If the population in Singapore continue to decline, even though our economy will rise and more attention and funds would be diverted to us, there would be a severe manpower shortage, and even more foreign talents would be in Singapore. And many of our generation would not want to continue old traditions in Singapore such as good hawker food, and there would be lack of local talents. If the death rate is much higher than the birth rate, Singapore would face a lot of troubles, mostly manpower shortage. But the plus side is that it won't be too overcrowded on the little Red Dot. And transportation and studies would be easier and more relaxed. There are many negatives sides, as when the Older Generation leaves, we would lack the "Singapore Kampong" spirit? Due to too many young teenagers, (and even young babies at the age of 2) using their electronic devices, there is a lack of communication and our social skills would decrease.
