Does anyone notice that many of the PAP's new election candidates come up with sob stories about how they came from poor families when they were growing up? When they claim that they lived in a forested area at the foot of a hill in an area infested by mosquitos while most of their classmates lived in high rise apartments served by a modern railway system, they probably meant that they lived in Bukit Timah Hill while their classmates stayed in HDB flats!

SINGAPORE – Singapore’s economy could more than double by 2040, with the Singapore dollar potentially trading 1-for-1 against the US dollar and the Straits Times Index (STI) climbing to 10,000 points over the 15-year period, the Republic’s largest bank said in an Oct 22 report.

The DBS Singapore 2040 report, which outlines the bank’s projections for the economy, forecast that Singapore’s gross domestic product could reach between US$1.2 trillion (S$1.56 trillion) and US$1.4 trillion by 2040 from US$547 billion in 2024, driven by capital accumulation, human capital development and productivity gains.

It said the Republic’s growth has been underpinned by institutional strength and rising educational quality, which have helped sustain the country’s competitiveness over the past few decades.

[SINGAPORE] The Straits Times Index (STI) could rise to nearly 10,000 by 2040 if historical return patterns hold, according to DBS’ Singapore 2040 report.

The Singapore dollar could also reach parity with the US dollar by 2040, amid policy and safe-haven appeal, said the report released on Wednesday (Oct 22).

Then why still sell BTO flats at sky high price, high COE, cause high cost of living.
I still believe that they were never being poor before, as I know many people don't behave like them when they were poor before.
