I have been reading the news and there's a citizen who post a picture on Singapore News.
Picture taken on the MRT train on 13th February 2013.
Picture from Singapore News
Really crowded isn't it? Singapore is such a small place.
Lately Singapore encouraged citizen to have children, and "Baby Bonus Scheme" prize increment is introduced.
From 26 August 2012 (information from babybonus.gov.sg)
You will recieved cash reward of S$6000 for your first and second child and S$8000 each for your third and fourth.
That's a lot of money, I think it is great help since living in Singapore is very costly.
But partially it is a bit worrying, if Singaporean just start to do that a lot just for the cash?
It is like U.K, I had a couple friends we has total of 11 kids!
Before I leave U.K, she told me, "I think I'm pregnant again"
I was shocked and still happy for her, her husband worked in Aldi as assistant manager. And she's not working, do the math.
But still there is people who really love kids, and of course the more the merrier as long you can afford it? Hope just don't get too crazy because of the prize and think carefully.
