Singapore

Yours truely in an older section of Singapore.

Singapore has a diverse collection of people. The major groups are Malay, Indian and Chinese. There also seems to be a large dose of Westerners at this point. One person remarked how the neighborhood had changed with all the Americans. You can see where they live because of the basketball goals on the garages. Most people live in apartment buildings or condos.

Our hosts have been making sure that no one goes hungry for more than about 30 seconds. One of the delicacies here is black pepper crab. It is truly wonderful. Yesterday for lunch we had Indian cuisine that was excellent. With all the different people there is a wide variety of choices.

HP is doing a lot of R&D work in Singapore now. I may have more trips here in the future. It is very interesting to see more of Asia. There is a lot more here than Japan. Gary has traveled throughout Asia. He has a sister in Bangkok that he a visisted a couple of times and knows more about interesting places. He has been to Myanmar and found it to be a great place.
