BuildSG2065

We all know that our sunny island Singapore have been through tremendous transformations. 50 years ago, to be exact. 9th August 1965 is the day where Singapore becomes independent after separating from Malaysia.

50 years later. 2015. The greenery, the clean river that we see now. The non air conditioned buses to air conditioned. The shop houses to all the tall HDB flats you see today.  Singapore has been through a lot changes for the past 50 years. BUT! Can you imagine what Singapore would be in another 50 years of time? What do you think our tiny little red dot would turn into in the year 2065?

Now let me share with you my ideas of how I think Singapore should/would be in 2065.

GO GREEN - Imagine in the year 2065, our energy would be generated via the nature of the wind. This, we won't have to worry about bursting our electricity bills.

SMART SPACES - We all wished there were more spaces in Singapore right? So in 2065, I hope that everywhere in Singapore will be connected via slides and we can just take the slide down to our destinations. Imagine living in Jurong and having to book in to Pulau Tekong. All we (boys) have to do is just take a slide and VOILA! We've reached our destinations. Say no more to long waiting public transport!!! ♥

For more information you can take a look at this video to get some inspirations.
