Budget 2026 debate: He Ting Ru on releasing regional population projections for Singapore

18:54 Min

Will the government state the maximum population allowable in Singapore and how it plans to deal with that number? Will it also consider releasing population projections by region as part of URA plans? MP He Ting Ru asked these questions in parliament on Wednesday (Feb 25). She said it is fair for residents in high-density estates such as her Sengkang constituency to seek clarity. Releasing that information, she said, will provide a clear picture of whether regional infrastructure is or will be sufficient for comfort and help Singaporeans advocate more meaningfully for urban-related well-being issues such as access to nature and blue spaces.
