Singapore population is anticipated to expand by 74,000 in 2018 and will reach 5, 827, 000 people in 2019. The population increases by 59,690 individuals annually due to immigrants. On an average, the annual birth and death figures for the nation are 51, 611 and 29, 988 respectively.
The Singapore Government carried out campaigns of late to enhance the fertility ratio to 2.1 from 1.20. These have however been futile. It has thus been forced to alter its policies for immigration. This is to cater to the expanding labor demands owing to the nation’s industrialization.
