Singapore! Modern, clean, safe, friendly, open, mixed, ancient, cosmopolitan, expensive, there are inadequate words to describe this marvel. Best public transport in the world. Highest percentage of home ownership anywhere. The most laws per capita, but basically they proscribe bad manners. The people are more free due to their community being kept safe, clean, free and open. Ask the locals, they love it. New grows next to the old, with all people working. Best "First Trip" to South East Asia.
