That's quite impossible. Singapore's GDP was roughly 300 Billion USD last year. Some economists expect it to be 388 billion in 2020.

那是完全不可能的。新加坡去年的国内生产总值大概是3000亿美元。一些经济学家预计，到2020年也就3880亿。

In Contrast here are some other GDPs of Chinese Cities/SARs.

在此对比下中国一些城市/特别行政区的国内生产总值。

Hong Kong - 320 Billion.

香港——3200亿美元。

Shanghai - 400 Billion.

上海——4000亿美元。

These are 2015 Numbers for Shanghai alone from Deutsche Bank

这些上海2015年的数据是来自德意志银行的独立报告。

As you can see Shanghai by itself has a higher GDP than Signapore and that doesn’t count the rest of China’s economy.

如你所见的上海自身的GDP就比新加坡要高，这还没算上中国其它地区的经济。

Singapore economy is also growing at a smaller rate than China; roughly 2.2% in 2015 compared to over 5% for China.

新加坡经济增长的速率比中国也要低一些，2015年大概是2.2%，相比起来中国则超过了5%。

These numbers also don’t take into account reserves natural resources etc of which China has 10x as Singapore has little to none. Its a service based economy that is predominately fueled by Banking/Investment Telecom tourism and more recently startups/biotech.

这也还未计入自然资源储量等，这些数据中国要10倍于新加坡，比较而言新加坡就相当于没有。新加坡是一个服务型经济，主要依靠的产业是银行/投资业、电信产业、旅游业以及最近的创新产业/生物技术产业。

China's vegetables yes.

买中国的蔬菜倒是可以 .

China itself no.

要买下中国是不可能的 .

Duh question gets duh answer.

什么样的答案要取决于什么样的问题.

Also Singapore will never want to buy China Wine. It's a horrible scam. Geisha gyrating to horrible MTV notwithstanding.

另外，新加坡也永远不会买中国的葡萄酒。这是一个很可怕的骗局。尽管如此，那些艺妓还是会在糟糕的MTV里转来转去。

I burned a few lifetimes of karma watching that gyrations I don't have to reincarnate back here anymore.

我烧了几辈子的业力，这样我不用转世回来了。

That would be quite impossible no matter how far into the future we look. On the other hand it’s quite possible for China to buy Singapore. China has the economic muscle and pull to overcome Singapore if it chooses to. Then again the consequences for such an action might prove to be more detrimental to China than the benefits of owning the piece of island called Singapore.

无论我们拥有未来有多远，这几乎是不可能的。从另一方面来讲，中国倒是很有可能收购新加坡。如果中国愿意的话，中国有经济实力来战胜新加坡。不过话又说回来，这种行为的后果可能会对中国造成很大的损害，而且不是拥有一个叫做新加坡的岛屿所带来的好处所比得上的。

Yes the current GDP of Singapore is USD 300billion the same as that of China in 1990. If Singapore did make its breakthrough in technology although currently having one of the lowest return rate on investment in research and China experience warlord decades. That is highly possible theoretically in that case. But what is the point of asking such a question?

当今新加坡的GDP是三千亿美刀，相当于1990年的中国。如果新加坡能在科技上有所突破，尽管科研是目前回报率最低的投资之一，并且中国经历个数十年的军阀割据，那么在理论上是很有可能的。但问这个问题出发点是什么呢？

Ask the Singaporean if they want to buy.
Ask the Chinese if they want to sell.
Then who decides to buy?
Then who decides to sell?

问问新加坡它是否愿意买。
问问中国又是否愿意卖。
谁决定去买？
谁决定去卖？

In fact above all the questions above how do you define "buying a country"? This is far more complicated than a simple buy-and-sell business.

事实上所有这些提问要看你怎么定义"买一个国家"，这远比买卖交易复杂得多。

That’s a wonderful choice. All chinese people would love to do the deal. Assume after 10 years through a referendum Singapore will change their country name into some sort of People’s Republic of Great China. Please replace Singapore with US. That’d be perfect.

那是个极好的选择 . 所有的中国人都会喜欢这个交易的 . 加入10年后进行选民公决 新加坡会把国名改为某种 大中华人民共和国之类的名字. 请把新加坡换成美国吧. 那就完美了.

I'm quite sure it's possible the other way around.

我非常肯定 如果是反过来那是有可能.

Some have already jokingly referred to Singapore as the "Southernmost Province of China"
