Ask any Singaporean what the country's favourite local pastime is, and there's a good chance they will say "eating". Singapore's food courts, known as hawker centres, are one of the country's most-loved institutions, providing meals and local delights for as little as S$3 ($2.4; £1.5).

Without them , many young workers would probably starve... or turn to western fast foods.

We're talking about Asia. Of course they will survive.
