Other
Religions in Singapore (9%)
Apart from the major religions,
there are some other religious followers here in Singapore.
There are sixteen Sikh organizations, and seven Gurdwaras (Sikh
temples). Besides, there are two Jewish synagogues, while the
Zoroastrians and Jains, the followers of Mahavira, possess no
temples.
In conclusion, customary
religious beliefs and practices strictly remain in Singapore, as
evidenced by many major religious celebrations held annually
with numerous people attending them. On the other hand, the
government is well aware of the differences in each religion,
which firstly ingrain into people's minds since at home, then
school, and society. Religious differences can bear both
positive and negative consequences, and the government perceives
them well. The campaign to harmonize different ethnic groups to
one nation is extremely hard, but so far there's no religious
conflict that burst out. This can be totally considered as a
successful work of the Singapore's government.
