Marina Bay in Singapore serves as a model for the government's principles of governance to sustain growth in the 21st century. Developments like Marina Bay Sands have attracted more tourists, improved the economy, created jobs, and attracted investors. The underground Marina Bay Link Mall and eco-friendly structures also showcase the government's far-sighted planning to fully utilize land and conserve resources as Singapore grows. Historic sites like Clifford Pier have been repurposed into hotels to further economic growth while reusing existing structures.

of casinos in Singapore, Mr. Lee Kuan Yew continued with this
idea as it can be a great boost to Singapore’s economy and
reassured people with stringent social safeguards

listened to the people’s voices and do what he thinks is right and
may not be very popular with the people.

scarce land of Singapore.

to conserve land in Singapore.

when someone is under it.
 Powered by solar panels instilled in them.
 Escalators with sensors that slow down when nobody is on it.

that the world would run out of resources to generate power through
fossil fuels and is also doing a part to help stop global warming.

10. Clifford Pier

structures to build now buildings to cut down on the resources
needed to construct a new building.
