Concept plan in 2001 was for population of 5.5 mil by 2040 to 2050. Already reached by 2013.

Typical Papees. When they get a horrific public's response and outcry, they back down and cry "worst case scenario lah".
Why does our PM hide behind his FB and make statements to defend the White Paper? Why can't he come out and face the wrath? Is he a coward? Where are his balls?

He has the same genetic flaw like Bruce lee, born with abnormal testicles. Bruce was missing one, LHL is born with both balls missing.
I didnt know that bro! Thot it wld make sense if Bruce had an extra one, while LHL has none, and his wife has one too.

If there is only ONE item to be discussed on during the NATCON, this is it.
Everything else is a waste of time.
Die, die there should another BE soon.

It's not a need. It's a want.
We don't need people with greed to rule this country. We need people of common sense.
Right now, the PAP has shown itself to be totally devoid of common sense.
A lack of common sense will ruin and destroy us all.

Old trick.
Worst case scenario for them.
Swiss standard of living and more good years for them.
Standard simulations have worst case best case and realistic scenarios so as to define the range it could fall within and also the calculate the repercussions and gains. Fuckers here show one scenario. Uniquely Leegimepore. Not yet studied by Nobel Prizer scholars and possible beyond normal human comprehension.

Having overpaid useless scums like him in ParLeement is already worse than a worst-case scenario !

This one must ask his wife instead.
Yeap. Initially they must have thought people can accept 6.9 mil, which is better than 8 mil that some feared. Only 1.3 mil more than current 5.3 mil. They even got DBS chap to test market, and the internet did not burst into action because everyone was focus on by election. LHL miscalculated the ground sentiment again.
What is their stupid logic of worst case scenario? You mean they cannot stop the inflow of immigrants? All totally under their control. In fact the worst case is after building all the extra infrastructure, a net outflow occur instead. Then who has to pay for all the hundreds of billions of extra MRT, houses, offices?
The 6.9mil is their lowest target, 8 to 9 mil is more likely what LHL is aiming for. Annual net inflow is 150k, 17 years from now, that will be extra 2.55 mil people, in other words about 7.9 mil people by 2030.
PAP is going to quietly creep towards this target. They may decide to not announce the total population annually. Before 2011 GE, population was at 5.1mil, then LHL say sorry, will do better. After election in 2012, jumped again to 5.3 mil.
By 2020, it will be at least 6 mil.
