View Full Version : A plan to house 2m more people
Those living around the southern coast area might be in for a big surprise when URA release the Masterplan 2013.
Even as the debate continues over the 6.9 million figure in the population White Paper, veteran architect Tay Kheng Soon said at an industry lecture last night that Singapore can accommodate a population increase of up to two million.
All two million would be housed on a 2,187ha swathe of land along the southern coastline, stretching from Pandan Reservoir in the west to the East Coast Park beach.
Land where the Keppel and Marina Bay golf courses are currently sited would make way for housing, as would the port area once container port functions are consolidated in Tuas in the long term.
Space around the Gardens by the Bay would cater to the super-rich, with homes built on the sea to entice those keen on waterfront living. Some parts of the south would also be for schools, offices and factories.
And while this might mean Singapore loses its biggest beach, he said all other areas, including green and heritage spaces, need not be "disturbed".
Mr Tay's "southern intensification" proposal comes two weeks after an intense parliamentary debate over the population White Paper that projects Singapore's population rising by 1.6 million by 2030.
"What I hear is a lot of grumbling (about the White Paper), so let us as a profession contribute," said the former president of the Singapore Institute of Architects who is known for his outspoken and at times radical views.
The 73-year-old said his ideas came about before the policy document was unveiled, and were several years in the making. "I've been wanting to know the density limit for Singapore."
Unlike the Government Land Use Plan which also proposes reclaiming more land and consolidating military activities onto Tekong Island, his proposal focuses on the single large strip of land, building more densely on it.
Based on an assumption of 50 sq m of floor area per person that is comparable to a region in Virginia on the East Coast of the United States, a gross plot ratio of 4.5 can accommodate 1.968 million, he said. If this ratio is lowered to 4, then about 1.75 million people can be housed in the south.
Gross plot ratio is a measure of the density of building units in a given space. He said that the highest ratio here currently is 3.24, in Punggol.
Meanwhile, he proposed restructuring estates in other parts of Singapore, by having a central corridor in each. Schools, businesses and other amenities would be located along it, to build social cohesion and bonding.
The lecture drew a crowd of about 100 guests, including vice-president of the Economic Society of Singapore Yeoh Lam Keong.
Despite the seemingly controversial nature of the southern intensification plan, no one raised questions about it during a question-and-answer session after the lecture, at the Singapore Institute of Architects' premises in Tanjong Pagar.
Mr Yeoh, who has been following the population White Paper debate, told The Straits Times later: "Physically you might be able to squeeze in another two million... but it doesn't fully measure or avoid the negative impact on social well-being from increase in income and wealth inequality and overcrowding in common facilities."
Responding, Mr Tay said: "That's why I proposed not intensifying land use in other parts of Singapore, so that we can build social cohesion there. It will be like New York in the south of the country, and Bali in the north."
so? you're taking this as gospel truth? :doh::doh:

all i'm saying it's sheer stupidity to take it as gospel truth and build arguments on something that isn't even concrete - like what you're doing.
let me apply what you preach,
1. govt is studying to build underground
2. govt won't reclaim land as it is cheaper to build underground
3. by doubling land use on the same amount of land, Singapore can accommodate 10mil people without batting an eyelid.
4. coastline stays as it is
so moron, my postulation holds as much water as your claims since we are all building a scenario based on mere assumptions.
and i've been telling you to take comfort that reminding yourself daily of your own stupidity, doesn't make you smarter.
So are taking this as gospel truth?
Because I clearly didnt said that in my first post.
You made that up and you try to make a big fuss out of it.
Like I said before, dont waste my time replying to my post just read my signature.

i am asking if you are taking lecture debates and non-concrete plans as gospel truth.
1. if you aren't, then you're effectively slapping yourself since you had been building your arguments on such.
2. if you are, then you had just shifted your stance out of convenience.
3. like i said, reminding yourself that you are stupid won't make your smarter.

The Jurong PC performed SUPERBLY well !
By being able to rip off buyers to pay $1,7xx psf when the surrounding is only doing $1,1xx-$1,2xx. Developer performed well. Buyers ? eerrmmm ... they did well by queuing for long hours to empty their bank accounts.
Now that other places like Bishan is launching at $1,3xx-$1,4xx psf, the moment of realization is not too far away.
Anyway, I am waiting for someone to tell me Jurong is a more superior location than Bishan.

Stop avoiding my question.
You said in your own word that gospel is the truth.
Please back up what you said.

I could fully understand your feeling. obviously for something living in the east will always think the west is lousy, that why you are so busy talking down west region since your sign up last month.
And of course the idea of East Coast land reclamation is not going to go down well with people living around East Coast, because in maybe 20 years time, your east coast will become like Eunos.
You seems to be very passionate about property may I know where you have been before your found this forum last month?

WAHAHAHA......how i love it when morons dig a hole, jump in and bury themselves with sand.
since the 1800s, non-believers had been taking the Bible to court in the USA to disprove and not one case is successful. go better that
but this is not a debate of theological matters, it's about you treating fiction as concrete facts

Calling me names does not equal to answering my question.
So in your own word are you saying Gospel is the truth, do you have prove that its the TRUTH?
So are you saying everyone in USA everyone speak the truth because of BIBLE in Court?
Are you also saying that Bible and Gospel is the only truth in the world? What about Quran?

eh, i've already answered your first question. :banghead::banghead:
your second question is totally irrelevant. the gospel, being the truth, does not equate to a person being truthful. it's like saying Colonel Sanders is a chicken because he invented KFC. DUH
thirdly, i've already told you this is not a debate on theological matters but your nonsensical argument.

Poor Ringo!
He merely started this thread to inform us of the article and you guys attack him right, left and centre.
Ringo is merely sharing with us what he has read.
I know Ringo has always promoted Jurong- but what's wrong with that?
He has also highlighted to us of the possibility that land might be reclaimed on the southern and eastern coastal regions.
What 's wrong with that too?
It doesn't mean that it will happen.
I salute Ringo for his passion in sharing with us in what he believes.
But that doesn't mean I will believe everything he says.
But there is no need to flare up at him.

thanks for slapping yourself - why ask the question since it's irrelevant?
secondly, you are way of out of your league on gospel history and so, i'll advise you to stay out of such discussion. until show some semblance of coherence, i won't bother throwing pearls to swine.
and please, don't digress from the topic of you subsituting fiction as facts

Its totally relevant because it your first post you mentioned gospel truth. So without knowing what or if Gospel it true or not, how am I suppose to response to your comment.
So you said gospel is true, can you prove that to me.

you used the key phrase "it doesn't mean that it will happen", that all of us, except the moron, are harping on. i don't normally cut an argument down to size - we can agree to disagree. but when one puts forth one's views while belittling others', he better be prepared for challenges in his argument
Obviously the biggest moron in this thread is the one who doesnt understand the meaning when I said MIGHT.

let me try to put this in simple terms.
truth and falsehood are dichotomous. hypothesis and null-hypothesis are dichotomous. 1 and 0 are dichotomous states in a binary code.
hence, if one state isn't true, the other must be. to go deeper, it involves apologetics, theological archeology, biblical history, etc etc.
So why is your believe is more true than others and why must I believe what you believe is true?
:doh::doh:i have only stated i believe that the gospel in truth. i never put down anyone else's beliefs and i've never suggested that you must follow my beliefs.
and i rest my case - zero coherence and poor logic
I could fully understand your feeling. obviously for something living in the east will always think the west is lousy, that why you are so busy talking down west region since your sign up last month.

Cool it la!
Why you keep wanting to know where people were last month, what they buy, what they sell, what food they eat, today got sh*t or not ?
Nobody says the West is lousy, why you say such things.
Singapore is one of the best country to live and work in!
We are saying that the Gospel truth is :
Jurong MM sold for $1,6xx-$17xx
Bishan MM selling for $1,4xx-$1,6xx
Bishan is a more superior location compared to Jurong.
Jurong is a good location.
Which parts of these Gospel truth you dont believe in ?

Ok so the short answer is nobody has proven it to be true in a court of law.
Extending the dichotomous state, gospel is truth, there is only 1 Word. All other religion must be false.

Actually from what I read, you are actually saying gospel MIGHT not be true because your are using gospel truth on something that I said MIGHT happen.
You know the meaning of MIGHT dont you?
So are you saying that despite your believe in the gospel, you believe that gospel MIGHT not be true?

You could go ahead to insult me if you wish, dont need to hold back. I presume that must be part of your gospel teaching?
Anyone who read the first 2 posts of this thread will agree that according to you gospel might not be true.
So am I right that you believe in gospel even thought it might not be 100% true.
The Gospel truth is :
Jurong MM sold for $1,6xx-$17xx
Bishan MM selling for $1,4xx-$1,6xx
Bishan is a more superior location compared to Jurong.
Jurong is a good location.
Which parts of these Gospel truth you dont believe in ?
DKSG
The truth!~
The truth!~
Some say the gospel is true, while other say it might be true, so I guess, truth is pretty subjective and it depends on how much individual knows about the facts behind those "truth".
Concerning what you said, I am sure to you its truth, but for those who knows about facts, they will tell you to stop farting hot air and go have a good shit.
FACTS : Gateway MM starts at 14xxpsf, so please dont over state it by $200psf
FACTS : Gateway MM starts at 14xxpsf, so please dont over state it by $200psf
We will post the fact what is the lowest psf for studio for SV when it is launched.
If you wish to, you can post what is the highest, lowest and average psf for the Jurong MM. Then we can compare factually.

To be honest, I dont really enjoy watching you degrading yourself like that.
I know its painful that you keep getting facts wrong and your prediction does come true. In fact it is so bad that you have to devalue the price of THE SAIL by $200psf (from $2000 to $1800psf, or 10%) in 2 months?
Back in July 2013, (just 2 months back) this was what you wrote..Now you are predicting that price of PC in Bishan to come down and will be cheaper than J Gateway? I would thought the reverse will happen because if Jurong sell at >$14xxpsf, Bishan should sell $>15xxpsf.
Plus I am not even sure why do you want to compare Bishan to J Gateway because we all know that JLD is growth area, while Bishan is pretty much a residential enclave build above graveyard.
