In Singapore, the census is conducted once a decade; this one marks the sixth since Singapore achieved independence.

Mr Lee says that the infographics included in the census illustrate Singapore’s progress as of recent. In the last decade, Singapore experienced the slowest growth in its population. An increasing number of Singaporeans are staying single while those who are married are having fewer children.

Ethnic distribution has remained stable. However, Singapore is also experiencing an ageing population and more seniors are living by themselves now.

Throughout the years, Singapore has become better educated and English is spoken more often at home. In addition, the proportion of non-religious people has been growing. The median household income has increased while homeownership continues to be high.

Mr Lee urges Singaporeans to be aware of the trends in our society so that their policies and mindsets will be relevant to the changing times, especially while the pandemic still looms over the world.

At the end of his post, Mr Lee expressed his gratitude to everyone who was involved in the production of the census.

In the comments section, netizens commented that they hoped the census findings would be useful in helping Singapore to progress and develop.

Censuses of populations are conducted regularly globally. They determine the number of inhabitants in a country and also illustrate the statistical profile of the population and households while providing data for demographic, economic, and social statistics.

The Singapore Census of Population 2020 was released in June 2021. Statistical Release 1 examines the demographic characteristics, education, language and religion of Singapore’s population. Meanwhile, Statistical Release 2 looks into households, geographic distribution, transport and difficulty in basic activities in Singapore.

Singapore’s Education Minister Chan Chun Sing also mentioned the Census 2020 findings in his Facebook post and lauded Singapore’s improved education profile.

Plenty of single mothers, and their average age is getting younger. Not sure if they are included in the census. Maybe better to treat them as invisible and carry on with your merry business. :wink:

Population growth slowed, higher proportion of singles in Singapore: census​


SINGAPORE — Between 2010 and 2020, Singapore's total population grew by 1.1 per cent a year, the lowest decade of growth since the country's independence.

This data was among the key trends noted by the Department of Statistics (DOS) in its first of two statistical publications based on its Census 2020 findings released on Wednesday (16 June).

Singapore's total population stood at 5.69 million in 2020, up from 5.08 million in 2010, according to the DOS. The country's citizen population rose from 3.23 million to 3.52 million over the same period, while the permanent resident population remained stable at around 0.5 million.

Ethnic composition of the resident population was relatively unchanged with Chinese making up 74.3 per cent, Malays accounting for 13.5 per cent, and Indians comprising 9 per cent.

More singles, fewer children​

The DOS report also noted that the proportion of singles across the age groups had risen, with the greatest increase seen among those aged 25 to 34.

For those aged 25-29, the proportion of single males rose from 74.6 per cent to 81.6 per cent, while the proportion of single females increased from 54 per cent to 69 per cent. In the 30-34 age group, the proportion of single males rose from 37.1 per cent to 41.9 per cent, while the proportion of single females increased from 25.1 per cent to 32.8 per cent.

The report also noted that women had fewer children compared with a decade ago. In the category of resident women aged 40 to 49 who have ever been married, the average number of children decreased from 2.02 in 2010 to 1.76 in 2020.

Women with higher levels of education also had fewer children on average compared with those with lower educational qualifications. Among the resident women aged 40-49 who have ever been married, university graduates had an average of 1.66 children in 2020, compared with the average of 1.94 children among those with secondary qualifications.

Significant progress in women's education​

Overall, the education profile of the Singapore's resident population also improved, with 58.3 per cent of those aged 25 and older in 2020 having attained post-secondary or higher qualifications – an increase from 46.5 per cent in 2010.

Improvements in educational attainment were seen across the Chinese, Malay and Indian communities.

The DOS report noted that women have made "more significant progress" in education. For instance, among residents aged 55 and above in 2020, the proportion with post-secondary or higher qualifications was 34 per cent for men and 22.8 per cent for women – an 11.2 percentage point difference. Within the 25 to 34 age band, the proportion of women with such qualifications was 90.2 per cent, marginally higher than their male counterparts at 90 per cent.

Singapore's literacy rate also remained high at 97.1 per cent in 2020, while multi-language literacy was 90.3 per cent among literate residents aged 15 to 24.

English has become the most frequently spoken language at home for 48.3 per cent of residents aged five and above in 2020, an increase from 32.3 per cent in 2010. Among this group, over 80 per cent also spoke a vernacular language at home, said the report.

The DOS report is aimed at providing broad trends and changes relating to the demographic characteristics, marriage and fertility, education, literacy, home language and religion of Singapore's resident population – referring to citizens and permanent residents – between 2010 and 2020. The census data was collated from 150,000 households.

More findings from Census 2020 will be shared on Friday.

SINGAPORE — While Singapore continues to be religiously diverse, more residents are identifying as having no religion, said the Department of Statistics (DOS) in a report released on Wednesday (16 June).

Among Singapore citizens and permanent residents aged 15 and above in 2020, those with no religious affiliation made up 20 per cent, an increase from 17 per cent in 2010, said the DOS in the first statistical publication on its Census 2020 findings.

Taoists comprised 8.8 per cent, while Hindus made up 5 per cent, with those prescribing to other religions accounting for 0.6 per cent.

The proportion of Muslims and Christians also grew between 2010 and 2020 while the proportion of Buddhist and Taoists dipped.

Among the Chinese, 40.4 per cent identified as Buddhists, while 21.6 per cent were Christian, 11.6 per cent Taoist and 0.5 per cent Muslim. Among the Malays, 98.8 per cent identified as Muslim, while 0.1 per cent said they were Buddhists and 0.4 per cent had no religion.

Why don't he also give us the information on who voted for PAP...I am sure that information is also available to him.

More singles and less children are highlighted, but perhaps single mothers are lost in the mix. :wink:

This could be an opportunity to pair childless couples with single mothers in some kind of co-upbringing arrangement whereby the lucky kid can have 3 parents. :unsure::thumbsup::biggrin:

Even if he has it, why would he want to share this information with the opposition? It would only allow the opposition to work harder on this group of voters. :unsure::eek::biggrin:
 
The census is proof of his failures in many areas to correct the problems faced by the citizens.

Unfortunately, it was his father's failures to push him into this position. Most sinkies tend to blame him, but he himself may have preferred to have become a maths lecturer. :coffee:

Husband fucks the single mother, wife watch and record video? Sounds like a plan.

Yeah, could be a combination of both. I don't think LKY was just a yesman to his wife, but it is highly likely that she had a lot to do with it as well. :coffee:

In essence I blame the issues Sg faced now is due to that horse faced woman asshole.

LKY married up, his wife was the daughter of an elite banking family in Sinkieland. I think he knew his place in the union. :wink:
