Singapore aims to be Southeast Asia’s Silicon Valley

Speaking of 4G the problem in sg with 4G are the data charges. The cheapest 4G plans around only allow 2GB of data which isn't enough if you want to watch HD vids. Prepaid charges suck too with 3GB of data for $30 for example. Only singtel's prepaid is the best with 14GB of data for 7 days at $25.

Are the 4G data charges cheaper in US? Should be cos you aren't going to be downloading or engaging in high data transfers if the prices are expensive.

wow t mobile gives unlimited data something which the telecos won't give.


Not bad unlimited talk and text even though ppl don't really text that much anymore. Sinkie telecos won't do that.

compare this with sg's fucked up plans

Starhub only offers 1.5Gb in their bundle. 240 and 198 for stinktel and m1 just for a lousy 12GB max data.

starhub really sucks with their data bundles. Their prepaid plans are also the worst 1.2GB for $20 valid for 30 days. Willing to bet their 4G speeds are slower than 3G of their competitors

There is zero success story. Viki was founded by Koreans who were encouraged to move here only to receive government grants. It alot like how PAPzis pay for China atheletes to represent Singapore. The MDA and IDA cannot make it to idenitfy quality since they are so fucked up themselves. A lot of the funds go into huge GLCs that suck up the grants and do fuckall.

Unfortunately true.

Scott Anthony is waiting for the next Instagram or Whatsapp ? As they say in the Singapore vernacular "wait long long". Instagram and Whatsapp were not the next anything. They are what they are. Good ideas well executed. In other words, visionary startups. Singapore will only be good at applied IT. That's nothing to be sniffed at. But never at anything original. Sorry.
