The population density issue is very important. Housing is 99% apartments in Singapore, but LA is sprawling single family homes.
人口密度問題非常重要。新加坡99%的住房是公寓,而洛杉磯則是分散的獨棟住宅。
As a singaporean i personally enjoy the train system (MRT) in singapore. Its pretty quick and can take you almost everywhere you want to go. Its also pretty efficient and the train frequency is also not too bad :)
作為新加坡人,我個人非常喜歡新加坡的地鐵系統(tǒng)(MRT)。它非??旖?,幾乎可以帶你去任何你想去的地方。它的效率也很高,列車頻率也不錯。
I was born in a third world country and I remember how crowded the train was, how loud everything was and being super hot all the time. When my family came to Singapore when I was 9, I remember being amazed by how comfortable both the mrt and the bus were. The fact that both keep on improving is something I appreciate since we’ve never owned a car.
我出生在一個第三世界國家,我記得那里的火車非常擁擠,環(huán)境嘈雜,而且總是非常炎熱。當我9歲時,我的家人來到新加坡,我記得當時對地鐵和公交的舒適感到非常驚訝。它們不斷改進的事實讓我非常感激,因為我們從未擁有過汽車。
As a Singaporean, I used to hate Singapore because I didn't do well in school and was very stressed out due to the intense competition. As I grew older and learned about economics and politics etc., I realised that Singapore is rly one of the best places (when you take everything like safety etc. into consideration) to live in the world. Super grateful rn :)
作為新加坡人,我曾經(jīng)討厭新加坡,因為我在學校表現(xiàn)不好,激烈的競爭讓我壓力很大。隨著年齡的增長,我學習了經(jīng)濟學和政治學等知識后,我意識到新加坡確實是世界上最好的居住地之一(當你考慮到安全等因素時)?,F(xiàn)在我非常感激。
Fun fact, every tree in Singapore has a “name” or tag, it is usually for the government agency to keep track of trees and their health. Nparks is the agency that usually carries out all the greens in Singapore, checking and keeping the greenery’s scattered around the land safe and protected.
For building projects, every tree they cut is billed, every tree they move is also billed. Cutting a tree is more expensive than changing a tree location.
Cutting a tree can cost about 5-7k depending on its size! So builders who choose to cut instead of moving the tree will pay a hefty price!
有趣的事實是新加坡的每棵樹都有一個“名字”或標簽,通常用于政府機構(gòu)跟蹤樹木及其健康狀況。Nparks是負責新加坡所有綠化的機構(gòu),負責檢查和保護散布在各地的綠化。
在建筑項目中,每砍伐一棵樹都會被收費,每移動一棵樹也會被收費??撤淠颈纫苿訕淠靖嘿F。
砍伐一棵樹的費用可能高達5-7千新元,具體取決于樹木的大?。∫虼?,選擇砍伐而不是移動樹木的建筑商將付出高昂的代價!
Malaysian here and I can only say bravo Singapore, I'm happy for you guys but also envious at the same time. Happy for the fact that you guys are one of the best cities in the world even after all the shit we put you through, and envious because you guys actually have a functioning government that cares for the people without being corrupted and crazy over power!
After our recent General Election, I can only foresee that Malaysia will go further into the trenches while SIngapore keeps advancing further and further away from us... If only we had a government like you guys do, things would definitely be so much different. Whatever it may be, keep going Singapore, Majulah Singapura!
我是馬來西亞人,我只能說新加坡太棒了,我為你們感到高興,同時也感到羨慕。高興的是即使經(jīng)歷了我們給你們帶來的種種困難,你們?nèi)匀皇鞘澜缟献詈玫某鞘兄?;羨慕的是你們有一個真正關(guān)心人民、不腐敗、不迷戀權(quán)力的有效政府!
在我們最近的全國大選之后,我只能預見到馬來西亞會進一步陷入困境,而新加坡會繼續(xù)前進,離我們越來越遠……如果我們有一個像你們這樣的政府,事情肯定會大不相同。無論如何,繼續(xù)前進吧,新加坡,前進吧,新加坡!
Everyone talks about trains but I also want to give a huge shoutout to improvements in our bus system - did you know that every single bus stop in Singapore comes with a upxed board that tells you 1) the bus numbers that arrive at this stop 2) the FULL list of stops that EACH bus number goes to?
As a local, this is something really amazing to me; when I use google maps and they tell me where to get off, I just go to the bus stop board and check if I'm headed the right direction. I've travelled to other major cities in Asia and I really feel our bus system, down to our bus stop experiences, are so thoughtfully planned! I've not seen another city where the bus stops are so informative and clean!
Every bus stop has a city bin that's been emptied often by city cleaners.
大家都在談?wù)摰罔F,但我也想大力贊揚我們公交系統(tǒng)的改進——你知道嗎?新加坡的每個公交站都有一個更新的公告板,告訴你1)到達該站的公交線路2)每條公交線路的完整站點列表。
作為本地人,這對我來說非常神奇;當我使用谷歌地圖時,它會告訴我在哪里下車,我只需去公交站公告板檢查我是否走對了方向。我去過亞洲其他的主要城市,我確實覺得我們的公交系統(tǒng),甚至公交站的體驗,都經(jīng)過了深思熟慮的規(guī)劃!我從未見過另一個城市的公交站如此信息豐富且干凈!
每個公交站都有一個城市垃圾桶,由城市清潔工經(jīng)常清理。

Metros in Asia are just way more efficient than US. Not just Singapore, just go to Taipei, HK, Shanghai, Seoul, Tokyo, Osaka, Beijing etc. the dense populations of the urban areas makes metro systems a priority for the government.
亞洲的地鐵系統(tǒng)比美國高效得多。不僅僅是新加坡,臺北、香港(特區(qū))、上海、首爾、東京、大阪、北京等地也是如此。城市地區(qū)的高密度人口使得地鐵系統(tǒng)成為政府的優(yōu)先事項。
Love Singapore. I've been there 4 times, always have a good visit. Like here in Japan, public transportation actually WORKS! They also have tremendously large underground shopping areas (again like Japan) which can double as public shelters in bad weather or other dangerous conditions. The city where I live, Kobe, Japan, is also undertaking new projects to 'green' it and improve our city with more parks, walking-only streets leading through downtown areas, etc. for natural comfort and long-term livability. The designers may have based their ideas on Singapore's changes over the years...
我愛新加坡。我去過那里四次,每次都有很好的體驗。就像在日本一樣,公共交通真的非常有效!他們還有非常大的地下購物區(qū)(再次像日本一樣),這些購物區(qū)可以在惡劣天氣或其他危險情況下作為公共避難所。我居住的城市日本神戶也在進行新的項目,通過增加公園、步行街等來“綠化”城市,改善我們的城市,以實現(xiàn)自然舒適和長期宜居性。設(shè)計師們可能是基于新加坡多年來的變化來構(gòu)思這些想法的。
As an american currently living in singapore for studying the metro surprised me. I don't take a taxis and I rarely take the buses. The metro is always my go to! Makes me want to stay here after my study and live here for the rest of my life!
作為一名目前在新加坡學習的美國人,這里的地鐵讓我感到驚訝。我不打車,也很少坐公交車,地鐵一直是我的首選!這讓我想在學習結(jié)束后留在這里,并在這里度過余生!
People can complain and say that the government is authoritarian and it is very expensive to live in Singapore. But no country is perfect, and as a Singaporean, you can live quite happily even if you're not wealthy. The stable government with one ruling party for over 50 years, with the ultimate goal of success, proved that governments around the world needed to work towards a single goal, and not just opposing one another just for the sake of it. Other parties challenge them so that they can be kept on their toes. Other than that, some rules such as the COE and high cost of living are just sacrifices we as Singaporeans accept, in exchange for efficient traffic flow, higher standards of living, higher minimum wages, etc. We love to complain about our life here, but honestly, its just because we have nothing else to complain about.
人們可以抱怨說新加坡的政府是專制的,而且在新加坡生活非常昂貴。但沒有哪個國家是完美的,作為新加坡人,即使你不富有,你也可以生活得相當幸福。一個執(zhí)政黨執(zhí)政超過50年的穩(wěn)定政府,以成功為最終目標,證明了世界各地的政府需要朝著一個目標努力,而不是為了反對而反對。其他政黨挑戰(zhàn)他們以使他們保持警惕。除此之外,一些規(guī)則如擁車證和高生活成本只是我們新加坡人以換取高效的交通流量、更高的生活水平、更高的最低工資等需要付出的犧牲。雖然我們喜歡抱怨這里的生活,但說實話,這只是因為我們沒有其他可抱怨的。
Singaporean here. What the govt did and has always been doing for a long time, is going to different cities to learn and these ideas feed into a Singapore-centric matrix where certain ideas are implemented. So basically we learn the good and the bad and we took what was beneficial and urban planning is huge here.
我是新加坡人。政府長期以來一直在做的是去不同的城市學習,這些想法被納入以新加坡為中心的矩陣中,某些想法得以實施。所以基本上我們會學習好的和壞的并采納有益的部分,城市規(guī)劃在這里非常重要。
The value of those covered walkways throughout the city can’t be underestimated. They’re similar to those in Hong Kong which are a modern marvel.
Instead of finding your way by-foot on sidewalks, the walkways are like mini-highways that connect all major areas of the city & seemlessly blend into & through buildings, parks, malls, metro & ship stations, and the air-conditioned subterranean shopping & transport systems.
遍布城市的帶頂人行道的價值不可低估,它們類似于香港(特區(qū))的那些,是現(xiàn)代奇跡。
與其在人行道上步行找路,這些人行道就像連接城市所有主要區(qū)域的迷你高速公路,無縫融入并穿過建筑物、公園、商場、地鐵站和碼頭以及帶有空調(diào)的地下購物和交通系統(tǒng)。
Just a fun fact that I love to share, NEWater or treated waste water is so much purer compared to tap water that it is used mostly in industries where high purity clean water is required such as in chip and wafer manufacturing.
一個我喜歡分享的有趣事實是NEWater或處理過的廢水比自來水純凈得多,主要用于需要高純度清潔水的行業(yè),如芯片和晶圓制造。
Seeing a lot more Singapore content recently, and while I definitely have been searching/looking into content related to the city, it feels like people are appreciating the city more. Not sure if Singaporeophile is a word but I’d describe myself as one, very impressed by the city.
我最近看到過更多關(guān)于新加坡的內(nèi)容,雖然我確實一直在搜索/查看與這座城市相關(guān)的內(nèi)容,但感覺人們越來越欣賞這座城市。我不確定“新加坡愛好者”是否是一個詞,但我會用這個詞來形容自己,我對這座城市印象深刻。
Simple, the US hasn't cared nor does care about public transportation. It's all about cars, cars, cars. Metro sucks, trains suck, buses suck. It's the difference between designing a city with a focus on public transportation Vs doing it with a focus on oil profits.
很簡單,美國從未關(guān)心過公共交通,一切都與汽車、汽車、汽車有關(guān)。地鐵很糟糕,火車很糟糕,公交車很糟糕,這是以公共交通為重點設(shè)計的城市與以石油利潤為重點設(shè)計的城市之間的區(qū)別。
I just came back from a 2 week stay in Singapore. This video is absolutely correct. I saw maybe one or two petrol/gas stations, and there are a lot of covered walkways. You only see expensive cars (Porsche, Benz, Lamborghini, etc) or taxi cabs on the road. I was told it was because of the car taxes, prices, 10 year registration, etc.
Everyone lives in public housing, but they are really nice and have gardens on some levels, trees and flowers growing on the buildings. I was told the President's Wife spearheaded the effort to plant flowers on every building. It is a really, really, clean, beautiful city.
Also, the Marquee Singapore Nightclub was the best club I've ever been in. It had a 4 story video wall behind the DJ, a Ferris wheel on the 3rd floor with a slide down to the bathrooms. It was amazing!
我剛從新加坡停留兩周回來,這個視頻絕對正確。我只看到了一兩個加油站,而且有很多帶頂?shù)娜诵械?。在路上你只能看到昂貴的汽車(保時捷、奔馳、蘭博基尼等)或出租車,我被告知這是因為汽車稅、價格、10年注冊期等原因。
每個人都住在公共住房里,但它們非常漂亮,有些樓層有花園,建筑物上種滿了樹木和鮮花。我被告知總統(tǒng)夫人帶頭在每棟建筑物上種花。這是一個非常非常干凈、美麗的城市。
此外,Marquee新加坡夜總會是我去過的最好的夜總會。DJ后面有一個四層樓的視頻墻,三樓有一個摩天輪,滑梯通向洗手間。太棒了!
A lot of Singapore's wonderful modern efficient systems are taken for granted by Singaporeans. There's a lot of things I love and hate about my country of Singapore but I count my blessings everyday I was very fortunate to be born and raised here. We're a very tiny dot in the world but I honestly wouldn't to really live anywhere else.
許多新加坡人將新加坡美妙的現(xiàn)代高效系統(tǒng)視為理所當然。關(guān)于我的國家新加坡,雖然我對有很多事情又愛又恨,但我每天都感激自己非常幸運地能在這里出生和成長。我們是世界上一個非常小的點,但老實說,我真的不想生活在其他地方。
I believe safety is also the main factor in the differences in ridership. Every metro system that I visited in Asia is clean, safe (day or night), and uses by all classes of people. I can't say the same for America for obvious reasons.
我相信安全也是乘客量差異的主要因素。我在亞洲訪問過的每個地鐵系統(tǒng)都很干凈、安全(白天或晚上),并且被所有階層的人使用。由于顯而易見的原因,我不能說美國也是如此。
It's quite simple - Singapore, like the Netherlands, has an integrated transport, infrastructure and land use network with a political system that's relatively stable and all the land owned by the state. America and Britain, in contrast, have a fragmented infrastructure network, awful planning and a political system that favours individuals over the collective thus, everything is more difficult to deal with, ultimately raising costs and delays. It's not rocket science why Singapore and the Netherlands work in favour of its people, not the privileged few.
很簡單——新加坡和荷蘭一樣,擁有一個綜合的交通、基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施和土地利用網(wǎng)絡(luò),政治制度相對穩(wěn)定,所有土地都歸國家所有。相比之下,美國和英國的基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施網(wǎng)絡(luò)分散,規(guī)劃糟糕,政治制度偏向個人而非集體,因此一切都更難處理,最終增加了成本和延誤。新加坡和荷蘭為人民而不是少數(shù)特權(quán)階層服務(wù),這并不是什么高深的科學。
I live in Singapore and there's an MRT station 10 mins away by foot from my house, the way there is almost completely sheltered. I find it pretty convenient already, but then they're in the midst of building another MRT station just 5 mins away by foot. It'll be even easier to get to the other side of Singapore in the future.
我生活在新加坡,離我家步行10分鐘就有一個地鐵站,去那里的路幾乎完全有遮蔽。我已經(jīng)覺得非常方便了,但他們正在建造另一個地鐵站,離我家步行只需5分鐘。未來去新加坡的另一邊將更加容易。
Having grown up in Singapore and used public transport and it’s amazing road infrastructure, has set a gold standard for me …. Moving out of the country to Pune my birthplace with currently inhumane levels of road traffic and pollution has triggered a condition called ‘Road traffic anxiety’ in me it’s Real, I really feel bad for myself and the people of this city, whose ancestors didn’t have a vision for how shit things could get, if they didn’t regulate private vehicles and invest in public transport. Pune had great environment, weather, natural resources but sadly no Vision, and it set on a self destructive path. In the same time SG with little means but visionary leaders, built truly one of the best cities in the world, I love both the cities , but I can see a future in one and abyss in the other
在新加坡長大并使用公共交通及其驚人的道路基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施為我樹立了黃金標準……搬到我的出生地浦那,我發(fā)現(xiàn)那里目前的道路交通和污染水平令人難以忍受,這引發(fā)了我所謂的“道路交通焦慮”,這是真實的,我真的為自己和這個城市的人們感到難過,他們的祖先沒有預見到如果不規(guī)范私家車并投資公共交通,情況會變得多么糟糕。浦那有很好的環(huán)境、天氣和自然資源,但遺憾的是沒有遠見,它走上了自我毀滅的道路。與此同時,新加坡雖然資源有限,但擁有有遠見的領(lǐng)導人,他們把新加坡建成了世界上最好的城市之一。我愛這兩個城市,但我能看到一個城市的未來,而另一個城市則陷入了深淵。
I lived there for a number of years in the 80's and was always impressed at their logical, analytic planning. They learned from the mistakes of other countries! Bravo! It may have been expensive, but I loved it. I miss it and praise it to my friends all the time.
我在上世紀80年代在那里生活過幾年,一直對他們邏輯嚴密、分析周密的規(guī)劃印象深刻。他們從其他國家的錯誤中學習!太棒了!雖然可能很昂貴,但我很喜歡。我懷念它并經(jīng)常向朋友們贊美它。

recently i tried walking home from my current school all the way back home to realise it takes around 50 mins. but while using public transport its shortened to around 15 to 20 mins. im really grateful that there is public transport almost everywhere in singapore because it really makes our travelling so much easier.
最近我試著從學校步行回家,發(fā)現(xiàn)需要大約50分鐘,但使用公共交通時,時間縮短到大約15到20分鐘。我真的很感激新加坡幾乎到處都有公共交通,因為它確實讓我們的旅行變得更加容易。
My goodness, this is one of the most accurate, comprehensive yet concise info videos of Singapore. Superbly done!! Perhaps just to add: S'pore was humble enuf to acknowledge that they did not have the expertise to urban plan, so they sought UN's help to better understand land use and then transportation options resulting in a first Sg Concept Plan in 1971, Sg similarly sought advice on economic matters too. One thing it decided on its own is to be the most open and least corrupt place to do business (in regards to the other less attractive places in SE-Asia at the time.
天哪,這是關(guān)于新加坡最準確、全面而又簡潔的信息視頻之一。做得太棒了!也許可以補充一點:新加坡非常謙虛地承認他們沒有城市規(guī)劃的專業(yè)知識,因此他們尋求聯(lián)合國的幫助以更好地了解土地利用和交通選擇,從而在1971年制定了第一個新加坡概念規(guī)劃,新加坡同樣在經(jīng)濟事務(wù)上也尋求了建議。它自己決定的一件事是成為最開放、最不腐敗的商業(yè)場所(相對于當時東南亞其他不太有吸引力的地方)。
Thank you for featuring Singapore, it is amazing to see my home country being showcased. The government has really stepped up on improving green spaces in Singapore in recent years, alot of colourful plants are now planted along streets to beautify the area and encourage walking. It is not perfect living here and stress levels are very high as a student but you can tell that the government is trying their best. As a citizen, I can really appreciate living here
感謝你們展示新加坡,看到我的祖國被展示真是太棒了。近年來,政府確實加大了改善新加坡綠地的力度,現(xiàn)在街道兩旁種植了許多色彩繽紛的植物以美化該地區(qū)并鼓勵步行。雖然在這里生活并不完美,作為學生壓力很大,但你可以看出政府正在盡力。作為公民,生活在這里我真的很感激。
I really love how Singapore government implemented certain rules to keep the country advantageous to its population. For example, the easy public transportation that makeup for the expensive cost of buying cars. Also fine for littering to keep city clean. A lot of it effected Singapore environment in a huge size which not found in a lot of cities with the same population.
我真的很喜歡新加坡政府實施某些規(guī)則以保持國家對其人民的優(yōu)勢。例如,便捷的公共交通彌補了購買汽車的高昂成本,還有對亂扔垃圾的罰款以保持城市清潔。其中很多對新加坡環(huán)境產(chǎn)生了巨大影響,這在許多人口相同的城市中是找不到的。
The last part of the video shows a big con of democracy. Having opposing parties and quick turnover like the US just means that most proposals are just outright denied or cancelled once the next party takes over. This also leads politicians to just pander to voters without actually keeping promises just because they only want votes. How can you run a country well when every plan you make is opposed and you only have less than 4 or 8 years to do it.
視頻的最后一部分展示了民主的一個大缺點,像美國這樣有反對黨和快速更替的政權(quán)意味著大多數(shù)提案一旦下一黨上臺就會被直接拒絕或取消,這也導致政客們只是為了選票而迎合選民而不真正兌現(xiàn)承諾。當你制定的每個計劃都遭到反對,而你只有不到4年或8年的時間去實施時,你怎么能治理好一個國家呢?
Tx for an awesome video. Sustainable development rests on 3 pillars - enviro integrity, economic prosperity & social justice. Singapore ticks most boxes. One challenge not covered in your video was the eradication of corruption in all aspects of urban governance.
Other great cities that has made sustainable urban planning, development & management a priority include Curitiba, Medellin, Bogota & Tirana. There are great cities in Scandanavia, but being wealthy developed countries, there are fewer challenges & solutions are less holistic & complete - usually focused around urban mobility & inclusive street design.
感謝這個精彩的視頻??沙掷m(xù)發(fā)展依賴于三大支柱——環(huán)境完整性、經(jīng)濟繁榮和社會正義,新加坡在大多數(shù)方面都做得很好。你的視頻中未涵蓋的一個挑戰(zhàn)是在城市治理的各個方面根除腐敗。
其他將可持續(xù)的城市規(guī)劃、發(fā)展和管理作為優(yōu)先事項的偉大城市包括庫里提巴、麥德林、波哥大和地拉那。斯堪的納維亞也有一些偉大的城市,但由于是富裕的發(fā)達國家,挑戰(zhàn)較少,解決方案也不那么全面——通常集中在城市交通和包容性街道設(shè)計上。
I've ridden LA's metro system, but it's... not great. It's always dirty, smells bad, and is full of panhandlers and homeless people. Sexual harassment and theft are rampant. Most of the stations are purposefully designed to be "honor system" so nobody bothers to pay fares. I don't begrudge the people just looking for a sheltered place to sleep, but the trains and stations are crawling with people who are out to harass and bother others. The system would enjoy more ridership if it was known to be cleaner and less dangerous.
我坐過洛杉磯的地鐵系統(tǒng),但它……并不好,它總是很臟,氣味難聞,到處都是乞丐和無家可歸的人,性騷擾和盜竊猖獗,大多數(shù)車站故意設(shè)計為“榮譽系統(tǒng)”,所以沒有人費心支付車費。我不怨恨那些只是尋找庇護所睡覺的人,但火車和車站里到處都是騷擾和打擾他人的人。如果它更干凈、更安全,這個系統(tǒng)會吸引更多的乘客。
