"The report found Singapore allocated about US$5 billion to defense in its 1999 budget, up slightly from the previous year.

Thailand's defense spending in 1999 was about US$2.57 billion, while Malaysia's was US$2.03 billion and the Philippines' defense budget was US$1.48 billion.

Australia's defense spending was larger than those three countries at US$7.5 billion, or about 7.73 percent of the government's budget, according to the report. "


Imagine the things the world can do without the need for the military. Keep in mind the figures above are only for military. It excludes Internal Securities like the Police and even money companies set aside for security purposes.

Things that will happen:

Singapore will have more land for economic use. Tekong can be turned into a holiday resort with large beaches. Being well positioned, it can attract alot of visitors from across the straits.

Girls from JC will now not be able to meet older men in Universities.

Men will go to Universities with girls, their age. They'll not be able to cheat those young girls anymore.

We won't need doors.

I'll be jobless.

Together with ALOT OF other NSFs and Regulars.
