The biggest reason for this shift is how notoriously expensive it is to live in Singapore, and the high cost of living continues to steer many away from expanding their family, analysts told CNBC.

Almost two decades ago, Loh and her husband made a decision not to have children.

Today, 17 years later, the two of them are convinced they made the right choice.

“I may feel differently when I’m on my deathbed and have to die alone, but at the moment, the choice seems right to us,” said the 46-year-old who works in the tech industry.

Loh, who did not want to give her full name, is not alone

I also think she got it right.
This country for the past 10+ years doesn’t seem to run it like a country.
