singapore 2020


Here we are in 2006, some wild guesses that may happened in 17 year' time in 2020.

By 2020, assuming that immigration remained unchanged at 10% per annum, we will have 6 million persons, out of half will be foreigners and another 10-20% who have chosen Singapore as Permanent Residents. Some may used it as a gateway to other countries such as USA, Australia, Canada and requlished the Singapore PR status and became PR of their destination. They will formed two third of the populations.

Also, there may be 3 million Singaporeans (including PR), assuming birth rate remained at 1.2%.

Some of the wildest guess.

There would definitely be more PRs and immigrants from mainland China since Chinese Singaporeans are not making as many babies as their Malay counterparts ;p
