Singapore rose from expulsion to wealth in one lifetime
7 min read
Singapore became independent on 9 August 1965 with no natural resources, no industrial base, and limited water. By 2024, GDP per person reached US$90,674, up from roughly US$517 in 1965. The state built industrial land, attracted multinationals, and created public housing, transforming a resource-scarce port into one of the world's richest economies.
