0.85 TFR for next year?

[SaintPeachie]

Lucky we have villagers procreating after migrating here and getting newly minted pink ICs

These 2 weeks we are staying home more often due to haze.
Nothing much to do at home ....so maybe next June will have baby bumper harvest

 

[RuneArmour]

Don't forget the yearly toxic haze our neighbour has been pumping to us. Chiu want chiur kids to breathe in the gas?

not really. the real concern is why all these new citizens here are also choosing not to have kids. if not TFR won't have dropped so much.

then we can see chinese got above 0.6 bor.
esp when we see our friends n relatives. nowadays really is more than 50% singles or DINKs.

AI Overview


Yes, official and tracking data show that the ethnic Chinese community in Singapore has the lowest total fertility rate (TFR) among the major ethnic groups, dropping to around 0.70 children per woman in 2025. [1, 2]

Key Statistics on Chinese TFR in Singapore

• Current Rate: The Chinese TFR stood at approximately 0.70 in 2025, down from 0.71 in 2024 and 0.83 in 2023. [1, 2]
• Historical Context: This is a sharp decline from past decades (for comparison, it was around 1.07 in 2004 and 1.65 in 1990). [1]
• Crude Birth Rate: The crude birth rate (number of births per 1,000 residents) for the Chinese population dropped from 8.6 in 2015 to 5.3 in 2025. [1]
• Deaths vs. Births: Due to this low birth rate combined with an aging demographic, deaths have begun to outstrip births within Singapore's Chinese resident population. [1]

breakdown by 3 major races
wow malays really tank the TFR for sg.

Yes, Singapore tracks the Total Fertility Rate (TFR)—the average number of babies a woman has during her reproductive years—by ethnic group. [1]
Recent figures show clear differences across the major communities, though all groups remain below the replacement level of 2.1. [1, 2]

TFR by Ethnic Group (2024 Data)

• Malays: 1.58
• Indians: 0.91
• Chinese: 0.83
  (Note: Overall national resident TFR for 2024 was 0.97. While final detailed ethnic breakdowns for the historic low 2025 national TFR of 0.87 are still rolling out via official publications like the Singstat Fertility Dashboard, historical patterns show Malays consistently recording the highest fertility rate, followed by Indians and Chinese.) [1, 2, 3]

No need rocket science at all just checking the change in marriage rate, 25 marriage rate is terrible so a drop of 5% or more is well expected. At this point they already knew the number within margin of error, I expect 0.8 flat number 1

Could be higher, haze, stay home nothing to do, so....
