Is singapore going to be overpopulated in the coming years?

[Chillout FM]

So immigration is really the only thing that's adding population.
Well, let's find the immigration figures and dot he math to see whether the population will rise or fall.

Yes, let's ...

Well with all those guys here with asian fetishes its gonna rise with +500 i think

SPG? Sexual Predator Girls? Singapore Police Gigolos? What?

A "Sarong Party Girl". Rampant in Singapore and other areas in Asia. Usually the finer specimens of the female population but plagued with an addiction for caucasian dick. Though these women are typically not prostitutes, they do lend themselves to "loving you long time" depending on size of wallet and promises of greener pastures.
Dude, last night some SPG gave me the drip

You pretty much epitomize the reasons why Dutch people scare me.

If you're Dutch, you're Dutch; your residency matters not.

By the way, I still won the argument against Malthusian theories of overpopulation until someone makes a response...

Someone, just give me one serious response. I'll post my Malthus Kritik myself if I have to.

I would argue that the situation leading up to the massacres in Rwanda and nearby countries was pretty much a Malthusian situation, it would also seem to be an element in the Palestinian/Israeli conflict. You have yet to really put forward enough of an argument beyond the usual 'the free market fairy wil fix it all' to be claiming any kind of victory.

Do you think a massacre can happen in Singapore b/c of the overpopulation?

[Globexanter]

I'm sad, no Cake option?
But no, I don't think overpopulation will come into play. If it does, they'll just build taller buildings.

[Rambhutan]

Do you think a massacre can happen in Singapore b/c of the overpopulation?

Much less likely than in Rwanda, more likely an infection like SARS or bird 'flu. I suppose given the quite authoritarian nature of Singapore some kind of civil war is always a remote possibility.

Mmmh, do you think Europeans would be the target then?

EDIT: Singapore got a strong economy and can import food, unlike Rwanda

[Daistallia 2104]

Nope. Singapore has one of the lowest feritlity rates in the world. and a moderately low population growth rate (dismissing outliers like the World Bank's claim). They're bribing women to have babies in the first place.

No, they won't become overpopulated. The market will always adjust for the perfect rate of population expansion/contraction (Malthus be damned). That is to say, large populations are necessary within an agricultural economy and are permitted to expand rapidly in an industrialized economy. However, as Singapore becomes technologically and economically developed to such a degree that birth control is widely available, large families are no longer economically productive, etc., the population will peak, growth will be reduced, and the natives may experience a population decline (see: Europe). While the rapid growth within industrialized economies may be uncomfortable, it is necessary for economic progression and is temporary. This historical trend is easily observable in nations already highly developed (see: Western Europe and the United States; Japan industrialized early as well, but I know little about Japan (?)), and it's positive. When population growth decreases, immigration will likely fulfill many of the roles in Singapore's economy abandoned by the native population (due to birth rate decline)... meaning the total increase to the standard of living of individuals in the area is positive.

Not only do you not know much about Japan, you seem to know little about Singapore as well. (Hint: Singapore is not some NIC where women have limited access to birth control and get married younge and pump out 15 kids.)

has singapore ever NOT BEEN overpopulated, at any time in the 63 years i've been alive, or for something like at least a hundred years before that, if not a lot longer?

i must be missing something here. it's eluding me whatever it is.

Nope, not missing a thing, other than forgettiung this is a typical NSG thread full of ignorant folk who think knowing nothing about the topic qualifies them as experet comentators.

The Rawanda genocide was caused as much or more by enviropnmental degredation than overpopulation.

Much less likely than in Rwanda, more likely an infection like SARS or bird 'flu. I suppose given the quite authoritarian nature of Singapore some kind of civil war is always a remote possibility.

Indeed, the possibility of overpopulation causing strife is pretty remote. It's more likely to be ethnic tensions tied to economic disparities, like much of the strife in SE Asia where the ethnic Chinese economically dominate more local populations. The PAP has kept a lid on it pretty well, but there's a lot that can go wrong with their program...

Read the kritik I posted. Underlining certain sections of the first section + bolded summaries = what you should read.

[Augarundus]

The problem with #2 is the government of Singapore runs a campaign to encourage Chinese families to have more children(with tax breaks and the like.)

HEAVEN I WANNA MOVE TO THERE!

[Daistallia 2104]

Ethnic Chinese will be the target, as per usual.

[Rambhutan]

It is possible to argue that the environmental degradation is to some extent down to population pressure creating a demand for food production and fuel leading to deforestation and erosion.
