Living space getting smaller and smaller.

Stakeholders : the process of identifying those affected by a project or event.
From Wiki.
As I understand, for my group, stakeholders are Singapore citizen and foreigners who settle in this city. I choose to be a citizen.

Mary, is a 27 years old ordinary office worker, who just change a company located in Bugis. She goes to work every day but feels so boring and depressed. She also moved into a new house for getting closer to the new company, but the place is only half size of the place she used to live. Every morning she has to take a fast shower in a narrow bathroom, rush to bus stop taking bus. Only 9 bus stations, but takes her 30 minus because of the morning traffic jams. Day by day, she feels like herself is a working machine. Sometimes, she longed to find a quiet corner to rest, to calm down, but seems like that is a very difficult thing for her right now. Every corner of this city have been filled with the noise. So she began to miss the time that she running    across the courtyard in her hometown when she was a child, she began to recall the memory of junior high school that she walking in the path alone under the moon…… She began to regret moving out from the old apartment. Although when she think about others live in the same way as hers, she feels balance, but the changes of living space brought her psychological distress can not be eliminated.

As we can see, the consequences of living space getting smaller and smaller have effected the normal life of most citizen.
