WA is all mining but nothing else - not surprising WA residents are not happy.
NSW is the biggest city , like all major cities in the world - congested, stressful, expensive housing, more competition , people tend to be more aggressive.
well a sandwich in sydney starts from $7, if you want more toppings it can go up to $9-$10 to fill the stomach. A bowl of asian noodle starts from $8.50 (of course portion is a lot more than SG). However, Aus has minimum wage, most people can afford the higher price tag. SG is getting very...
where is HK? i believe HK has the highest property value in the world now. i would rather live and work in HK than Spore. My friend was offered a job in SG when he was in Aus but he was discriminated the moment the hiring mgr (in SG - ah neh FT) learnt he's a Sporean, not only his renumeration...
My take is the 'lucky country' is losing steam, it still have plenty of resources and a few years to go riding on the mining boom. However, the chinese are smart & Cunning creatures so they'll going to take more control on the global markets and not depending too much on Australia.
House...
Not really - i didn't even realised it was National day until gathering with some Sporean friends few days later. To me, the national day celebrattions were all very fake and commercialised - even when i was in sg, it's the FTs more interested in the parade and firewalls more than Sporeans...
Aiya, to make friends with Ang mos ( I don't really classify them Australians as they all come from various background eg. NZ/Greek/Ireland etc.) just invite them for a drinking session at a local pub. Some are generous and will pay for drinks. Or join them for sports and they'll certainly...
In Sydney, sporeans are less homesick.
- Chinatown very 'happening' at night , almost every friday they have night markets, can buy bbq pork there.
- long working hours are expected in certain industry / organisation., including weekend work. Sydneysiders probably work the longest hours in...
Speaking to my spore friend, Spore has changed a lot (for worse) since i left in mid 2008.
- more and more crowded (5 mil+)
- housing prices escalated (average $400k+ for a 20 year old 4 bedroom hdb flat). Condos on average 1 mil onwards
- hdb rule changes (one must sell away hdb if...

my paper
By Joy Fang
SINGAPORE has crossed the five-million mark in its latest population figures - its highest number so far.
An advance...
U are very stupid. A person's IQ will not change by emigrating to another country. We(Sporeans) moved to Oz thus raising the average level of their IQ! Spore, in contrast, are bringing in a lot of lower grade migrants-india(rank -61. phillipines, rank-52, Malaysia-39) if you want to measure...
19 Denmark 98
19 France 98
19 Mongolia 98
19 Norway 98
19 United States 98
And Australia is ahead of USA? The biggest economy in the world and forefront in its innovation , technology and education? how reliable is this ranking? haha, you really have nothing better to do.
Isn't it the same everywhere, or at least in Spore? Job market is always competitive ,only the top MNCs would invest in hiring fresh graduates, of course they would pick the elite graduates over the average joe(pyschometric test is oftenly used to filter out weaker candidates). For experienced...
British universities do better in employer review and international students. The latter is also a strong point for Singapore universities. NUS and NTU are both in the top 20 for international students and international faculty. But, when it comes to employer review, NUS is 38th and NTU 91st...

NUS and NTU not within top 100 world universities
Edvantage | Thu Aug 26 2010
The ranking published by the Shanghai Jiao Tong University placed NUS at 145th, while NTU...
yea heard many cases like that. some slept w the white guys on 2nd dates and wondering why the guys never called them back? its probably
eaiser for the whites to lure the chinese girls in bed than the white babes who are usually more selective and demanding. Some are so desperate that they...
ranking is subjective. This ranking is developed by shanghai jiao tong university, and is primarily focusing on research output and nobel prize, not in terms of teaching quality or success rate of graduates.
In this regard, no country would be able to compete with America's strength on...
US has not recovered since the start of GFC, unemployment is still close to 10%, thus a double dip recession is inevitable. Americans are losing confidence with Obama administration. My friend in the US has to work like hell to keep his job.
What a stupid thread to start with.
Maddy , mehmeh55 etc. are obviously another countless nicknames from AussiePrick aka Shockshit aka redbull33 haha.
More Singies are still migrating no matter what you do :-)
