE F1

It is amazing right! When I chanced upon all these pictures of Singapore Formula I, WORLD FIRST NIGHT RACE ( my second home country pet peeves) I just have to share with you guys.

Truely, the skyline was the showcase of the Singapore Status Symbol and it is hosting amazing race. Even though I am just an ordinary folk staying in a rental flat, I am out and proud of my 2nd home, the Singapore. It has come to this far and put larger ASEAN counterparts to shame. Much credits to the its' founding father MM Lee and his teams, they build up strength to strength and establish Singapore as world first in many aspects with its tiny size and population.

Of course there were moaning and graoning from the general population at large but unlike many other states around the region, this small islands is the only first world country. Well when we have times we will talk more about how great Singapore is...

Now let just enjoy the photos of first ever world night race that triggered many country heads to stand up and think of following suits..
