Dragons appear prominently in chinese culture. They represent strength, the highest authority, the most auspicious, excellence. Singapore is a predominantly Chinese city-state, close to 90% of the population. They are descended from immigrant Chinese who came during the British rule in the 19th and early 20th C. \n\nThe current Prime Minister's given name means dragon, 'Loong'. though I doubt if there'd be any real association to it.

For 140 years (1819-1959), the Union Jack flew over Singapore. Then, on 3 December 1959, the National Flag, an important symbol of independence, was unveiled at the installation of the new Head of State, the Yang di-Pertuan Negara. Also unveiled that day were the State Crest and the National Anthem. The flag was conceived and created by a committee headed by the then Deputy Prime Minister, Dr Toh Chin Chye.\n\nThe Flag consists of two horizontal halves, red above white. Red symbolises universal brotherhood and equality of men; white, purity and virtue. In the upper left corner, a white crescent moon and five white stars form a circle. The crescent moon represents a young nation on the rise. The five stars stand for Singapore's ideals of democracy, peace, progress, justice and equality.

Nobody really knows for sure how much reserves we have in Singapore. Even the President who is supposed to protect it, probably has no idea.\n\nIt may be in the several hundreds of billions, mostly invested in overseas industrial projects and companies.
