I'd like to nominate Singapore. Strangely enough, I have been there 4 times and it's the 4th time (last April) that I truly appreciated it and truly enjoyed visiting it with my family. One main reason I guess is because this last time I stayed for 5 days and the previous ones were only a couple of days.
1. Very friendly. From the moment I needed some info at the airport, the people were always smiling and so friendly in answering questions.
2. Super clean. I believe this place may be one of the top 2 cleanest in Asia, with Japan in my mind as well. No graffiti, no litter basically, the street cement are so white it's like it was poured yesterday. Yeah, I heard they implemented a very stiff fine for littering and chewing gums.
3. Safe. I feel so safe though I hardly saw policemen on the street. They say any crime can be monitored on hidden CCTV and crimes are solved very quickly. One can sense it's a very orderly and peaceful society.
4. Convenient and stress free transportation. Taxis are relatively inexpensive. MRT subway is very clean and not congested even in rush hour not like HK. People walk in a very relaxed manner and not always running or bumping into people.
5.Excellent tourist attractions. From Sentosa Nature Park to Universal Studios to Night Safari, there are so many places to visit with your kids.
6. Great shopping malls. High end malls (Vivo City, Ion Mall, Marina Sands Hotel Mall) are not only high end, they look high tech! One of the most luxurious and impressive malls I've seen in my travels.
7. Nice places to eat. From the famous Singapore Food Street to Kopitiams to fine dinings along Orchard Road and inside hotels, one get a variety of Malay and Chinese food to choose from, not to mention Indian food.
8. One stop shop high end audio building. Located in Adelphi Center, it's like a five story building full of high end audio shops. MBL, Thiel, Krell, B&W are all over, with a few vinyl stores inside. This one is really interesting to us.
A close friend who just visited the country upon my suggestion came back with basically the same feedback as me, and he calls it the closest to a 'utopian society' that he has ever seen, and I agree.
