what's on channelnewsasia today?

1) Singapore's total population grew to 4.84m in 2008, up 5.5% over previous year

Channelnewsasia

with a quarter of the population being foreigners, i say that is a pretty substantial number. imagine for every majong table you set up, there's a foreigner there. pretty amazing how many people can squeeze into this little red dot.


2) Chinese star Jet Li 'takes Singapore citizenship'
