The Population White Paper

If we look at the comments and a 10,000-people protest about the Population White Paper (PWP) it looks as if most Singaporeans are against it. I don't believe that is the case. I think there are 4 groups. 

Group 1 support the PWP and the plans that come with it. People in this group do not feel they need to hold a support rally at Hong Lim Park. 

Group 2 are not against. They are willing to see how it works out and then have a review some years later. 

Group 3 do not support because they are not yet convinced of the need to have a bigger population. 

Group 4 are against. Many of these people do not support the Government so they will not change their mind whatever the Government does. I guess many are also anti-foreigners.
