Marriages between citizens and non-citizens up
In 2011, 31.1% of citizen births had a non-citizen parent at the time of birth.
The National Population and Talent Division of the Prime Minister’s Office reported:
In line with the increasingly globalised nature of Singapore society, a significant proportion of marriages are between citizens and non-citizens. As a result, the share of citizen births to citizen/non-citizen parents has increased in recent years. In 2011, 31.1% of citizen births had a non-citizen parent at the time of birth, as compared to 24.8% in 2000.
