Singa the Lion

Esta es la mascota de Singapur creado en 1982 que representa la amabilidad.
Existe una campanya para promover la cortesia entre los habitantes de Singapur "Singapore Kindness Movement" http://www.kindness.sg/index.aspx
Singa reparte por las calles abrazos y sonrisas y hace campanyas de cortesia para recordarnos a todos la importancia de ser amables.
En esta foto Singa, sonriendo y con los brazos abiertos, esta listo para recibir a todos los turistas que vienen a ver la F1.
