Major construction players already started building homes for 6.9 million people even as Khaw Boon Wan tries to convince "daft" Singaporeans that it is only a "worse-case scenario"

Although many Singaporeans have expressed concerns about the projected 6.9 million population growth by 2030, some construction firms are looking to capitalise on this hot-button issue to grow their business.
Ho Toon Bah, Executive Director of Soilbuild Construction Group, explained that the forecasted average construction demand of S$20 billion to S$28 billion per annum for 2014 and 2015 will support the population surge.
“The 6.9 million population figure is good news to us. It means that there are more houses to build and more jobs for us!”
On-going construction projects by the company include three public housing contracts, a building in Changi Business Park, a mixed-use project in Lavender Street and four industrial properties in Bukit Batok, Mandai and Yishun. Full story
