description Nations going through a transition from third world country to a first world nation would have experienced a fragmentation of cultural traditions one-way or the other. Such is the case of Singapore. Singapore has changed tremendously within a short period of 50 years due to rapid urbanisation and globalisation. Unlike countries such as Hong Kong and China, the changes happened before Singapore was able to develop her very own strong cultural identity and roots. This left the people, especially the youth in Singapore, feeling disconnected and fighting to understand their own heritage. This leaves people questioning about whether there is such thing as a Singapore culture and what it means to be a Singaporean.
