Improving the living environment of Singapore.
For the past quarter century, the government of Singapore has redeveloped the city with multiple objectives. The city should be free of squatters, slums and pollutive influences. It should be clean, green and healthy for living. All necessary infrastructures are provided and function well. All the necessary building floor spaces are available to facilitate the daily needs of the people and to enhance economic growth.While all of these objectives should be kept and augmented, the city must now update its position and even give added attention to the quality of the living environment, visual and otherwise, in order to make Singapore a tropical city of excellence. This paper attempts to review the past achievements and outline the approaches envisaged for the near future.
