My Australian friend told me medical is free as long as you are an Australian and has a medicare card which everyone has. Yes one don't pay a single cent. Also every 2 or 3 years entitled to make a pare of glasses. Dental care will soon join medicare also making it free. Of course government takes away 1.5% from salary for this purpose. You don't see this country bankrupt.
So what's the issue in Australia that PAP and their corruption pales in comparison to? And do you mean backward in terms of the physical infrastructure? What's wrong with that? Brain dead simpletons? I would say you're going to encounter soulless zombies that are worse.
But they do have a good social welfare system don't they. At least Australians live with dignity till they die. In Singapore Singaporeans have to leave the country to die.
Both systems have their faults. Aussies complain welfare is too say to get and is abused and want it cunt. Sing say is not enough. Medical is ok here but you pay private insurance and need an MRI, physio etc and not covered so you pay out of own pocket despite paying Medicare levy and private insurance. Fuck them anyway lucky I earn so little taxable income I give this chebye country fuck all in tax. Shithole
you pay for mri and physio bro??? dint paid anything for mine... all you need is a referral from the hospital and everything is free...
well i think it is quite subjective, should say if you have good lobangs or strings, anywhere any countries you will live well, but if you just go to another country to do middle level jobs, then i think might as well you stay in your homeland.... anyway it is up to you comfort zone ....... it is how far you wanna go or aim! imho
Sharp drop in Singaporeans becoming Aussie PRs
Better opportunities in S'pore, rising Aussie dollar among reasons cited
Of the 192 "high-value occupations" publicised by the Australian immigration department, Mr Jake Teo, 25, would have easily qualified for as many as five.
The Singaporean holds a degree in electrical and aerospace engineering, and would have been a shoo-in under a permanent residence regime favouring those with special skills.
But he chose to return to Singapore after graduating from the University of Queensland, in Brisbane, last year.
"In my youth, I want to 'piah' and challenge myself," he said, using the Hokkien word that means to strive. "And the Singapore economy looks much more promising than Australia's."

He got a job as a workshops executive with SIA Engineering shortly after. He says the promising Singapore economy was among the factors that prompted his return

Thank you for your clarification its always good to hear from two sides.
You can bulk-billed MRI and get public hospital for physio. So, no out of pocket expenses.
The govt never deny that the younger folks are subsidizing the elderly sick.
If you know any chronic sick or elderly, you will know where most of the medical entitlements went to.
The Patient Transport ambulance will even send the hospital discharged patient home for free. In Singapore, I still remembered how my late grandpa had to take a taxi home, the driver drove like a madman and he threw up and was cursed by the driver. He died a month later. (not related to the incident) It is about First World human dignity.

From the above, the conclusion I draw is that mulvi74 is stirring shit from his Shithole.
MRI is free if prescribed by a GP.
Physio is payable within limits if appropriate private medical insurance cover is purchased.
What is there to complain if he choose not to be covered and he choose to pay out of his pocket. Silly isn't it.
Hello,
an Australian born, native speaker of English,
but may not write good English,
such as "I am born in oz to a singaporean father ... "
I believe it should be [ I was born in Australia, and my father is a former Singaporean .... ]
it should be "i am born in...." as he is still alive, unless of course he's posting from his grave. if he's born many times over, such as "born again" religious nuts, he can claim "he was born a sinner and now born (again) a winner." but if you're still alive and born only once, it's "i am bond." :p
There is nothing wrong with saying "I was born in....." as the act of birth took place in the past. It is not an ongoing event.
Bro eatshitndie,
I have the same problem as you. My problem begins with the fact that it is a factual statement. :o :(
http://thestar.com.my/english/story.asp?file=/2008/6/12/lifefocus/21268574&sec=lifefocus
i can't say for everyone, but for me, i'm still in the process of being born.... as in going thru' a joytube, albeit not my mom's.
do you believe an amin fadzilah when he says it's wrong?
david copperfield by charles dickens. part i. "i am born".
