In our conclusion, we found that actually more people wanted to have children because of happiness but they do not want to have more than two children due to the high cost of living in Singapore. The government could only help by giving my father more leave to subsidize their childcare centre and their child's important things...
This project helps us learn more about Singapore and low birth rate. We also learn how to craft a survey and also know how to write a blog. It was not easy to interview cause we are ladies that is shy and do not know how to interview people but we manage it at last. Here are the individual reflections and contribution of our members:

Result & Analysis
Out of the 12-14 people interviewed, five were already married, four were single and none of them wanted to get married. All of them wanted to get married because they wanted to have a family.
Out of 12 people all of them intended to have children. They agreed to have children because of they want to have a next generation and when their old they have someone to take care of them. They also want to have a big family because when their old they will be crowded by childrens and grand childrens and they want to live happily because they don't want to be alone.
The goverment is so concern to have a low birth rate because Singapore have no natural resources. People is our only natural resources because we need people in Sinapore to protect the country and also need to people to work in the economy. They also feel that if Singapore have very low birth rate, there will be lack of manpower in case of defense.
The people say that in the old days, Indians and Malays people have many children but Chinese need to work so they think that one or two children should be enough. Nowsdays, goverment say that people should have more childrens.Some of the people say that the the goverment is afraid that singapore will extinct if there is not enough people. In the future, Singapore's average age will be older so singaporeans should be increase the rate of giving birth.
