Sorry, I should have elaborated. It's a city state with unusually high levels of both social compliance and government control, population is fairly wealthy and fairly evenly distributed. So - small population is a very small area simplifies logistics a ton. Especially ignoring problems related to migrant workers (it's own set of problems), most people have both high social support and some financial depth, there is also little to no housing insecurity.
It's basically unclear if you can successfully scale the Singapore model, nobody has tried. As against, e.g. , the several universal models that are outperforming the US currently, with more comparable populations etc.
