little red dot...?

Was in a hurry just now, so I could only test out a one liner. Anyway, just to share a bit of myself... I'm from a place called 'a little red dot'. It's actually a derisive term spouted by a neighbouring country's leader some years ago. Quite obviously, he wasn't in the best of moods when he created the label.

So, the little moniker stuck, so much so that even our country's leaders have used it on occasions. Well, in case you're still wondering, the 'little red dot' refers to the little island called Singapore - a resource-scarce little place, where from the top of the tallest building in the Central Business District, you can see the east and west shores. It is also one of the most crowded places on earth... I can't recall if Hong Kong beat us to No 1 spot, but I'm sure it's between us and them. It's also a place where I call home for close to 20 years now... Time sure flies!
