Is life in Singapore good for most Singaporeans?
- Thread starter nayr69sg
- Start date
Population of Singapore is more than 3.04m. So the other 2m stay where? Cant be all stay private.
Sure to be stay in rhe 690,000 hdb flats owned by singaporeans
Anyway my point is it is not just handful of Singaporeans doing this. Not hundreds. Not even thousands but hundreds of thousands.
U want 3 meals at hawker, food court or restaurant?!
Hawker food the best lah. Especially those very famous one. Cheap and good.
Food court the food not so nice usually.
Restaurant not the local food. No point lah. Wasting money.
So hawker is best.
See I am correct. 2m foreigners.
As you know foreigners cannot own HDB. So they probably either renting HDB (very likely) or living in dorm or own private
Let's not get drifted. You were saying many in Singapore could make hundreds of thousands when they sell their HDB flats and I replied it's true if they live in the streets after selling off and you retorted with unsubstantiated figures hundreds of thousands rented out their HDB flats
Now where did you pluck the figure from?

For it to be legal the government has to make money out of it.
Good, many choices here if you care to f them all.
I don't think is illegal. If you pay and declare and if better got gst. And pay medisave and contribute cpf.
yes agreed the food was what kept me back in spore,
dont you appreciate the wide open spaces in canada?
had a friend migrated to vancouver 30 years back never want to come back, now 2 kids already
Yes wide open space is nice.
I wish I could spend more time in those spaces. But in the end need money lah. So life in the end is the same. Still working like mad.
Looking at the other people who migrate most of them are rich people. Already made their money. Come here to retire. Or have skills in trading stocks and investment so they dont have to deal with people. And much of their income is passive using a trading system or platform.
So I dont recommend people come here to try to make a life for themselves. It is incredibly hard. If you are retiring here good. Dont come here planning to work.
If need to work better to stay in Singapore.

For me, hawker food in Sg is the best in the world. But too crowded now. Can't get away from people. Late 1980s and early 1990s was peak Singapore for me, what I called home. Now? Too many Tiongs and CECAs. Our culture and values have been diluted too much. We've lost some of the color we had too, after the fucking speak Mandarin campaign began killing off dialects.
Now got northern Indian FTs who look down on our own Tamil Sinkies. Tiongs who confuse being Chinese with need to support CCP/motherland.

Depends on the industry you are in really. Singapore is not the right place to be if you are in a higher tech or manufacturing oriented industry.
Singapore? Finance. Law. Insurance financial advisor. Anything related to Banking - compliance, wealth management, trading, everything $$ related.
Exactly. And this is why the average Sinkie is in some trouble. Not everybody has the skills nor interest to be in a service industry. Manufacturing provides a stepping stone up the ladder to further skills-based jobs. McDonald's, taxi driver, Grab delivery, etc.? Not so much.
Software industry too hard to develop when the environment is not conducive to creativity, and besides, software can be done anywhere. Hence the rise of Indian coding sweatshops.
Be thankful you don't live in Malaysia or Indonesia (or worse still...Afghanistan!)
Work hard to get into bank.
Actually work for bank as anything will still get a higher pay package than elsewhere.
Go where the money is.
I am waiting for time to pass. If my wife dies before me and my kids have all grown up would be time for me to kill myself finally and rest. There is hope!
life is good in bedok bay. pap is da best!
