Dear Diary,

Today, I did an interesting project on Singapore's political connections,economic connections and defense before 1819!

Balinese or Javanese.They traded a gold armlet with design of Kala which represents time and destruction.Singapore also traded porcelain-stem cups with the Chinese from China.The porcelain-stem cups were produced in Yuan Dynasty before 1819.On top of that, I found out that Singapore's defence was strong as they had spearheads to hunt animals.Singapore also used spearheads to fight with enemies for defense.Lastly, I found out that Majaphit Kingdom claimed superiority against Singapore and attacked Singapore.Bye diary,see you tomorrow!
