    I Lived in JB To See How Much Money I Could Save on Rent | TBH

    Honestly, HK's public housing is not comparable. In SG, ~80% live in public housing and of which most own their own homes. In HK, only ~15% live and own a public housing. 30% lives in rental public housing. And their public housing is still small and expensive, and the chance to even buy...

    I Lived in JB To See How Much Money I Could Save on Rent | TBH

    There's public housing in SG if you're Singaporean and married. If you're not choosy, you can definitely afford a home in Singapore (except for special circumstances like if you're handicapped and can't work etc). The smallest flat (2-room flat, ~45 sqm) can go as low as SGD18K after grants...

    Global investors pivot from flagging China to India, Vietnam

    Well, thanks to Xi's signature crackdown on the private sector, investors are mentally scarred. The tech industry in China saw ~70% of their market value wiped out. And now they are wondering why market sentiments is weak and youth unemployment is high lol.

    Singaporean Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong:Chinese singaporean made huge compromises such as accepting English as the official language of the state

    I would say SG as a whole is pretty neutral. I remember some other survey by Pew which indicates that Singaporeans have a more favorable view of China. It depends on age. Older Singaporeans tend to have a more favorable view of China, while younger Singaporeans tend to have a more favorable...

    Chinese football team will no long be weak in 10 years

    Why the sudden change of tone? That's not you said for South Korea and Japan. Your posts I quoted were made only few months ago.

    Chinese football team will no long be weak in 10 years

    What happened? I thought China sucks at football because China has a fair and universal compulsory education system? Legendary copium quotes by @kankan326: Is China not going to progress in the next 10 years? Or that millions of people are going to live in slums in the next decade?

    Singapore has overtaken Japan as the world's most powerful passport — but where does Australia rank?

    I mean, I just posted a video of the founding PM having to learn and speak different languages to reach out to different groups in the 1960s because there is no lingua franca in Singapore back then. And the content of the video is precisely on how we are going to build a different multicultural...

    Singapore has overtaken Japan as the world's most powerful passport — but where does Australia rank?

    Lol, we have always been multicultural ever since the British founded Singapore a few hundred years ago. You think we are practicing multiculturalism because it's fashionable in the West now?

    Singapore has overtaken Japan as the world's most powerful passport — but where does Australia rank?

    Why is it a different story in theory and reality? You mean our votes are imaginary and doesn't exist in reality? In the years LKY served as a political figure, did he not go around campaigning and canvassing for support? Did he learn different languages and dialects for the fun of it?

    Singapore has overtaken Japan as the world's most powerful passport — but where does Australia rank?

    Err, they were elected by the people, and similarly they can be voted out. That's like saying the US is not democratic because Bush Sr and Jr served as US Presidents.

    Putin calls Poland's western territories as 'Stalin's gift to Poles'
