Like the shifting patterns in a kaleidoscope, the rituals, ceremonies, prayers, and customs of all the world's major religions meet the eye of a visitor to Southeast Asia. Intrepid travelers will spend many hours "doing temples," and their weary feet will carry them up hundreds of steps and through miles of courtyards. Their cameras will click unceasingly, recording images of Buddha, of Jesus, of Rama, and of the pantheon of Hindu and Chinese gods. They will take pictures of mosques with golden domes and of minarets festooned with loudspeakers. At night, if they are in Malaysia or Indonesia, they may turn on the TV and listen to a Koran-reading competition.
A quick glance at the calendar in Singapore demonstrates the impact of multiple faiths on a modern society. The government of multiracial Singapore is basically Chinese. The only holiday when these hardworking people close up shop altogether is the Chinese new year. Nevertheless, the government recognizes holidays sacred to four religions. Important Buddhist, Islamic, and Hindu occasions are public holidays as well.
