(Xinhua via COMTEX) -- Singapore universities will add 2,000 more places for local students by 2015, while the foreign enrollment will be capped at present levels, Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong announced on Sunday evening.

Lee's speech has been widely expected to address the concerns of the local population following the recent general election. Full story
