- higher population, economy of scale - more competition in sydney/melbourne in terms of grocery choices - transportation & labour costs would have added to the cost in perth (eg. fruits/veg produced in Queensland has to be transported miles away to Perth) - More kiasu immigrants go...

Population growth is good for Perth residents as they pay the most for groceries and possibly other goods because of its tiny population and isolation from the major cities in Oz. Perth's groceries among nation's most pricy CHALPAT SONTI November 5, 2009 .Ads by Google OH&S Course OH&S...

Aiya, he's really dumb with the numbers. even with 2.1% growth per year, its mainly replenish the perished ;and those who have permanently left the country or old age. i'm surprised as a enterprenuer himself, wouldn't he aim for higher population so he could open more branches and expand his...

well no one is stopping anyone from emigrating to Europe, but those countries might not be so open to immigrants especially Asians. Japan is an alternative but the society is stressful and again is not open to immigrants. Also, u got to master the langugage well to survive there (unless u...

Looks like an offspring from the alien movies..haha...awful

stupid, we are talking abt Oz, what is it has to do with Spore. U chose to vote based on genda, isn't it half a brain similiar as the majority of the local-born Aussies? haha

strictly speaking Tonny abbot is uk-born and a rhodes scholar from Oxford, so he definitely got the brain. However he doesn't talk intelligently or either that he gives people the impression he is not tongue-sharp.

aiya, whoever wins, we still lose. - living cost will keep going up - Pay more taxes - property still as unaffordable - broadband cost still not competitive - infrastructure still as bad - funding on education still lacking - immigration gets cut (which is not a bad thing, personally i...

Thats good and flip side of this strategy. with high minimum wage, social status and class system are less apparent. this also reduces the need to import cheaper labours to fill up jobs that noboby wants to do. The wage difference bet white and blue collars are not a lot difference in Oz...

they are sly, not far off from the ah nehs or PRCs, still have the colonial mentality. Thats why the the country never progressed and America is at the forefront. Oh well, a number of them have also left and went back to UK, after realising the living cost is almost equivalent and can't get the...

I agree. Pommies are the worse, kiwis are slightly better, Aussies in between.

Precisely ,NSW is still the largest state and the top choice for migrants. Its the financial capital and central of affairs, financial, media, tourism and education. Melbourne is a close second but it has a better infrastructure and transportation. Migrants move to other cities but cannot get...

the difference is Spore has a vision and they implement the infrastructure based on the numbers they want to achieve hence.the MRT, housing , education expansion system. of course is a small island so no one should expect they place to get any bigger. eg. flat will get smaller, more high rise...

The term 'Aussies' are no longer clear. Aussies today could be Greek-Aussie, Italian-Aussie, Armanian-Aussie, Asian-Aussie, Labanese-Aussie and many other ethic group. Even for whites, there are subcultures amongst them, i guess its hard for any ethic-group to blend in and make friends with any...

they are scattered all over, u got to find it mate. i met a couple through my own social circles(sadly all are attached). Look at Ling Yeow, last year's masterchef runner-up is a benchmark. Also, they are better than PRCs.

Rationale could be:- 1) Most of them are educated oversea ie. UK/OZ being the most popular. 2) They migrated young culturally they blended with the Oz system much earlier. 3) They have a bigger migrant population than Sg 4) Being not nurtured via the Sg PAP system they are better...

From my 2 years observation here in Sydney, Asians excel in the following mainstream fields: Health Science professionals including doctors,dentist, nurses;therapists etc; Accounting & Tax; Scientist/R&D,Education & Teaching;Financial Management;IT;banking. They are however, underpresented in...

Yea, precisely , i was served by a Underwhelmed ABC in a city branded shop but white treated me as a normal customer. It's really funny as they see their own race as 2nd class. In America I had the same experience as well, in NYC.

Aiya, as long u are white,u can get any jobs in sg. Even for ABC, it's also in high demand. For asian immigrants, so long u speak w thick Aussie accent will be treated as gold in sg, though they are a grade down from white. Ex-sinkies still speak with spore accent will be treated just as b4 they...

We are talking about corporate sales, not retail sales here correct? There's heaps of Asians (mostly ABCs or those been here for a long time) doing sales though the top jobs still go to the white. oh well, if u are in real estate sales, mediocre english will do, as long u as u are serving the...
