Singapore, officially the Republic of Singapore, is a Southeast Asian island city-state off the southern tip of the Malay Peninsula, 137 kilometers north of the equator.

That said, PhD recipients are able to engage in thought experiments, reason about problems, and solve problems in sophisticated ways.
