	Singapore, which is 1 degree north of the equator, has very little
fluctuation in temperature.  During "Winter" the temperatures range from about
70 F to 80 F and during "Summer" the termperatures range from about 75 F to 90
F.  If you don't like humidity or are not used to it then the Singapore climate
might seem kind of uncomfortable but one can certainly get used to it.
Compared to other tropical cities of similar climate, Singapore is probably the
most pleasant because the government makes it a point to fill the city with
lots of green vegetation.  Anyone from a tropical region knows that such
vegetation will make an enormous differrence in the relative climate.
