Who is the main founder of Singapore?

LOL ok I just learnt this in history this year. Gonna see how much I can remember. XD anyway, it depends on what is your definition of 'founder'. Most of us would automatically think, Sir Stamford Raffles. But actually, his partner, William Farquhar, was the one who made Singapore flourish and prosper. He helped with the problems Singapore faced in her early years, whereas all Raffles did was to have the amazing foresight that Singapore would be a good trading port (that's why the two of them came to Singapore). Also, there is John Crawfurd, who signed some treaty of some sort, which allowed the British to have the whole of Singapore. All in all, there is no real 'founder', all of them - all of the people in the past had a part in building up singapore's past to the present. Yeah, so, hope I helped you in some sort. ~sorry if there's any typo/wrong info~ ^^


Who founded Singapore?

Sang Nila Utama founded Singapore but Sir Stamford Raffles is the founder of modern Singapore. Juinano: However, Major William Farquhar was the major contributor to Singapore's success. Raffles just signed the treaty and left soon after, only to return at intervals to check on progress. Thus, most of Singapore's success is attributed to Major William Farquhar. Thus, he should be the rightful ruler of Singapore.
