Once Mr Lee Kuan Yew, Founding father of the modern State of Singapore, offered the Singapore’s political experience to Vladimir Putin during their meeting. He was not heard and Putin claimed that Russia must have its own way in Eurasia, dissimilar with the Singapore’s one. Almost twenty years have passed since those times. Russian political elites did not opt to learn anything from the Singapore’s socio-political experience. Now Russia faces the situation to be disregarded as a Eurasian power and thrown at the border of new Eurasian communication routes withal. An analysis of possibilities to use Singapore’s rich legal and cultural achievements in the modern socio-political Russian realities, is proposed in the paper.
