“A Singapore Wish” reflects the population challenges Singapore face, through the intimate portraits of ordinary Singaporeans at the heart of related issues, namely, rising singlehood, fertility decline and ageing population. We centre our stories on people who are not commonly featured or thought of when people think of such issues. We chronicle the challenges they face at different life stages and the steps they took or did not take, to fulfil their wishes, expressed or otherwise. This report will document our final year project journey, providing background for each story and what went on behind the scenes as we compiled our findings. It will also discuss the writing style for our proposed audience, the difficulties we faced and the lessons we learnt.
