Great shots of Beautiful Adam!!!

He just keeps getting better and better looking! How is that possible?

The golden lion is very significant...sure reminds me of ole Cecil ! Adam is as handsome as the lion and roars like one too. lwl!
By the way, Singa means lion and pura means city...hence Singapura / Singapore / Lion City.

Thanks Lam-my Spent 2 years in Singapore in the 70s and went back for a visit last year and never knew that, My mind wasn't as inquirying when I was younger I guess.

So many pretty pics as usual. He sounded awesome on the videos.

Hellooo Jaycee Jadam.....You are always welcome in Singapore; yea New Zealand, breathtaking country, has very close ties with us, since WWII and even now, we like New Zealand a lot; in any case we import a lot of your dairies...well, I buttered my toasts this morning with NZ butter, that is how close. lwl! Here's just a wee bit of Sing history.

Sang Nila Utama, a Srivijayan Prince, landed at the mouth of the present-day Singapore River and went inland to hunt wild animals. Suddenly, he saw a strange animal with an orange body, black head and a white neck breast. It was a fine-looking animal and moved with great speed as it disappeared into the jungle.

He asked his chief minister what animal it was and was told that it was a lion. He was pleased with this as he believed it to be a good omen—a sign of good fortune coming his way. Thus, he decided to build his new city in Temasek/ancient Singapore. He and his men stayed on the island and founded a city in 1323.

While the earliest known historical records of Singapore are shrouded by the mists of time, a third century Chinese account describes it as the "island at the end of a peninsula". Later, the city was known as Temasek ("Sea Town"), when the first settlements were established from AD 1298-1299.

However, recent studies indicate that lions have never lived in Singapore (not even Asiatic lions), and the beast seen by Sang Nila Utama was probably a tiger, most likely to be the Malayan Tiger. It was refuted by some that since tigers were many in ancient Southeast Asian regions, Sang Nila Utama and his men could have easily known a tiger when they saw one.The creature, probably a lion from spiritual realm and seen by Sang Nila Utama and his men, was marked as the guardian of Singapore. And the name of the island as Singa/Lion and Pura/City in Sanskrit stuck.

Thanks Jadam !
