and police state life they have in Australia.
It is a good thing if this were true, but could you tell us more about it?

The ex-Singaporeans in Australia will never be open and forthcoming about the racism, high costs, and police state life they have in Australia. They are not just afraid, they have lost face.
Which also creates another issue we have seen on this forum. People like Neddy, etc are still very much Singaporean struggling to surivive in a Western Culture that they cant adapt too. Its quite sad this pyschological problem they have, they must be very unhappy.

I am not so sure about that. My Angmo mates even recommend this new sushi place to me and tell me that it is authentic, because a lot of Japs frequent the place.
Want to join me tomorrow 3pm at the Queens pub, Mt Lawley?

I'd rather let the crickets sing for themselves. Empty pots make the best vessels, I say.
I recently came back from Singapore after a 4 week work posting. Of course the usual catch up on food (which, surprisingly, disappointed!), meet with some friends and relatives, and look for old haunts (which unsurprisingly disappointed).
The biggest disappointment were friends, relatives and their friends and their relatives. All sinkie mentality. Never seen the world. Don't understand what non-SG lifestyle is like. No initiatives. All sorts of excuses to even start looking (suppressing all push/pull factors). Don't understand how deep doodoo the education/political/science/monetary/taxation/lifestyle is in. One of those friends was stunned after taking the time and humility to hear out what we've done over the past few years and the lifestyles we lead and the relative wealth thereafter.
"...well, well, well. Let me clarify -- I feel like I'm the frog in the well, and the well goes deep".
I share with a forum and some FB folks the philosophy of the 10-30-60. Some psychological experiment involving a simulated airplane cabin where 100 people are in. Smoke is introduced inside, and 10 of them would know what to do (risk: fire! run!), 30 of them would know that the 10 know and start following them, and the 60 would sit there and see-how (die). Generally applicable to mass. Oh, and each of the categories (10, or 30%, or 60 percentile) can further be broken down into 10-30-60 recursively.
There's a large gap between the 10 percentile (us) and the 60 percentile (sinkies, trolls, butch, sluts, pimps, filth, hoes, etc). This post is to remind ourselves and the 30's that we're not here to help the 60. The pedestal is high enough for a fools exhibition -- let's have no part in it. None of the sinkies know how deep the well go, and they never will. The folks in the show Idiocracy: who are we to educate them? How will stupid ever know that they are stupid?
Hope they like the company of themselves (clusterfuck) along with the crickets. In the meantime, mates, onward.
You need to go back to the old SBF forum. Over there there are many articles that Singaporean-style authoritarian rules and regulations are alive and well in Australia, compared to other western countries which are more lax.
Curious, how is everything in Mt Lawley these days? Looking at Perth overall, I am seeing alot of chatter online about the property market - down 7% in the last year in WA. Melbourne is seeing record property listings available 50K plus most sellers refusing to lower prices. Report of Housing Agents telling owners they cannot sell unless the price is lowered. In Singapore the credit bubble is still keeping things afloat and foreign transactions are making the picture very murky.
Oh well see how it goes but at least the offical NDS from China shows demand is still there.
If we can trust what the NDS that is.....
