Description |
Singapore prides itself on its diverse melting pot of cultures; it has a multicultural community made up of different practices, trades, religious traditions, cuisines, and heritage of many cultures. Hence, Singapore’s list of ICH is wide-ranging. The National Heritage Board (NHB), Singapore, has created an inventory that identifies and documents the various elements of ICH that are present and practiced in Singapore. Through this inventory, NHB aims to document and share information on Singapore’s ICH and to promote greater awareness, appreciation, and sustainability of its diverse cultures, traditions, and practices. |
