Alex Singh (born June 10, 1953) was an American politician. Singh began his career in 1973 at 20 years of age and is known for his work in the creation of South City. Work for the city project began in 1972 in private but was revealed in 1973.
Singh grew up in South Australia and was born in Adelaide. Singh began his run for president but ultimately decided to stop and persue his plans to create South City. In multiple interviews with media, Singh has always expressed excitement in his plans to build a "safe and secure" city for workers and families, citing the need to focus on the "needs of families" first and foremost.
Singh has multiple siblings that he gave free housing too at their request, though refused comments regarding that decision. In June 1993, Singh signed a contract to be the mayor of South City until 2003. By March 2001, he announced he will depart the South City Government by the end of 2001 due to him being dignosed with Stage IV terminal liver cancer.
In March 2003, Singh's daughter, Jessica Singh, announced that Singh had confirmed Singh peacefully passed away in the early morning on March 10, 2003. Following his passing, South City residents began honoring him by lighting multiple candles throughout the city for one week following his death.
