A succesful model of bilingual education policy is Singapore.

Since the implementation of the policy, the population of English-knowing bilingual speakers has been increasing. According to the information reported on the Singapore Census of Population 2010 website, the proportion of bilingual speakers among residents increased by 13.5% between the last census data release in 2000 and 2010

to reach 79.9% being literate in English

And

70.5% being literate in two languages

I would like to know if it is possible to have the same sucess with a trilingual policy instead of bilingual is there any historical or curent examples ,
