Little red dot (original) (raw)
"Little red dot" (or "The Red Dot", or "Little Red Dot") is a nickname often used in the media, and in casual conversation, as a reference to Singapore. It refers to how the nation is depicted on many maps of the world and of Asia as a red dot. The city-state comprising the main island and all its islets – a total land area of no more than 718.3 square kilometres (277.3 sq mi; 177,500 acres) – is much smaller than its Southeast Asian neighbours. In 2015, Singapore celebrated its Golden Jubilee, the 50th anniversary of its independence, with the term "SG50" depicted inside a red dot.

| dbo:abstract | Pequeño punto rojo (en inglés: Little Red Dot) o simplemente Red Dot (Punto Rojo) es un apodo utilizado frecuentemente en medios de comunicación y conversaciones informales para referirse a la República de Singapur. Se refiere a cómo se representa a dicha nación en muchos mapas de Asia y del mundo como un punto rojo debido a su reducido tamaño. La Ciudad-Estado, que comprende la isla principal de Singapur y todos sus islotes, posee una superficie total de no más de 718.3 kilómetros cuadrados (277.3 millas cuadradas; 177,500 acres) y es, por lo tanto, mucho más pequeña que sus vecinos en el Sudeste Asiático. El término fue popularizado en 1998 cuando fue empleado por el entonces presidente de Indonesia, Jusuf Habibie, para referirse a Singapur en lo que fue tomado por un gesto despectivo (algo que él negó). Posteriormente, la expresión fue reapropiada por figuras políticas y ciudadanos singapurenses en una forma positiva, exaltando el éxito económico e internacional del país a pesar de sus limitaciones físicas.

The city-state comprising the main island and all its islets – a total land area of no more than 718.3 square kilometres (277.3 sq mi; 177,500 acres) – is much smaller than its Southeast Asian neighbours. The term gained wide publicity in 1998 when the third President of Indonesia B. J. Habibie used it to refer to Singapore in what possibly appeared to be a disparaging manner, though this was denied by him. The term was quickly adopted by both Singaporean politicians and citizens with pride and a sense of the nation's success despite its physical limitations. In 2015, Singapore celebrated its Golden Jubilee, the 50th anniversary of its independence, with the term "SG50" depicted inside a red dot. (en) "Little red dot" (atau "The Red Dot", "Little Red Dot"; bahasa Indonesia: Titik merah kecil) adalah julukan Singapura yang sering dipakai di media atau percakapan biasa. Kata ini muncul karena Singapura ditandai dengan titik merah di peta dunia dan peta Asia. Dengan total luas daratan 7.183 kilometer persegi (2.773 sq mi; 1.775.000 ekar), negara kota ini sangat mungil bila dibandingkan dengan negara-negara tetangganya. Istilah ini dipopulerkan oleh mantan Presiden Indonesia B. J. Habibie yang menggunakannya seolah-olah seperti sindiran. Habibie sendiri mengaku tidak berniat menyindir. Istilah ini diakui dengan bangga oleh politikus dan warga Singapura karena mencerminkan kesuksesan sebuah negara dengan segala keterbatasannya. Pada tahun 2015, Singapura merayakan 50 tahun kemerdekaannya dengan merilis logo titik merah bertuliskan "SG50". (in) |
