Currently I am working in Singapore at a nursing home. Originally from Sri Lanka. I feel shamed of my own country when I see how far this little country is thinking in to the future for the generations to come. How creative they are in forming new opportunities and whatsoever that the people would look for. And the discipline within the nation is beyond expectancy even though there are some bitter incidents in time to time. But, overall, the whole country is very positive thinking and well mannered. Those people back in Sri Lanka have lot more to learn from this small country. I am really proud how Singapore thinks for their own people and their future.

As a Singaporean, I don't think Sri Lankans have anything to be ashamed about. We were fortunate to grow up in a country that gave us opportunities. We were lucky that the smartest people in the land were inspired to go into government in the post-colonial era -- the smartest people would not go into politics today. My grandparents were simple villagers who were lifted out of kampungs and poverty. They worked hard, even if it was the sort of labour most city people wouldn't consider important work. In short, every family who lived in Singapore during the last few decades got lucky. Sri Lankans have so many difficulties to contend with today, and it is by no fault of the ordinary people. Someone who hustles hard to provide for their family cannot be considered ill-disciplined in the first place.

Doing soil engineering works for the TBM to excavate through Jurong Formation rock mainly build from sedimentary rock that covers south-west portion of the Singapore island. Strengthening the soil or the foundation along the TBM route of excavation by grouting method such as rock fissure grouting by filling the void inside the rock with cement pumped with high pressure.

Not to say basic infrastructure is lacking in most part of their countries. But it’s true they have more potential than Singapore in terms of land development. For that Singapore has efficient urban planning to mitigate yet making it most comfortable and safe to live in. And the countries you speak of, potential, will remain as potential until the crippling issues are resolved.

Several discrepancies about TBM's. The TBM would move an elephant hahaha. A TBM would move a herd of elephants and several herds of cows + the farmers. The TBM costs a $1,000,000 hahaha. Maybe a very old and used TBM. A 6m mixshield TBM, as featured here, would cost at least $10,000,000 approximately. Depending on the size (diameter) and type of TBM they can cost much more. The 6m mixshield TBM featured in the video would advance at 3m an hour hahaha. This is not possible with this size and type of TBM. It leads you to believe that a 900m tunnel would be excavated in 300 hours or 12½ days. The truth is a 900m tunnel would take about 6 - 8 months depending on geology/breakdowns/dependability of supply of usables. I have work on tunnels in Singapore on 3 occasions.

You don't want to be there , really. You can't bring in chewing gums even. It's a FINE city. You'll get fined if you spit in public. You'll be bored to death. Life in Singapore is like a colony of ants in an anthill surrounded by a body of water. Life is just about work, and almost no play. Yes everything is there, shopping centres and everything, but you need to hold a good job in order to earn good money, an above average income, which equate to a 'happy' life. If not you'll be bunking in an ordinary pigeon style pigeon hole style flat dwellings which endlessly dotted the hinterlands of the island. Housing and car ownership are very dear, yes use the crowded public transport, if you can stand the BO of strangers. No thanks mate. Yes, never get sick in Singapore. Non citizens are barred from getting treated in public hospitals.

Those shafts are going to make great surge tanks for storm drainage as well. These infrastructure works are going to be key tasks to ensure Singapore can endure thru even more centuries. Like the New York City water tunnel, this is an equally impotant project, just on the other side of the coin......

It is very difficult for the Philippine reach this kind massive project due to corruption in the government. From the department who is known for its worst corrupt officials and local government officials hungry for money. Another are lack of advance technical engineering knowledge for our engineers.

If Singapore's temperature can be lowered by 3 deg Celsius, it would be a dream place to live in. Way too hot in Singapore. Giant geosynchronous umbrellas in space to shield the sun ....that possible? The structure only needs to be a fabric. Hence it must be possible cos it is light weight and Elon can rocket them up for Singapore.
