Singapore is a port city state and can only be compared with a city like Nairobi or mombasa. Singapore is only 700km2 i.e 35km x 20km which is like from Karen shopping centre to roysambu (S-N) and kangemi to mlolongo (W-E). Infact it's the size of Nairobi. And yes Nairobi has done so much in the past 50yrs.

What's more impressive is how they cleaned up the river. A clean Nairobi river or Athi river can be used as a tourist attraction. River cruises or even as a mode of transport. If only we'd have leaders who would think "There are only two emotions in the market, hope & fear. The problem is you hope when you should fear & fear when you should hope: - Jesse Livermore

The bonus comes after Singapore’s trade-reliant economy grew 3.6 per cent in 2017, its best pace in three years.
Song Seng Wun, an economist for CIMB private banking, said the one-off “hong bao” bonus was a product of Singapore’s economy having a “better than expected outcome” in the last year.

In those decades, Singapore enriched the nation while the Mois and Kenyattas enriched themselves. Business opportunities are like buses,there's always another one coming
