Nuclear Power Plant in SG?

Most probably LHL n his PAP government need money again,coz building a nuclear plant would save them alot of money in term of energy consumption.
But i dont understand,from various tax like GST,COE,income tax n many others,they should have no financial problem at all,if they know how to spend their money wisely.
But from what i saw,our infrastruture n facilities keep on tear down n rebuild,tear down n rebuild,tear down n rebuild,or upgrade,upgrade,upgrade,like that even if LKY is trillionare or national reserve got trillion dollars,LHL n his men will also use it up n declare bankcrupt!!!
Other countries buildings n infrastructure can last for 60-100 yrs or even more,ours keep tearing down n rebuild,like that how can?And it is also bad for the environment also,as all this create more pollution during the tearing n rebuilding process.
And also,LHL only see the "advantages" of building a nuclear power plant,n neglect what will happen if a nuclear disasters hit us.I believe he is too optimistic about the nuclear technology,thats why he want to build a nuclear plant in this small island without considering much of the consequences...

U know,i really hate to login n spend time in here,coz i also have my own problems.But this PAP really....Life already full of all kinds of problems but they create even more,what a F**King losers!!
I mean why cant they be more steady.

yeah.....if it blows....let's die together....forget running away... anyway it should be bulid in paula ubin. like that can affect malaysians

I reckon nuclear is the way to go in the future, I fully support the idea. It may seem radical, and somewhat risky, but if you gotta do it, you gotta do it.
Even crossing the road when the green man is in your favour is still a risk, you try your best to minimise, and control the risk, but ultimately its still inherent.

Now even Communist China learn from us,tear down n rebuild buildings n infrastructures that are quite new.There is one Taiwan news that report got a hotel that build n operate like 2 yrs only,n they tear down the entire hotel n rebuild,what a waste of resources.They like our PAP government want to show how "wealthy" they are.What a bunch of stupid sh!t.

We are a country where kids hack each other up at family amusement parks, for staring.

U want to die here,i dont want.Bye.

You are also a kid who support nuclear plant to build in here,still dare to say others.LOL!!!

Nuclear plants are safe, and have a good track record. So far, none "blew" up in a mushroom cloud. Chernobyl was a Soviet Reactor, and if anyone of you ever bought any product made in a socialist economy, you will know its quality is horrible.
On the other hand, gas power plants have a greater propensity to blow up due to its explosive nature.
I think the only problem with building a nuclear power plant is a matter of lead time for construction, international safety approvals etc. It can take 10 - 25 years... who knows whether by then the output will be sufficient or not.
-
......will the pub bills be cheaper??if it wont bemuch more cheaper better n faster....to hell with the nuclear plant...i dun want it.
-
just like the mrt trains......?i dont see it being cheaper or better...only faster.1/3.how do u feel if u had something that gave u a1/3 of the requirements u seek?

I'd be more interested to see how other nations react to this decision.
Given the big hooo haaa with Iran, will Singapore suffer the same fate ?

If some ppl here want to build nuclear plant in Singapore,go ahead,i could care less.Afterall,i dont intend to stay in Singapore my whole life.
I dont know why some ppl study so high for what f**k,in the end,they behave as naive as a 12 yrs old kids...

Hopefully before wanting to have nuclear plant together with our neighours, spore should learn the lesson of water agreement with malaysia.
-
Yes a very bold ambition to have one nuclear plant, but, do bear in mind if one day spore really have one, do you guys think our pub bills will reduce? Answer NO. WILL INCREASE EVEN HIGHER.
-
if the electricity bill increase, i compliant

Trust me...sure increase.I never heard anything decrease, only increase.
-
ohhhh.... better not bulid
-
......................so far after 10 years from mrt fares...food......pub bills.... and even a simple movie ticket prices are always expensive.
-
Everything increase, errr..what thing never increase? Those that are ban in spore lke chewing gum.
-
is ok..trhey wil build it anyway and still charge u more for power.....uranium stoks depleted etc....or they can say its only plugged into industrial power supply.actually start up costs are higher than conventional powern plants.uranium is however abundant n cheaper than coal to run.....so uranium it is.the disadvantage is that the waste has to be kept somewhere,,,and that waste is considered as a weapon itself as it can be used as a dirty bomb.
-
they build nuclear plant but still charge same price n say its ecoloogical frendly as compared to coal etc etc.best someone go invent solar powered device to charge up handphones n laptops n tv n fan.
dun need their power supply anymore...they can build but no one would use it .
-
actually they have solar charger to recharge handphones....soon they will have those solar charger to charge up lap top n lcd tv....n fan.....just no one cares to make one.
-
Cos many human heads are not charge yet...they need solar charge first, install solar cell in top on their skulls

No. Iran's situation is very different due to the type of reactor its pursuing. There two main types that you may have heard before. One is "light-water" and the other is "heavy-water."
Iran is pursuing heavy-water reactors (or rather pursued and activated), while Singapore's will most probably be light-waters. Iran is getting into trouble for building heavy-water reactors as their byproducts such as Plutonium can be used for weapons. On top of that, Iran has also constructed centrifuges that allows them to further enrich the plutonium til its "weapons grade", that is, a high level of enrichment thats beyond what is necessary for energy generation. Hence, heavy-water reactors are often associated with potential military uses.
Light-waters on the other hand are safer and can only be applied for energy generating purposes. Spent fuel cannot be re-enriched and have to be returned to another country like the U.S., Russia, to get them re-enriched. Light-water reactors are safer and generally more stable as releasing light-water will stop further reactions and shut down the reactor.
Hence, not only are light-water reactors an internationally legal option for Singapore, it is also the safest. Our neighbours won't have anything to say since these cannot be applied for weapons/military purposes.
