suddenly got a random thought:

"will you be able to describe the origin of merlion to any tourist if
requested?"

seriously i don't think i can describe the story of the creature behind me...

i can only remember why singapore is a lion city, all bec of kuku mr sang nila utama who mistaken a tiger for a lion (from my understanding is that south east asia has no lion origin) that we are called lion city.. but merlion: lion head with mermaid body??

hmmm...

click here for the answer... do read ok.. don't malu us singaporeans for not knowing the origin of our national icon =))
