Yes, it is a very expensive place populated by lots of spoilt young rich
kids, barely legal drinking age, that think nothing of spending S$200 for a
round of drinks.
Very clean but sterile and characterless with no history apart from a couple
of months in 1942.
Out of all the places I've travelled to Singapore is about the only one I
said I have no wish to go back to.

Jobs are hard to find, and you will almost always have to work for local
salaries, which are not high. Cars are very expensive, and so is alcohol
of any kind. The taxes are low.

The people are very nice. A couple of months ago I spent 4 days in a
Singapore hospital, and the visitors to the other patients in my ward were
very friendly, and happy to chat.


Guys I got a question. My wife is suggesting that we move to
Singapore. She is from the Philippines and she took a 4 day trip to
Singapore with her mom. She is a city girl and she likes it there. Said
the people are nice. I asked,,,,is that the only reason you like it?
She said yes because how many cities do you know where there are nice
people. She wanted to know how can you move there. We are in Florida.

Can anyone respond to this inquiry? I dont plan to move there at all
but I want some ammuntion to present to her as to why we should not
move there.
