There's a short CNA documentary in UA-cam that shows Singapore has already been planning for 100 storey apartment housing with greenery every 20 storeys and horizontal travellators.
This really brought the Battle for Singapore to life for me as it made it so easy to understand what took place thanks to the timeline and photographs of the area as it was in 1942. My father was in the Royal Artillery and was fighting on the 316 Battery and this has given me a real taste for what our troops were experiencing. I would have liked to know more about Gordon Bennett - did he really go against orders to save his own life? Excellent film, hope to see more like this.
As a tiny developed modern city state, the way you approach issues like HV Cable and all sorts of other will be different from developing country, you just can't do as them since existing circumstances are different in many ways. 👩🎓👨🎓
9:25 The study ranking of cities based on the density of their mass transit only includes the few cities that were selected in the underground utilization benchmark. It lacks many, including the densest of all, Paris, which has more than 150km of its network inside the 105km² constraints of Paris proper city limits. That puts the length of underground mass transit per square kilometer well in the thousands of meters or more than a kilometer per square kilometer. The video was extremely interesting and informative.
what so special or unique when singaporean digging a tunnel there's lot of marvel tunnel thru the mountains under the sea under the ground all over the world ..
Singapore is going down, how about Up as well? Build roads above roads.Turn Singapore into a multi level city. Think HengSha like in Deus Ex: Human Revolution
Am fairly sure it will have been addressed but am concerned about the added risk from global warming. Press reports of the impact of the Thwaites glacier melting (and more critically the glacier behind it) estimate a sea rise of 10 feet resulting. Thwaites is projected to melt over next 5 years, have not seen estimate for 10 foot rise after that. Am sure measures have been taken to prevent water ingress but it only takes one unforeseen incident to compromise entire infrastructure.
Just a thought, why isn't there a way to have easy access to the cables under the road? Instead of digging up the roads every time they need to do maintenance?
1) Not enough space, still need to reserve space for future development. 2) Even if the space is there, building a accessible cable chamber mean need to have proper security measure or electronic surveillance to prevent tampering. 3) Cost of direct buried/ haunched pipe under the road is much cheaper than building an accessible cable chamber. The maintenance is usually once every 10 years, unless it is diversion for new services.
Main reason is digging is cheap because 1. Cost of inconveniences, pollution, jam, danger, loss of productivity, loss of quality of life to the neighbourhood are not priced in. 2. Foreign labor is cheap.
Telecom fibres optics cables are so much tiny in diameter even when bunched together which use pipes and manholes for easy access for maintenance and repair. Electricity cables are much more bigger in diameter and creating joints and repair are much more complexes which need bigger space to carry out joints and repairs. It is undesirable to put all the joints in one single holes as any explosion may burn the surrounding cables and causes bigger area of outages. Therefore manholes are impractical for laying electricity cable.

Why doesn't SG just take over East Malaysia and expand there...lol. If it makes a good political pitch, I am sure East Malaysia can be persuaded to leave MY and join SG.
The land is their. The road is my grandfather road. The bank is their ahgong,. What's they cannot do.. Utimately if flood happen, they blame to weather landscape change.. Left Right they always right.. And the money they spent on infrastructure, from issues financial services like notes like bond so utimately no need invest a cent, still got capital and utimately still generate recursive income.. A very good deal 🤝..
As one of Singapore's neighbors I'm really envious of their public facility and infrastructure, very advanced 👍🏻
But lacks space for their future civilization.

Of course you would know that.

Are you from the UK?
Incredible. I work for NYC. It's like third world compared to this.
NYC needs cheap labor
Real interesting. So advanced and developed. And creative. In land use.
Kudos to SG. They are very good planners and builders!

going Underground .......💯💯💯 it well plan and constructed
Good job and smart govt of SG.👍👍
nxt time they ask you to stay in underground house,while forigners stay above ground ,locals stay in underground homes.
They also drink recycled water when you may have no water. So why not?
Well done Singapore. 👍

If i remember correctly, DPM Tony Tan mentioned about the plan 20yrs ago.
Time for Singapore to fully utilize SPOT robot! 👍
0:31 lol at blueprints that say “INFRASTRUCTURE” 😂
Impressive!
BLOODY🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
Wow SG
We should use Pulau ubin for farming food..

👍👍👍👍👍BEST ONE😇🖐
Low ses, lower wage worker will stay below.. rich will stay above land
FREEHOLD MILLIONS $ HOMES.
Power cables don’t actually work better underground, if anything worse. (Those which do not have a specific large tunnel for easy repair
What is the oxygen level as we go deeper?
The unvaxxed will live underground
Yes true
EVERYONE ..... TOP SOIL🙏

best plan
wouldnt it be cheaper and faster to rethink the above ground way we live. larger mega buildings that are like small cities.

Why dont u try to think up a way to get at cables underneath a road
17:14 thats really good, I hope Jakarta and Kuala Lumpur also can do the same.
DONT
How the are going to do that ?
Before the are start the are mind how to korup 🤣
No need.. too expensive and unnecessary
kl still have alot of space
