Singapore’s Most Iconic Photo of 2011
The most iconic photo of 2011 must be this photo below that represents the Singapore of today.
One Facebook user quipped that “Behind a Singapore Parliament stands the house of Gambling” referring to the popular quote “Behind a successful man is a woman”.
For those unaware of Singapore’s geography, the building in the foreground is Singapore’s Parliament House, while that behind is Marina Bay Sands, one of the integrated casino resorts in Singapore.
However, the three towers of Marina Bay Sands remind most Singaporeans of ”three giant joss sticks” being offered to the Chinese Gods.
