i would bring back marina bay steamboat/bbq and lesser foreigners, make us feel more singaporean.

malaysia cup days were good but i don't think we sld rejoin the malaysia league.
For me it will be old woodlands centre and old cc near Bendemeer road - but I don't know if it is Whampoa cc or another.
When I was young my mom always bring us go cc to watch tv
Playground
Watch fish in tank
Go to their mini library

Marina south was really big space for families & gathering
Will want national library to be back.
Those public swimming pools & forests that are disappearing.  Beach Road NCO club, old police academy at Thomson Road, Lorong Liew Lian Police Station, Temasek Club at Portsdown, Ang Mo Kio fountain, Open space National Stadium ..so many
:frown:

The low population, comprising of mostly sg born citizens

yes yes, spacious singapore and mostly singaporeaan born citizens.

actually, this is still possible to an extent, but need to vote out pap and wait for a good many years for the new policy to take effect. 

but no choice must bear with i estimate 30% of new singaporeans in our mix already. but i always feel that those who have served NS should be considered one of us.

Come to think of it, those conservation buildings and areas dun really serve their purpose or maybe I misunderstood it

Eg. Chinatown is too modernised.... Might as well turn it into bugis junction

They are heritage. But they are now preserved not exactly for sinkies but for tourists. So, sinkies hardly want to go there liao. Tourists hv taken up our spaces.
