Singapore Expats

I've been reading all these posts lately about the imperfectness of Singapore, and just for fun want to ask everyone here... if there was ONE thing you could change about Singapore, bearing in mind that this may be mere wishful thinking... what would it be?

For me, I would change the weather. I've long thought that if Singapore were 5-10 degrees cooler and much less humid, it would be near perfect for me.

For Singaporeans to be more considerate and thoughtful

- it really STARTS at HOME!! Parents need to teach kids consideration.. and explain why when you tell them do this or dont do this.
Better not get me started- so i m staying with the request and giving ONE thing I'd like to change..

Send these 20,000 or so really bad and dangerous drivers to proper driving courses, instead of giving them a yellow (or blue) car with a red light on top, just to make sure other road users are warned...

(HEY IT'S A JOKE... before someone tells me I should stop making fun of taxi drivers).

----------Dual Citizenship----------

QUEUES!! I hate them!

Equal Opportunity for All Singaporeans regardless of race and religion.

I did not put language because lots of minorities speak Mandarin these days and I would also like to see the section where it says race on forms made obsolete except for the Identity Card where it makes sense for statistical data but no where else.

The weather!

The size . . . I'd like to live in a good-sized house again.

Can I make it 2?

1. The weather! Let's reduce by 10 degrees..
2. No ERP, just the good old CBD system.

The size!! Way too many people on a much too small island. If crowds could be eliminated....

That easy, send all of the FT, FWD, etc. home. You would reduce the population by 25% but within two weeks you would not be able to get into your homes because of the trash and the elevators would not be useable and would need boots to avoid the urine.

Have you seen the projections made by the government? I heard they target 8 million people by 2015? Is that correct??

'German autobahn' unlimited speed on all Singapore expressways (and then prohibit cabs from driving on the expressways). 8)

Sadly you'd be in the sea when changing from 2nd to 3rd gear in a good German car.
