Red Dot toying with nuclear option for 10m or 20m population?

 Right. And that is what Iran now wants.


Oops, Red Dot is also doing feasibility studies about having nuclear power stations if I read correctly. A feasibility study in 2012 had deemed it unsuitable for safety reasons. If it does become reality, I wonder where that nuclear power station will be sited. Will neighbors take issue if it is sited on one of the satellite islands close to them? Maybe the Istana will be a good place, next to the President's palace. But in case of a nuclear accident, everyone on the island is going to lose their lives. We have nowhere
r how long can Singaporeans remain underground and how many people can those underground stations take in? Nuclear fallout is not a day or two to be settled. Even smog took weeks to clear. We are talking about years, decades and centuries even.

Just my two cents worth thinking about it. Maybe the experts have already studied the issue and knows how to deal with it. Moreover, China is on the verge of having small nuclear power generating equipment, maybe even portable ones, LOL. Problem is there are still nuclear waste to consider.

Nuclear waste can be stored under the GCB of the ministers.

Good Class Bungalows have huge front yards for siting small nuclear power stations when they become available, LOL. Right, GCB underground can store nuclear waste. Problem solved. I understand even 38, Oxley Road has a basement, suitable for nuclear waste, LOL.

Hope nuclear option is also to help the poor like GST.
