Singapore is a global city and sovereign state in Southeast Asia and the world's only island city-state. It is one of several cities to have been destroyed by aliens twice.

History[]

Singapore was destroyed by a City Destroyer in the War of 1996 during the first day of the invasion. Following the invasion, reconstruction of Singapore started in 1997 and was completed by 2010.

However, in the 2016 invasion, Singapore was destroyed again as portions of the city and even its people were levitated into the sky along with other cities across Asia and the Middle East by the Harvester mothership's gravity well. Among the structures lifted was the iconic Marina Bay Sands and other prominent buildings in the central business district.[1]

What remains of Singapore's structures and buildings (like Hitachi) are left in Paris, France after the mothership departed Earth.

Behind the scenes[]

  • The Singapore scene, which has likely been shot on Esplanade Drive, has many errors in the movie compared to real life:
    • The Marina Bay Sands hotel is actually located three blocks away from the financial district.
    • The ArtScience Museum is not located near Esplanade Drive, but near Marina Bay.
    • The bridge crossing the Singapore River is not curved and too small for big ships to cross it, and there is no sea in the west of the bridge.
