TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - The level of tourist visits to a country is determined by various factors. One of these factors is security. In 2024, Singapore became the champion. Reported by the Times of India, the lion country is the safest country for tourists based on the latest Forbes Advisor study. This study analyzed various security factors in 60 global destinations and gave Singapore a perfect score, indicating a very low level of risk in all aspects assessed.

This success is supported by a combination of strict laws, high-quality infrastructure, a sophisticated health system, and strong digital security, making Singapore an ideal destination for tourists who prioritize safety.

Reported by camp-cosmos.com, one of the main factors that makes Singapore very safe is its strict legal system and enforcement. The government implements strict legal policies with severe penalties for serious crimes such as drugs and violence, which effectively prevent criminal acts. As a result, the crime rate in this country is very low, allowing tourists to travel safely, even at night.

In addition, the quality of health services in Singapore also contributes greatly to its safety ranking. With a modern and efficient healthcare system, both locals and tourists can access high-quality medical services quickly.

In fact, Singapore is recognized as one of the countries with the highest healthy life expectancy, as stated by Jan-Emmanuel De Neve of Oxford University. This provides peace of mind for travelers who may encounter health emergencies during their travels.

Infrastructure security is also a major advantage of Singapore. The country has a safe and reliable public transportation system, including MRT and buses that are equipped with strict supervision. Well-maintained roads and public facilities further enhance the comfort and safety of travelers while traveling around the city.

In the digital era, cybersecurity is becoming an increasingly important aspect, and Singapore excels in this regard. With a strict digital security system and strong regulations, the risk of data theft or cyber attacks in this country is very low. Travelers can use the internet and conduct digital transactions safely without fear of privacy violations or misuse of personal information.

In addition to physical and digital security, Singapore is also known for its high personal safety. The presence of CCTV cameras at various strategic points and the rapid response of the police create a safe environment for everyone. The government also implements strict public order policies, ensuring the comfort and safety of every individual, both locals and tourists.

Overall, Singapore has built a security ecosystem that covers various aspects of life. From legal policies to infrastructure, from healthcare to digital security, all these elements work together to create a safe and comfortable environment for tourists. With these achievements, it is no wonder that Singapore has been named the safest country to visit, making it an ideal tourist destination for those who prioritize safety and peace of mind while traveling.
