• These identified factors form the basis of immigration policies.
• They are well planned to integrate the comfort of both locals and foreigners and thus the system has to represent a complex logical balance in the flow of people.

Starting off with CLD - Information gathering
• What is your first thought on Singapore before you came here?
• The best thing which you observed here soon after acquainting with the new place?
• Reason for visit or migration? How did the Government or Singapore Organizations support and welcome you?
• Why do you consider a longer stay here?s• How do you feel working or studying in a highly
competitive environment? How is it influencing you personally?

CAUSAL LOOP DIAGRAM (CLD)
CLDs are
Diagrams that have a visible structure of how interrelated variables affect one another. The balancing loop and the reinforcing loop are the two foundational structures of systems thinking.
Causal loop Anatomy:
A Node
A line with arrow
+ or s Same Effect
- or o Opposite Effect
|| Time Delay Symbol

Loops in CLD
• Reinforcing Loop: A loop is one in which an action produces a result which influences more of the same action. It is also called the Positive causal link means that the two nodes change in the same direction
• Balancing Loop: a loop in which feedback reduces the impact of change. It is also called Negative causal link means that the two nodes change in opposite directions

Design Methodology: Understanding the problem statement Collection of information about the problem domain from
various sources Identification of design method
Two methods:1.) From Loops to Variables2.) From Variables to Loops
Identification of quantifiable variables related to the topic Conceptualizing logical loops(re-enforcing and balancing
loops) using the variables Diagram sketch coupled with required changes
