Kazakh folklore often tell of different worlds, diverse realms in which folk heroes explore to find meaning and purpose. One of Kazakhstan’s most famous tales, of a magic garden that provides sustenance and refuge, is in the same vein as the Singapore Pavilion as it styles itself as a terrarium – a different world and a microcosm of a nation that is continually striving to be self-reliant in spite of its size. The terrarium speaks of both Singapore’s reputation as a city in a garden, as well as our efforts to create an ecosystem where we are ambitious, yet clear-headed, in generating effective solutions for a sustainable future.
