A weekly roundup of the most interesting Web discussions by
Singaporeans.
Too crowded here
RHONDA wonders whether
Singapore is becoming overpopulated, after noticing how the trains
and buses are always packed during peak hours.
'If you look around, our transport systems are almost bursting at
the seams.'
Elindra thinks Housing
Board flats will eventually be the size of office cubicles if the
number of people rises further.
Sbst275 agrees.
'In future, an HDB flat will consist of a small master bedroom big
enough for one bed.'
But, says Strikefreedom,
'if you think Singapore's transportation system is too packed, it's
the same in other places too'.

Miss Materialistic?
YUKO-OGURA is upset that a
girl he likes has now taken to wearing dangly earrings.
'The innocent and non-materialistic image of her is
shattered.
'Has she become attention-seeking?'
Rainee thinks otherwise.
She has a pair of dangly earrings 'but I don't consider myself
materialistic at all, and my friends can testify to that'.
Coffeeortea thinks it is
just about fashion and it is normal for girls to want to look
good.
'You should worry only when she doesn't care how she looks.'
Apollo_sg says: 'Both of
you are just growing up.
'Be prepared to accept more drastic changes.'
