ANSWER
We understand that, at the end of February, 8605 Hong Kong people had been granted approval in principle under the Singaporean Government's $cheme for permanent resident status in Singapore Kcitizenship is not offered under the scheme). Of those granted approval, 588 are now settled in Singapore, of whom 494 had already been living
there when the scheme was introduced.
