From official statistics, there are only 2.3 million citizens here and 750,000 of them are already senior citizens representing over 32.6% of the total.
In 20 to 30 years' time, if nothing constructive is done, over 50% of the citizenry will be senior citizens.
These figures are due primarily to the extreme low birth rate and the increase in the number of singles and divorcees here.
It is therefore a neccesity to encourage educated foreigners to take up citizenship here.
If nothing is done, this "tiny" red dot will become a "GIANT" old age home.
