[Introduction]

Singapore is a city-state with a total population of 5.45 million, of which 3.99 million are residents (i.e., citizens and permanent residents); and its resident unemployment rate was relatively low at 3.5%, as at end December 2021 (Ministry of Manpower, 2022). The infant mortality rate is also comparatively low at 1.8 per 1000 live births but the nation's total fertility rate has fallen steadily over the last decade to 1.12 births per female (Department of Statistics Singapore, 2021a). The average size of resident households is 3.22 persons and 78.7% of the resident population live in subsidised public housing (also known as "Housing Development Board/HDB dwellings") and such flat ownership is high at 87.9% (Department of Statistics Singapore, 2021b).
