This is why I like Yahoo News..... none of that propaganda crap
in the print media, while having none of the stupidity and vile
invective of TR Emeritus.
Yahoo News: Fury over the 6.9 million population
target for Singapore
Anyway, I have seen nothing that convinces me that we really
need 6.9 million people. Sure, economic growth is good, but if
there's one thing I've learnt about money, it is that you only
really need it up to a point. All the rest is for showing off.
Meanwhile, I have not seen any concrete plans for infrastructure
upgrade either. The proposed new MRT lines are just squiggles on a
map. I have not seen things like proposed stations, ground surveys,
and a budget.
The proposed new towns are also just that - some words in a
proposal, nothing more. I have not seen things like proposed roads
and layouts, central hubs for the new towns, and so on.
In fact, unless we colonise Pulau Ubin and Pulau Tekong and
build multiple bridge links to them, I find it very difficult to
see how we're going to accomodate all those people.
yup, i'm not convence either. had they dare to put out this toilet
paper before the 26/1, they would have seen the backlashed.
