The Singapore Botanic Gardens has made it as a UNESCO World Heritage Site! A great Jubilee year gift to Singaporeans. :)
The Gardens played an important part in making Singapore a Garden City. Besides supplying shrubs and trees for our parks and roadsides, the Gardens also trained horticulturalists in the school of ornamental horticulture.
We all have happy memories visiting the Gardens, soaking in the greenery and tranquillity, and enjoying the company of family and friends.
Congratulations to the National Heritage Board, NParks and Ministry of Culture, Community and Youth - MCCY who have worked so hard for this successful inscription. – LHL

Today is International Women’s Day. On this day each year, we acknowledge and celebrate women, and recommit ourselves to help them achieve their needs and aspirations.
This year in particular, we are Celebrating SG Women. This campaign will champion women and their role in shaping Singapore, and the indelible mark they will leave in our future. The goal is shaping a more equitable and inclusive society, and a culture of mutual respect for all.
I have had the privilege of meeting many women contributing in diverse roles to the nation. From community leaders to everyday homemakers, you have all played a part in making Singapore that we know today, and I’m excited to see where we will go from here! – LHL

Happy to meet President Obama again today. His regular meetings with ASEAN reflect his and America’s commitment to our region.
We last met President Obama at the ASEAN+US meeting in Kuala Lumpur last November (on.fb.me/1QEvwKY). There we raised ASEAN-US relations to a Strategic Partnership. Glad we are following up with this two-day Summit here in Sunnylands.
This afternoon we focused on how to promote an innovative, entrepreneurial ASEAN Economic Community. Singapore welcomes the US initiative to help ASEAN do this, which will complement our individual efforts.
We have much to learn from American entrepreneurial culture. I personally found my meetings with companies and personalities in Silicon Valley last week useful. Talking to Singaporeans in the Valley, it was clear that they are learning a lot and benefitting from the exposure.
Looking forward to our working dinner tonight. - LHL

[HAS MCDONALD'S CONQUERED ASIA?]
If McDonald's were a country, it's revenue would make it the 105th largest economy in the world, surpassing the GDP of Estonia, Cambodia & Afghanistan.
The number of McDonald's employees worldwide would be more than the entire population of Iceland, Barbados and Samoa.
It's a big company, but it wasn't always that way.
McDonald's was founded on May 15th, 1940 in San Bernardino, California - that's over 77 years ago - and has since expanded to a 120 countries and territories around the world, serving 68 million customers each day.
It took 27 years for the first McDonald's to appear outside of the US, and 31 years to make it's way to a second continent.
THIS continent was Asia, and in this video I'm going to take you through the next 46 years of McDonald's' Asian ascension.
So, which Asian country was the FIRST to open a McDonald's? What did McDonalds have to sacrifice in order compete with local markets? And how much of Asia is there still left to conquer, as of today?
We'll get into all of that, so grab a double cheeseburger (maybe some fries), and we'll explore every Asian country to have ever had a McDonald's.
Welcome to McAsia.
Some notable McDonald's branches in Asian countries are:
- McDonald's Japan for being the first Asian McDonald's ever.
- McDonald's Singapore for having the oldest McDonald's employee worldwide at 93 years old.
- McDonald's Malaysia for being the first McDonald's in a Muslim-majority country.
- McDonald's Turkey for being the first McDonald's in West Asia (Middle East).
- McDonald's South Korea to be the first to sell alcohol (beer).
- McDonald's Russia for having the largest McDonald's outlet in Asia in Pushkin Square, Moscow.
- McDonald's Israel for having the healthiest McDonald's in the world.
- McDonald's Saudi Arabia for oddly taking out a full page ad in a Saudi national newspaper swearing loyalty to the new crown prince.
- McDonald's India for being the first McDonald's in South Asia, as well as having the first vegetarian McDonald's in the world.
- McDonald's Pakistan for having served the Taliban at one point in time.
- McDonald's Georgia for having the chain's most exquisite outlet.
- McDonald's Iraq for only having ONE McDonald's outlet for the US Army stationed in Baghdad.
- McDonald's Kazakhstan for being the first McDonald's in Central Asia.
