"El estrecho de Singapur (en inglés, Singapore Strait; chino tradicional: , chino simplificado: , pinyin: Xnjip Hixiá; en malayo: Selat Singapura) es un largo estrecho marino del sudeste de Asia localizado en el extremo meridional de la península malaya, entre la isla de Singapur, al norte, y varias de las islas del archipiélago de Riau, pertenecientes a Indonesia, al sur."Abstract from English Wikipedia:
"The Singapore Strait (simplified Chinese: ; traditional Chinese: ; pinyin: Xnjip Hixiá; Malay: Selat Singapura) is a 105-kilometer long, 16-kilometer wide strait between the Strait of Malacca in the west and the South China Sea in the east. Singapore is on the north of the channel and the Riau Islands are on the south. The Indonesia-Singapore border lies along the length of the straits. It includes Keppel Harbour and many small islands. The strait provides the deepwater passage to the Port of Singapore, which makes it very busy. The depth of the Singapore Strait defines the maximum draft of vessels going through the Straits of Malacca, and the Malaccamax ship class."
