Possible, if you have millions of dollars to spare. But will the majority of the population able to afford such technological advances at possibly a high price? Just look at the notebooks which lots of school children couldn’t even afford. We are really getting closer to a huge divide between the haves and the haves-not. Just look at the amount they’re spending on the APEC meeting now on in S’pore. Whose monies they’re spending anyway?

The only thing I want to say about the video is that it’s a good marketing video to sell to investors.

But come on, 2015 is only 6 years away. Half the things in the video won’t be achieved in this time frame. Don’t believe? Someone please keep a copy of this video and we review in 6 years’ time.

Big dreams… but I really don’t wanna live life like that. Only meet for dinner in artificial surroundings? Consumerism being tempted to young kids. People working while driving (drunk driving deaths are enough). People monitoring your heatbeat and what you think and everything you do… crazy! Get me out of here!

Singapore is full of propaganda. Last time I recall is our useless gov is waiting for the USA for recovery amid they are been stratospheric salary and perks. Now showing all hi-tech gadgets and software written by USA …. Even USA doesn’t show off, and PAP want to get credit by showing off ? What are they trying to prove ?

No need for all this fancy stuff lar. Just give us the promised SWISS 1999 STANDARD OF LIVING as promised by GOH CHOK TONG !!!

We are still waiting for this and it is already 2009!!

It’s impossible to achieve all these in 6 years. You need at least 20 years before people invent those high tech stuff. And even so, you must ensure that everyone adopt the same standard.

Just look at the EZlink card now. Not many shops are accepting it as a form of payment. How long do you think it will take before we can standardize the E-Payment method in Singapore?

Wow its really good to know that in this nauseating ‘brave-new-world” type future singapore , somethings never change. Malays are still cab-drivers and indians are service staff , while of course the chinese family is middle class.

seriously i can stop watching this crap because its so hilariously bad. i think getting a robot to fart might have elicited a tiny bit more warmth and realism that the current dialogue and delivery. also i think any future versions of this video should include the poor using holographic devices to busk, and people on the brink using holographic web interfaces to check the horror show that is their bank statements.
