What will Spore be like in 20 yrs time? Discuss

enterprise2 · Mar 1, 2015

Those 30 yr old youngsters will be hitting 50s. Those retiring now will be on their last lap of life. Pop will prob be 10m+, there's no more open space in Spore. A plate of chicken rice will cost $10/- plate, a cup of kopi will prob be $5/- per cup. Only the 'rich and famous' can drive, the rest got to take public transport. The pop mix would prob be 50% Chinese, 30% Indians with Malays and Eurasians and others the balance 20%. Most of the Chinese and Indians are new arrivals living in the country for less than 20 years. The older Singaporeans are in the minority now and their nos r shrinking. Most of them r still living off their CPF which unfortunately has not been able to keep pace with the cost of living in this expensive city. In fact with the majority of the pop made up of 'new citizens' now, there has been calls to stop social subsidies to this group. Many of them r asking why they should help or subsidize them just because they were born here!

This is the future as I see it. Anyone disagree?

The one thing I can guarantee is that it will be a shithole.

Are you sure? Pinky will be in his early 80s and even if he has kicked the bucket by then, his wife Ho Jinx could succeed him as PM and take charge of the country, no?

in any balanced ecosystem,whenever a invasive species or far superior predator is introduced into the environment,the indigenious or native species often lose their ability to forage for food to support themselves resulting in a decline in the population.many attempts to integrate or cohabitat the species may result in lacklustre results.the end result is sinkies become a endangered protected species like the native americans or australian aboriginals which although are protected by law against discrimination and bias but unfortunately are plagued by many stereotypes and prejudice of the majority of society.

154th or gahment will 'romancise' this process calling it a 'melting pot' or enriching the gene pool ...etc but in essence it's really the 'invasion' of younger FTs into our society which will lead to them replacing the local populace in leadership and other dominant sectors of society. Singapore may benefit but the local populance may be poorer for it.

Pop will prob be 10m+...

Based on the current growth rate of about 100k per year since 1990:

STATISTICS SINGAPORE - Monthly Digest of Statistics, Jan 2015
http://www.singstat.gov.sg/docs/def..._papers/reference/monthly_digest/mdsjan15.pdf
(page 14 of the pdf file)

it's possible for Singapore's total population to reach seven million by 2030 or 7.5 million by 2035, mostly because of new immigrants.

So in order for your prediction of 10 million people in 2035 to come true, the growth rate from this year onwards must double to about 200k per year for the next 20 years.

Yes, and it will happen much sooner than later, based on:

Number of older cars grows sharply | TODAYonline
http://www.todayonline.com/print/820801
(By Joy Fang; Published: 4:03 AM, September 26, 2014)

SINGAPORE — Despite Certificate of Entitlement (COE) premiums softening, the profile of cars here has aged dramatically over the first nine months of the year, as the total car population shrank marginally.

Based on latest figures from the Land Transport Authority (LTA), as at Aug 31, there are a total of 619,139 cars on the road. Of these, 165,527 cars are between eight and 10 years old — making up 26.7 per cent of the total car population.

In contrast, cars in this age range made up just 18.7 per cent of the total car population of 621,480 as at Jan 31.

The car population here has been getting older over the past decade or so. For example, in 2007, four in five cars on the road were less than four years old. Currently, the proportion has fallen to less than one in five.

The trend has been attributed to the soaring COE premiums, which have gone up significantly compared with the early 2000s. As a result, most motorists have been holding on to their cars.

"619,139 cars on the road" as of 31 August 2014 and "in 2007, four in five cars on the road were less than four years old. Currently, the proportion has fallen to less than one in five" means that only about 120,000 NEW cars were added between mid-2010 and mid-2014, which is an average of about 30,000 per year. If this trend continues until 2020 (only 6 years later starting from last year), all those cars "on the road" before 2010 would be "off" the road in 2020 and there would be about 300,000 (about HALF the number now) cars "on the road" in 2020.

Actually, there's no need because the Malaysian government is a lackey of the governments of at least Saudi Arabia, the USA and the UK. And the Malaysian government, whether it's controlled by UMNO or any other party, is obliged by at least the above three governments to GIVE the Singapore government WHATEVER Singapore NEEDS in return for PAPER MONEY.

Singapore is one of the top ten (or even top five):

and

in the world and, therefore, one of the most important cities in the:

And it should be obvious that it's the powerful cities that control large countries or regions of countries, via the less powerful cities.

Meanwhile, at first glance, I see fuzzy bear..want to see the details, pay up.
