@Invictus maneo PaxAmericana I think I read that they use 40% of land for green space. And what do you mean with the lost of individuality? East - Southease Asian culture is revolved around family. Duty to the family before individuality as far as I know. I think asians already found a balance between individuality and everything else.

Singapore was essentially a benevolent dictatorship under Lee Kuan Yew for decades after independence. This was a non-trivial contributor to sustainable long-term planning and development in the city-state. The contrast is stark compared to Hong Kong's plutocratic rule by wealthy developers and mandarins from London and now Beijing.

I'm sure there are some lazy individuals who wouldn't make it. (It's the same everywhere.)

As a Singaporean, I would recommend Singapore as a great place to visit and if possible to stay for a few months, soak in the innovative vibe and take in as many ideas as you can. But like Japan, be forewarned the pace is intense. As days turn into months and months turn into years, it will wear you out. There is always someone better after your job, some other company trying to destroy yours. If you get a good business running, it is tempting to run it 7 days a week. The money can be good. Taxes are low. The time will come when you will yearn for less crowds and more wide open spaces and your own space, and this city living will become a pleasant curse. Pleasant because it is safe and clean and how long you want to tolerate it before it drives you crazy.

@@Multi407D a revolution to overthrow the PAP and establish a leftist government is pretty much the last thing people want. I don’t share the assumption that a better, more equal society is one that mimics what the “Leftists” in the west propagate. Between your “there will never be a leftist government” and the other commenter shooting for the opposite wrt “socialist decay”, why do yall assume that a socialist revolution is what everyone has in mind when they mention ensuring that people in society are well taken care of?

@@Multi407D not rlly look at Canada, it’s a far left shithole and it’s an old demography filled with Middle Aged immigrants and overpriced realty just like Singapore. But if you got your far left youth revolution in Singapore don’t worry you’d all starve to death and run out of electricity within 3 years. Whatever good things you have going for you right now would surely dissipate and as a resourceless island in Asia Im sure you’d starve to death as China hijacks all good shipments that come into Singapore to feed their dying empire. No food, no fuel since no trade for Singapore means no election or food in a few months/ years. So just imagine you’re all living that North Korean lifestyle if you’d like to imagine how your leftist revolution would go. Hope this puts your dreams into reality for ya ❤️

Singapore is a testament to human ingenuity and a showcase of a truly progressive, forward thinking society, including the government taking care of its people. Not by usual heavy taxing and red tape either, but by providing opportunities, supporting science and encouraging innovation. Amazing place!

[@teerificbitch]

Most of what Singapore does as a society/government is not innovated in Singapore, but LEARNT from other nations. They then bring it back to the country, debate on how best to use this in a way that works best in our society, and implement it. This is something that Singapore's leaders have said time and again. IMO the most important thing is not innovation, but implementation. Hope you get a chance to visit Singapore someday!

[@beckfleur6875]

@Dude Trust Me I think we shouldn’t confuse innovation with invention. Most new technologies today were a result of innovation from past inventions. So I do think Singapore is constantly looking for ways to innovate. Let’s continue to learn from each other, innovate and progress. 💪🏻💪🏻

[@forcexjr1566]

We don't really have a solution to everything. But we are learning, growing and constantly thinking about ways to keep up with the times and stay relevant. This is why we treasure our relations with countries all over the world. Without their help and faith in us, we will not have the capability to go this far.

is it worth spending two weeks in singapore cause i plan to do there my hooeymoon with my wife

[@spanztumblr]

@@FeeDBacKMKII As a Singaporean, I'd say a week would suffice. It's very small here, so travelling around doesn't take up much time, hence you can actually do a lot in a day. But ultimately, it really depends on what you're planning to do. If your spending budget is quite high, I'd say 2 weeks would be great to experience a lot of things & you can really take your time to enjoy the moments. The number 1 thing to do here is to actually eat, eat & eat. I can confidently say that we have the best food anywhere, & there're PLENTY of varieties. Feel free to hit me up for any questions with more detailed answers.

Also to note: Elon Musk tried to make a TESLA partnership with Singapore. However Singapore declined that partnership. Elon assumed that Singapore was "opposing alternative vehicles" as our income would rely on fossil fuels. However, we hit back hard with the data that individual electric vehicles is less of a movement to protect the environment and instead a way to capitalise on the fact that it is a "Lifestyle" and that it would be more effective to have a Mass-Public Transport system that could reduce the number of vehicles, and there could also eventually be alternatively powered public transport as well.

[@ritwikreddy5670]

Electric cars make more sense in countries like America with very little public transportation. Public transport > electric cars > petrol or diesel cars

[@channelhoward]

@@ritwikreddy5670 Yes, in general this is true. It is also important to note that creating electric cars is incredibly energy intensive, and if a family is buying an electric car to replace a petrol car that they already own, this is not really accomplishing much. But for first-time automobile buyers who do not have the option of public transportation, then purchasing an electric car is definitely better than a petrol one.

[@user-bh2rk3mb3c]

because Singapore doesnt want their people want to be overcrowded with cars so they just want their people use public transportation,but still i want Tesla want to be in southeast asia region

[@aru8972]

also because ownership of 'normal' cars is already expensive. What about electric cars?

[@ritwikreddy5670]

@@channelhoward There is always market for second hand cars. If you replace your petrol car with an electric car, someone somewhere who was willing to buy a brand new petrol car would instead buy your old car. That means one less petrol car on roads.
