Our dreams is still a matching of Swisss standard living. It was a

Singapore will rise to be a Switzerland of Asia.

Swiss atandard of living was used as a benchmark standards for them to
achieve it. Unfortunately it did not seem to work. It did not rise to
match to Swiss standard.

Since then there was nothing on Swisss to talk about.. The dream is
now gone for good...and.is now "kaput" to the bin.

In terms of city infrastructure index, Singapore ranked 1, and
Switzerland ranked 14 and 15. Even though Switzerland was 33% away
from Singapore, but it has been able to achieve consistently in the
ranks of 1 or 2 in terms of quality of living. In comparison,
Singapore's quality of living was ranked 26, which is 50% away from
Switzerland.

Seriosuly, Singapore should examine the strengths and weaknesses of
Switzerland and focus on how the swiss environments can be learned and
improved in Singapore. This is about the only to rise to the swiss
standard.
