Indians in Singapore popularly known as IIS is one such strong community of more than 7500 people originated from India working or staying in Singapore. Kartik Budhraja a media professional who has been working in Singapore since 2001 is a creator of IIS which is most probably the first community for Indian in Singapore on orkut.com. When Kartik joined orkut in 2004 he didn’t found any community addressing Indians in Singapore and so IIS came into existence but Kartik never took it seriously till the community member’s statistic reached 1000 in a year, organically. Kartik started administrating the community more actively, though he gives more credits to the moderators Raj and Munjal and all members of IIS. Now, after 4 years IIS is looking well organized, strong, active and more authentic community of Indians making there living in Singapore. IIS welcomes every Indian who is new to Singapore or who is living in Singapore for long. The whole IIS community is a combination into 2 different groups of people, one are those who are new to Singapore and want to get help in making there lifestyle easy and sophisticated and other group is who are staying in Singapore from long and has knowledge and information to help those who are new and need their assistance.
The forum of IIS (Indians in Singapore) is packed of useful threads started by their dedicated members and loyal moderators. From job seekers or recruiters, accommodation help or where to get pure vegetarian Indian food, IIS is having a big database of all useful information about Singapore and Indians in Singapore, IIS members as active online and at same time also doing good while offline, like arranging get-togethers, or meetings which could help them in make there bond stronger. As reaching high with a strong community, Kartik is very optimistic about future of IIS, disclosing in a brief chat on Rated-WOW Community on orkut Kartik said that he really wants to make IIS more big and strong community on World Wide Web with its all presence and not let Google profit from there hard work. Probably he is disappointed by Google ads on his community. Nevertheless, Kartik is thankful to orkut for giving such a wonderful place to interact with so many people.
