Could Singapore Be Living on the Ocean by 2065 ? | Documentary HR · 46:07 · Video: GO Asia · Watch at the source

In short: As land becomes scarce, Singapore is looking toward the sea for its future. This video explores how floating communities could become a primary residential solution by 2065.

The vision for Singapore's urban evolution involves a radical transformation of surrounding waters to accommodate growth. By 2065, the nation aims to establish large-scale floating communities that serve as more than just housing; they are designed to be hubs for essential infrastructure including food cultivation and electricity generation.

This shift toward maritime living is framed as a necessity for staying afloat in an increasingly crowded world. It represents a move from traditional land-based development to integrated, sea-based systems that provide for the population's basic needs while expanding the nation's habitable footprint.
