If I recall correctly, the default version of Vim in Debian is provided
by the vim-tiny package which contains a minimal version of Vim. For a
more complete version I suggest installing the 'vim' or 'vim-full'
package.

Either of the above, more complete packages should give you syntax
highlighting.
