Independence of Singapore, So what?
Although some people thought that it was a bad idea both economically and financially,most people were happy that they were not under any other government but themselves,their own people.It was a joyful day for Singaporeans as they gained independence and not forgetting to mention, they had to go through tough challenges such as riots and the racial harmony peace among the different races.Nonetheless, they prevailed with a President that was elected by the people and now an independent nation and a republic.
If Singapore does not become an independent country, they would have to rely on their neighboring countries to support them whenever they need resources such as food,water and shelter.Even the National Service would not have been created and they would have been defenseless and as such, rely on others to do defend the country.
In conclusion, based on the points that have been stated, it means a whole lot for Singaporeans in the independence of the country.Without it, they would not have been where they are at now.
