6.9 million can livable in a 700 SQ KM ?

Singapore can take 10 m people....no problem

sinkies, for goodness sake please prepare to leave for greener pastures

With 40 storey buildings allowed from Paya Lebar to Sengkang after PLAB is cleared, for sure we can take at least 8mil population. High speed rail (HSR) from JB will also allow more foreign labour to be brought in without living in Sinkieland.

Have u made any plans?

Nice. They also allow over 50s to apply for long term pass. Will consider in future..

It's not 6.9 million in 700 sq km.

It's more like 6.7 million in 500 sq km and the other 200K in 200 sq km. (You can come out with your own wild and baseless figures, but the basic concept does not change.)

The way to solve this perplexing problem is to try and find ways to integrate those 200K back into the 700 sq km.

must implement the compulsory home stay program where every new citizen must integrate into our society by staying with the ministars for 6 months first

You may be interested in ASEAN Free Trade Zone that is supposed to come into effect in 2015.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASEAN_Free_Trade_Area

The part that is of interest to me is that Sporeans will be able to move & stay in ASEAN without all the red tape. May not have to apply for a retirement VISA or have any limitations on how long one can stay in places like Thailand

if only this can be complemented by squeezing the elites and their family members into public transports or long queues permanently ........
you'll soon find that the 6.9 million will drop to 6.7, then to 6.5 ...........................

of course, another way is to vote those with no empathy out, and early on in their "careers", so that they have no choice but to integrate and cannot enjoy the sheltered life of an elite.........................

The PAP govt reminds me of a person so greedy for money, he would sell his organs on the black market.

Penny wise, pound foolish.

Overpopulation not only strains infrastructure, it is a ticking time bomb especially with a massive influx of foreigners.

It'll be like New York with bloodshed between Chinese triads, Indian triads, Burmese triads and Pinoy triads.

Sinkies will just be convenient collateral damage.

Quite true. The elite and billionaires will occupy 200 sq km of land with lush scenery and massive gardens and man-made waterfalls not unlike Gardens By The Bay.

The way to solve this perplexing problem is to try and find ways to integrate those 200K back into the 700 sq km.

Do you think the elite and billionaires will want to integrate? It's good they continue to live in the vast 200 sq km. Only then will 60% of Sinkies wake up to the truth.

Your interpretation of AEC and the above benefit to Sinkies is wrong.

AEC does not give automatic right of abode to Asean citizens in countries other than their own.

If your interpretation of AEC framework were correct, Sinkieland would become the most preferred destination for Malaysians, Pinoys, Vietnamese, Burmese, etc.....(or Ah Tiongs and Ah Nehs who pay for citizenship in Laos, Burma, Cambodia and Vietnam)

So how will AEC benefit Sinkieland?

1. A vast pool of cheap foreign talent (doctors, nurses, teachers, taxi drivers, technicians, engineers, retail executives, bank executives, etc..) of the other Asean countries will make a beeline here.

2. Sinkie GLCs will be able to set up shop without fuss in other Asean countries (this is the main benefit to Pinky and his LEEgime.) Sinkie SMEs may not have the economic clout or the willigness to move their operations to other Asean countries.

Note: If AEC becomes a reality, expect more Sinkie PMETs to be replaced by cheap foreign talent from the other Asean countries. In job recruitment ads, recruiters will not be allowed to employ phrases such as "This position is open to Sinkies and PRs only".

Sinkies should expect more Ah Tiongs and Ah Nehs to live and work in Sinkieland. Ah Tiongs and Ah Nehs have been paying for citizenship in Laos, Vietnam, Burma, etc..The current rate is about 2,000 USD for a Laotian citizenship.

710 sq. km if you include islands around the main island. 704 sq. km if you consider only the main island. 5% is set aside for nature reserves and another 250 acres are left for farming or agri-business. Minus roads, highways, parking, sidewalks, pedestrian walkways, parks, peripheries and playgrounds, the effective land space for habitat is estimated at below 609 sq. km. high density housing with one living on top of another allows 69 activities to take off for 6.9 million within 609 sq. km of space. the planners have 6 and 9 in their minds always.

Well many of the offshore islands arent really used except a quartet for SAF bombing practice

let's see the pte estate areas, GCB, ministars homes included etc?

those small islands for target practice are perfect habitats for the losers and bums of sinkieland. killing 2 birds with 1 stone, so to speak, and no pun intended. :p

The punishment for PAP ministers is to put them on one of the islands that is used for RSAF bombing practice. If they survive after 10 years, they can be free.
