The Chinese are predominantly followers of Buddhism, Taoism and Christianity with some irreligious exceptions. Malays are mostly Muslims, and Indians are mostly Hindus, but with significant numbers of Muslims and Sikhs from the Indian ethnic groups. Religion is still an integral part of cosmopolitan Singapore.
