Do we think that the shape/course of the Singapore will change in the future?
No. This is because the shape of the Singapore River has been the same throughout the past. Thus, it is not likely that the shape of the Singapore River will change. Also, there are buildings surrounding the Singapore River, and it is highly unlikely that the Singapore River will be able to change its course in the future.
