Singapura, the lion city.

Singapore was used to be called Temasek.

Here's how Sang Utama found singapore:

1.Sang Utama caught sight of an island across the sea.

The island had sand so white that it look like a piece of cloth

2.He asked one of his ministers, Indra Bopal, "What place is that?"
Indra Bopal answered, "Your Highness, that land is known as Temasek."
"Let's us sail to that land" Sang Utama said

3. A violent storm broke out during the Journey.
The anxious boatman said to the ruler that the boat was sinking because if the king's crown.
 The storm subsided only when Sang Utama threw his crown overboard

4. The boat finally landed.
Sang Utma and his ministers went to the island to hunt wild animals.

5. While hunting, Sang Utama saw a fast-moving beast that had a red body and a black head.
He asked his minister what the creature was.
One of them finally said, "Your Highness, I heard in ancient times it was a lion that had that appearance.
I think we must have seen a lion.

6. Sang utama agreed with his ministers that sighting a lion was a good sign.
He decided to establish a city at Temasek, which he called Singapura or Lion City.
