Moving to Singapore
Singapore is a fantastic destination with a long and established history with Great Britain, through the East India Company, which was managed by Sir Stamford Raffles who established a trading settlement on the island, which set in motion, the history of Singapore.

Singapore today, is a sanctuary for sustainability, with lush natural landscapes, beautiful gardens plus tranquil oases of greenery, dotting the urban landscape. Singapore has also adopted the moniker – a city that never sleeps. A haven for urban wellness, where the hustle and bustle of city life, is tempered with the opportunity to relax and rejuvenate. Singapore has a reputation of being an exciting food paradise destination, with Michelin Starred restaurants along with new bars and eateries, which supply gastronomical delights.

Singapore’s name is itself derived from ‘Singa Pura’, meaning “Lion City.” Legend has it that a prince from Palembang, gave this name to the island after he came ashore and saw a creature, he believed to be a lion. The destination has a vibrant expat community, and is a city where enchantment awaits around every corner. If you’re planning to move to Singapore, visitors and new expats are encouraged to visit to the world’s tallest indoor waterfall, which is housed in a fantastic retail and lifestyle complex in the Jewel of Changi Airport and the Night Safari, the world’s first nocturnal zoo located in Mandai, Singapore.
