><))o> Population Control?
#Contrary to the common belief that Singapore's population is declining as well as heading towards aging population, i think Singapore's population must have
INCREASED! Why do i say so? Here's a few phenomenons to back my stand :
1. Orchard road has become more crowded than ever! Try walking through the basement of Wisma Atria to Ngee Ann City and you'll understand what i mean!
2. Cars on the road have increased if not why the heck are the authorities installing ERP and still planning to install more?
3. The MRT must be the most frustrating case of all! If you think properly, do you realise that whenever you are taking the train, it always seemed to be full and sometimes you stand all the way (poor pathetic legs!) to your destination? The situation is especially bad during school hours, lunchtime hours, after work hours and not to mention weekends and public holidays. Often, i feel like a
tomato-preserved sadine in a "can of MRT". And what's with the crap of jacking up public transportation fares? I'm a non-working adult paying adult fare (so it seems as viewed by the transport authorities) when i am only a pathetic 19 year-old student-to-be-again! It's so bloody unfair especially when those people are making millions and still complain of financial problem when ask to put in more safety measures (i did my PW on SMRT! Muha!)! Doesn't really make sense huh? If that's the case, i would really love to see where does all the money SMRT makes goes into. Maybe they should reveal their budget planning or something......
4. Donations to charity like NKF have increase steadfastly or it could be that people are more kind-hearted and generous...but that's unlikely because the number of flag days have increased dramatically also! Maybe its common knowledge that with a bigger population now (that's what i am assuming now you see), there is always more money to go around when infact, those poeple who do flag days always targets MRT stations, bus stations which comes down to public transporters donating all the money...when we are already having a hard time dealing with increase fares! Maybe they should stand outside carparks or something so that money donation is fairly distributed among the larger population now.
