SINGAPORE: Mr Simon Wong, Singapore High Commissioner to India, posted a photo on X on Oct 8 of an official road sign in Delhi which showed Singapore spelt as “Singapur.”
Fortunately, even if it was a Sunday morning, officials were on the alert and made the corrections swiftly. A few hours later, Mr Wong posted another photo of the now-corrected sign, writing, “Thank you for the quick fix.” And while many netizens were happy once the error was rectified, on a Sunday no less, others pointed out that the “O” in the corrected sign looked more like a zero “0”, which for them technically still makes it incorrect. “SINGAP--RE,” wrote one. The board, they pointed out, had not been changed, although they admitted that the error had been corrected.
