In this small city-state with just under 56 years of national independence under its belt, cleanliness has been synonymous with major social progress, unprecedented economic growth and, most recently, <a href="https://covid19.who.int/region/wpro/country/sg" style="background: transparent; color: #589e50; font-weight: bold; text-decoration-line: none;" target="_blank">a coordinated containment of the coronavirus pandemic</a>.</p><p style="font-size: 1.8em; letter-spacing: -0.1px; line-height: 1.55556em; margin: 1.55556em 20.6562px 0px 82.6562px; padding-left: 8px; padding-right: 8px;">While Singaporeans themselves tend to humbly shrug off the suggestion their country is especially clean, its leaders have done everything they can to procure and maintain a pristine public image. "Singapore's clean reputation is something the government consciously sought to promote," explained Donald Low, a Singaporean academic and public policy scholar. "Originally, that cleanliness had at least two connotations: the first was physical, or environmental, cleanliness; the second was a clean government and society that didn't tolerate corruption.</p><p style="font-size: 1.8em; letter-spacing: -0.1px; line-height: 1.55556em; margin: 1.55556em 20.6562px 0px 82.6562px; padding-left: 8px; padding-right: 8px;"><strong>You may also be interested in:</strong><br />• <a href="http://www.bbc.com/travel/story/20190317-the-three-values-that-shaped-singapore" style="background: transparent; color: #589e50; font-weight: bold; text-decoration-line: none;" target="_blank">Is this the safest city in the world?</a><br />• <a href="http://www.bbc.com/travel/story/20191006-what-japan-can-teach-us-about-cleanliness" style="background: transparent; color: #589e50; font-weight: bold; text-decoration-line: none;" target="_blank">What Japan can teach us about cleanliness</a><br />• <a href="http://www.bbc.com/travel/story/20180311-the-most-ambitious-country-in-the-world" style="background: transparent; color: #589e50; font-weight: bold; text-decoration-line: none;" target="_blank">Is Singapore suffering from FOMO?</a></p><p style="font-size: 1.8em; letter-spacing: -0.1px; line-height: 1.55556em; margin: 1.55556em 20.6562px 0px 82.6562px; padding-left: 8px; padding-right: 8px;">Having separated from Malaysia in 1965, Singapore, led by then-prime minister Lee Kuan Yew, had lofty ambitions of becoming a "first-world oasis in a third-world region", as he termed it. "As a newly independent city-state that was keen to attract foreign investments, Lee Kuan Yew believed, correctly, that these things would differentiate Singapore from the rest of South-East Asia," Low explained.</p><p style="font-size: 1.8em; letter-spacing: -0.1px; line-height: 1.55556em; margin: 1.55556em 20.6562px 0px 82.6562px; padding-left: 8px; padding-right: 8px;">In practical terms, achieving cleanliness meant developing quality sewage systems, creating programmes to combat dengue and disease, a decade-long cleanup of the heavily polluted Singapore River, island-wide tree planting and the transition of once-ubiquitous street food vendors into covered hawker centres.</p><p style="font-size: 1.8em; letter-spacing: -0.1px; line-height: 1.55556em; margin: 1.55556em 20.6562px 0px 82.6562px; padding-left: 8px; padding-right: 8px;">It also meant enacting a multitude of nationwide public hygiene campaigns appealing to Singapore's citizens to do their part. "Keeping the community clean requires a people conscious of their responsibilities," proclaimed Lee at the 1968 inauguration of <a href="https://www.nea.gov.sg/programmes-grants/campaigns/keep-sg-clean-movement" style="background: transparent; color: #589e50; font-weight: bold; text-decoration-line: none;" target="_blank">Keep Singapore Clean</a>, a now annual anti-littering initiative.

It's unlikely that he foresaw the level of global attention it would elicit when enacting the law in 1992 to combat the expense of cleaning pre-chewed gum from public places, like the then-brand new MRT (public transport) system. These days, gum consumption is, in fact, permitted – if you happen to inadvertently smuggle a half-eaten packet in your luggage here you won't be thrown in jail – but its sale remains prohibited.</p><p style="font-size: 1.8em; letter-spacing: -0.1px; line-height: 1.55556em; margin: 1.55556em 20.6562px 0px 82.6562px; padding-left: 8px; padding-right: 8px;">Low explains that the infamous gum law is actually quite anomalous in terms of Singapore policy making.

It goes without saying that the gleaming skyscrapers, boat-shaped hotels and man-made water features don't paint an accurate picture of everyday life here.

Despite its incongruity within an otherwise family-friendly city, Geylang didn't feel dangerous. Nor remotely lawless. With close to 500 security cameras spanning the neighbourhood, there was an overwhelming sense that its unruly elements – from vice to drugs – were being carefully contained and "frequently swept clean", as Yinzhou described it.</p><p style="font-size: 1.8em; letter-spacing: -0.1px; line-height: 1.55556em; margin: 1.55556em 20.6562px 0px 82.6562px; padding-left: 8px; padding-right: 8px;"></p><div class="inline-media inline-image" style="margin-left: 8px; margin-right: 8px;"><div class="inline-image-wrapper" style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.01); position: relative; transition: all 0.4s ease 0s;"><a class="responsive-image-wrapper fullsizeable" data-caption-title="" data-caption="Located on the eastern edge of central Singapore, Geylang is the only legalised red-light district in the city (Credit: Shan Shihan/Getty Images)" data-is-clickable="true" href="https://ychef.files.bbci.co.uk/1280x720/p09cxkrh.jpg" id="p09cxkrh" style="background: rgb(227, 227, 224); color: #333333; display: block; font-weight: bold; text-decoration-line: none;"><img alt="Located on the eastern edge of central Singapore, Geylang is the only legalised red-light district in the city (Credit: Credit: Shan Shihan/Getty Images)" class="responsive landscape" data-caption-title="" data-caption="Located on the eastern edge of central Singapore, Geylang is the only legalised red-light district in the city (Credit: Shan Shihan/Getty Images)" data-fixed-width-format="" data-landscape="" height="" src="https://ychef.files.bbci.co.uk/624x351/p09cxkrh.jpg" style="border: 0px; display: block; height: auto; max-width: 100%; width: 604px;" title="Located on the eastern edge of central Singapore, Geylang is the only legalised red-light district in the city (Credit: Credit: Shan Shihan/Getty Images)" width="" /></a><span class="icon-wrapper gel-icon-wrapper icon-wrapper-fullscreen" id="" style="background-color: rgba(88, 158, 80, 0.9); bottom: initial; height: 4.4em; left: auto; margin-left: 0px; margin-top: 0px; pointer-events: none; position: absolute; right: 0px; top: 0px; transition: all 0.4s ease 0s; width: 4.4em;"><span aria-hidden="true" class="gelicon gelicon--fullscreen" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; color: white; display: block; font-family: gelicons-media !important; font-size: 2.2em; letter-spacing: -0.1px; line-height: 2em; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0em; speak: none; text-align: center; transition: all 0.4s ease 0s;"></span></span></div><div class="caption-wrapper" style="background-color: #f1f1ef; overflow: hidden; padding: 1.6em 16px;"><div class="caption-lining" style="display: inline; float: left; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; position: relative; width: 572px;"><p class="caption-text caption-body" style="display: inline; float: left; font-size: 1.6em; letter-spacing: -0.1px; line-height: 1.125em; margin: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; width: 572px;">Located on the eastern edge of central Singapore, Geylang is the only legalised red-light district in the city (Credit: Shan Shihan/Getty Images)</p></div></div></div><p style="font-size: 1.8em; letter-spacing: -0.1px; line-height: 1.55556em; margin: 1.55556em 20.6562px 0px 82.6562px; padding-left: 8px; padding-right: 8px;"></p><p style="font-size: 1.8em; letter-spacing: -0.1px; line-height: 1.55556em; margin: 1.55556em 20.6562px 0px 82.6562px; padding-left: 8px; padding-right: 8px;">"This is the real Singapore", a Singaporean in our tour group declared, "it should be on every tourist checklist."

In a world that's been radically redefined by the Covid-19 crisis, good public hygiene practice can be a matter of life and death.</p><p style="font-size: 1.8em; letter-spacing: -0.1px; line-height: 1.55556em; margin: 1.55556em 20.6562px 0px 82.6562px; padding-left: 8px; padding-right: 8px;">On the world stage, <a href="https://theconversation.com/why-singapores-coronavirus-response-worked-and-what-we-can-all-learn-134024" style="background: transparent; color: #589e50; font-weight: bold; text-decoration-line: none;">Singapore's response to the coronavirus is one that has been widely lauded</a>. But unlike most nations, Singapore's handling of the pandemic hasn't been purely reactive. The nation's advanced public hygiene infrastructure meant that in many ways Singapore was already prepared.</p><p style="font-size: 1.8em; letter-spacing: -0.1px; line-height: 1.55556em; margin: 1.55556em 20.6562px 0px 82.6562px; padding-left: 8px; padding-right: 8px;">"We trained our officers in how to deal with the disinfection of infectious diseases even before Covid-19 hit our shores," explained Tai Ji Choong, Director of the Division of Public Cleanliness at Singapore's National Environment Agency. Having designed a course with Singapore Polytechnic in 2017, Choong tells me that staff were "equipped with updated skills and knowledge in disinfection techniques, disinfectant handling, safety procedures and the correct use of personal protective equipment in dealing with an infectious disease outbreak in Singapore, which proved critical when we were notified of the first Covid-19 case last year".</p><p style="font-size: 1.8em; letter-spacing: -0.1px; line-height: 1.55556em; margin: 1.55556em 20.6562px 0px 82.6562px; padding-left: 8px; padding-right: 8px;"></p><div class="inline-media inline-image" style="margin-left: 8px; margin-right: 8px;"><div class="inline-image-wrapper" style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.01); position: relative; transition: all 0.4s ease 0s;"><a class="responsive-image-wrapper fullsizeable" data-caption-title="" data-caption="Robot dogs broadcast recorded messages reminding people to observe safe distancing in public spaces (Credit: Roslan Rahman/Getty Images)" data-is-clickable="true" href="https://ychef.files.bbci.co.uk/1280x720/p09cxkq5.jpg" id="p09cxkq5" style="background: rgb(227, 227, 224); color: #333333; display: block; font-weight: bold; text-decoration-line: none;"><img alt="Robot dogs broadcast recorded messages reminding people to observe safe distancing in public spaces (Credit: Credit: Roslan Rahman/Getty Images)" class="responsive landscape" data-caption-title="" data-caption="Robot dogs broadcast recorded messages reminding people to observe safe distancing in public spaces (Credit: Roslan Rahman/Getty Images)" data-fixed-width-format="" data-landscape="" height="" src="https://ychef.files.bbci.co.uk/624x351/p09cxkq5.jpg" style="border: 0px; display: block; height: auto; max-width: 100%; width: 604px;" title="Robot dogs broadcast recorded messages reminding people to observe safe distancing in public spaces (Credit: Credit: Roslan Rahman/Getty Images)" width="" /></a><span class="icon-wrapper gel-icon-wrapper icon-wrapper-fullscreen" id="" style="background-color: rgba(88, 158, 80, 0.9); bottom: initial; height: 4.4em; left: auto; margin-left: 0px; margin-top: 0px; pointer-events: none; position: absolute; right: 0px; top: 0px; transition: all 0.4s ease 0s; width: 4.4em;"><span aria-hidden="true" class="gelicon gelicon--fullscreen" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; color: white; display: block; font-family: gelicons-media !important; font-size: 2.2em; letter-spacing: -0.1px; line-height: 2em; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0em; speak: none; text-align: center; transition: all 0.4s ease 0s;"></span></span></div><div class="caption-wrapper" style="background-color: #f1f1ef; overflow: hidden; padding: 1.6em 16px;"><div class="caption-lining" style="display: inline; float: left; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; position: relative; width: 572px;"><p class="caption-text caption-body" style="display: inline; float: left; font-size: 1.6em; letter-spacing: -0.1px; line-height: 1.125em; margin: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; width: 572px;">Robot dogs broadcast recorded messages reminding people to observe safe distancing in public spaces (Credit: Roslan Rahman/Getty Images)</p></div></div></div><p style="font-size: 1.8em; letter-spacing: -0.1px; line-height: 1.55556em; margin: 1.55556em 20.6562px 0px 82.6562px; padding-left: 8px; padding-right: 8px;"></p><p style="font-size: 1.8em; letter-spacing: -0.1px; line-height: 1.55556em; margin: 1.55556em 20.6562px 0px 82.6562px; padding-left: 8px; padding-right: 8px;">That played out in an effective rollout of public health tech solutions: mobile apps that allow citizens to acquire face masks; smart thermal scanning technologies to monitor body temperatures in large groups; and <a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/av/technology-52619568" style="background: transparent; color: #589e50; font-weight: bold; text-decoration-line: none;" target="_blank">robot dogs that patrol public parks</a> to enforce social distancing measures.</p><p style="font-size: 1.8em; letter-spacing: -0.1px; line-height: 1.55556em; margin: 1.55556em 20.6562px 0px 82.6562px; padding-left: 8px; padding-right: 8px;">While effective governance has been crucial in handling the virus, the pandemic has inevitably forced leaders to ask a lot of their citizens.

In 1601 Church of England clergyman Christopher Sutton wrote that dying well involved a deathbed and an audience of loved ones. He noted that a sudden death meant you didn't have time to say goodbye, but a long illness (aside from being painful) made you a burden to others.</p></div></div><div class="ssrcss-uf6wea-RichTextComponentWrapper e1xue1i83" data-component="text-block" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #3f3f42; font-family: ReithSans, Helvetica, Arial, freesans, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 1rem 0px; max-width: 36.25rem; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><div class="ssrcss-3z08n3-RichTextContainer e5tfeyi2" style="border: 0px; font: inherit; margin: 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><p style="border: 0px; font: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">It's now a subject for discussion among those providing end-of-life care. According to the US NGO, The National Academy of Medicine, a good death is "free from avoidable distress and suffering for patient, family and caregivers, in general accord with the patient's and family's wishes, and reasonably consistent with clinical, cultural and ethical standards".</p></div></div><div class="ssrcss-uf6wea-RichTextComponentWrapper e1xue1i83" data-component="text-block" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #3f3f42; font-family: ReithSans, Helvetica, Arial, freesans, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 1rem 0px; max-width: 36.25rem; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><div class="ssrcss-3z08n3-RichTextContainer e5tfeyi2" style="border: 0px; font: inherit; margin: 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><p style="border: 0px; font: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">If in the West the focus is often on dying with minimal pain, in Africa the emphasis may be placed on how your death will affect the community around you, according to Dr Rabi Ekore.
