We only know things we want to know.
What is Singapore?

i think the questions u raise were a little different
well i know Doha is Qatar, a middle east country
which african economy i hv no idea
heck i dun even know which south east asian economy, never mind african
but country ? maybe u say Tuvalu or mistaken San Marino as being territory of Italy, or dunno East Pakistan, even Burma or Ceylon, can understand ..... but Singapore, which most Fortune500 companies hv a representation here ?? well well ....

ps best selling book i believe is the Bible
novel, maybe Harry Potter ?

the question were raised to illustrate what we term as general knowledge is relative to the person.
Americans are very inward looking people.
They wont know about Singapore without such events.

I only knew of Doha after some event, some conference. Trade agreement?

Nigeria is the largest economy in Africa, not SA.

The best selling novel ( sorry not book ) over 500 million copies
is Don Quixote.

I see those who are kind of anti PAP, in 2 groups. 1 would be totally anti. Anything PAP does are wrong. The other are vocal on what's not good but can rationalize what is good, more balance view.

The same applies to pro PAP.

yes .... that's exactly what i am saying ..... that this search of
" where is Singapore " by these inward looking people are of no value ......

well, unless they think the venue of the Trump-Kim meeting is the site of Singapore in Michigan, USA
Of which, really I won't be surprised

those people who will travel, will come to Singapore, is likely to already know
" where is Singapore "

If you're referring to the tweet by Donald Trump, it was photoshopped. The original tweet was "Thank you Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong".
