https://padlet.com/t0374582h/hiproject1opal2017 Hi Project by Lin Chan , ZhuoFan , Ray , Vignesh , Joel... en-us 2017-08-11 03:38:43 UTC 2025-09-27 22:38:52 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/icons/Growing.png t0374582h https://padlet.com/t0374582h/hiproject1opal2017/wish/180696285 Singapore had many cultural exchanges taking place and cultural connections with the world.

There were broken stem cups and the Sri Lankan coins found at Fort Canning, we can infer that Singapore had many cultural exchanges taking place and probably exchanged ideas about traditions,clothing and with countries such as Sri Lanka and China. Broken stem cups originated from China and Sri Lankan coins originated from Sri Lanka.China may have influenced Singapore through the exchange of ideas about pottery and ceramics, allowing cultural exchanges to take place.Sri Lanka may have influenced Singapore about the  coins and their type of currency, allowing cultural exchanges to occur.

Singapore's population was small before 1819 Singapore has always been a small fishing village before the British East India Company chose the island for a trading port in 1819.According to the map of singapore river,there is only a few house so it mean that Singapore's  populationwas small that time and from the picture we also can conclude  that in that time Temenggond is the richest as he have a bigger house compare to the other people

Siam protection for Temasek is very strong and immediate.
The fifth ruler of Singapura was a rebel prince from Palembang called Parameswara.He found Temasek a successful port although a vassal of the King of Siam. He killed the ruler, Tamagi, to take over the throne. He fled when the Siamese armies came to take revenge on Parameswara due to the death of Temasek's ruler. He fled northwards and eventually establised the new trading port of Melaka.

This shows how immediate and determined the Siamese were to kill the rebel prince which tells us that Siam was very protection of Temasek

The gold armlet have the design of Kala,the hindu god representing time and destruction,this design can be found in Javanese art and temple designs.The armlet is from mid of 14th century ,made by Java,one of the way could be found in Temasek(Singapore)is that people from Java travel to SIngapore to trade.]]> 2017-08-11 03:45:06 UTC https://padlet.com/t0374582h/hiproject1opal2017/wish/180696391 t0374582h https://padlet.com/t0374582h/hiproject1opal2017/wish/180696431 Judging by all the sources gathered.We made a conclusion that 
The Population in Singapore previously before 1819 was small,

There is economy connection (trade) in Singapore.Singapore interept with the world.

There is also Cultural connection in Singapore like with China

Singapore's military is weak,it is protected by other countries.

Singapore had political connection with Siamese, and was the vassal state of Siam.
Kwa Chong Guan wrote 'Sri Roma Wikerma died in 1375 and was succeded by his son, who acknowledged the overlordship of the Siamese over Temasek or Singapura. It became a vassal state of Siam
I chose this source because it tells me that Siam had overlordship over Temasek or Singapura. It also tells me that the king of Temasek acknowledged the overlordship officially.

While other country use guns,lt also show that
Singapore's own military was weak.As they don't have Powerful weapon to attack.
However It also show that Singapore had 
Connections with other countries and also show that Singapore had military defences against other
Countries that may attempt to attack them.

The picture below show part of plates and utensils,as well as Spittoons with traditional Chinese patterns which is from China.It is use by the Chinese in Ming/Song Dynasties(明朝，宋朝）  China.However it is found in Singapore(Johor River)dated 16th-17th centuries.

So I infer that Singapore have Cultural connection with the China before 1819 as they are exchanging culture.
