    i think the difference is that SG is very very hot...try walking whole day in London versus just 2 hours in SG, very tiring you know...and beside perspire liao see bei chow...

    i play 36 holes golf in Kuming before.. weather very cool and nice.. after the games, still so fresh and at night still can go party.. in SG, can be quite tiring and moreover I consider my fitness level above average.

This is a very interesting shift and one needs to think of the logic behind, particularly with the low interest rate, high inflation and huge GLS supply.

    Next, is the mega MRT plan. Such mega plan is to support a big population, and a huge population is needed to support the running of such mega MRT network.

    So, if I read this two together, the last piece of the puzzle is the population policy. PM Lee and DPM Teo have both hinted on the needs of more heads in Singapore. We need growth, We cannot be like Japan, super low birth rate, no growth, and ageing nation. It is asking for deep trouble in future.

    So, my take is population policy will be the next one, and follow by the master plan 2013.

    This round, the intake rate, I guesstimate, will be in the region of 100,000 to 120,000 per year. And the focus is to convert them into new citizen and have their first property. Definitely, Govt is now much more choosey.
    HK is targetting 10m from existing of 7m. If we don't take the good ones now, we will left with nothing.
    in a nutshell and from the view of the common man in the street such an analysis can only mean one thing with regards to singapores future....

    HUAT...Ahhhhhh

    dont worry we are safe...for next many many years...dont scared of iskandar...dont scared of HK...dont scared of china...SINGAPORE BOLEH
    In the final analysis.....its NOT whether you have a diploma,degree,masters OR PHD....its whether you have a HDB/PC/EC or LANDED...

    Ahhahaha


    Reminds me of an incident in the office.


    One day it was raining really heavy. And it was really cool, that afternoon.

    So I asked my colleagues, ' you know, what's the best thing to do now? '


    He said, ' eat steam boat'


    The whole room burst into laughter

    I wouldn't mind if they have an efficient system like HK and not as crowded as current situation ... It's been more than a decade since I last took mrt ... I can't imagine to find myself in the same crowd I see in some of the pictures on the web ... It's already daunting to shop on weekends ... The whole island is just at boiling point waiting for some triggers ... High density certainly brings more conflict in day to day ... Open space and holidays are ever getting more important, and its worth every cent to pay for that serenity in this overcrowded society

    The subway in NYC is going to celebrate their 100th birthday.

    U see the complexity of their schedule, peak vs non-peak, one track runnings some many lines....and still in excellent working condition...

    Of course, one thing I don't like, a lot of foot work in climbing...

    MIW please revise the plot ratios upwards.
