Raffles Hotel is a luxury hotel in Singapore, opened in 1887
28th January 1819 as on a plaque of the statue of Raffles on the bank of Singapore River
Raffles did contribute to the raising of Singapore but I think William Farquhar also deserves some of the credit. He was the person who really developed Singapore while Raffles was away. Although he did not use Raffles plan, he was quite successful.
