Thanks to land reclamation, Singapore has developed her shores considerably to house her growing population! And why is her population increasing?

Along with the advancements made in Singapore’s standard of living, our lifespan has improved too. Today, we stand to gain an extra 19 years to achieve our dreams!

About 29% of Singaporeans are older than Singapore!

Now, those of you who are 54 years old and above can officially boast that you have lived longer than Singapore herself. How cool is that!

We hope you have learnt something new about Singapore from this month’s HappyNews because the HappyDot.sg team certainly did! Keep a lookout for more interesting tidbits coming your way!
