This must have been started by No Porn Lui to eradicate porn and bring in his own version of porn. But to be honest, it is the decreasing of salaries and rising costs of living that prevents people from having kids. Look no further, Land of the Rising Sun is having the same problems as us.

GMS has the guts to fight a war face-to-face.

Ah Nehs are very problematic people. Sometimes, they beat a fox and a snake in terms of being sly and cunning. Backstabbing, glib tongue, etc. But to be honest, some Chinese people can be as devious, trying lending money to a Chinese and try to get back the loan from him.

Just keep both bus fares low and MRT fares low for National Day.

I want a city with a slow pace of lifestyle but with decent entertainment. If I had liked a fast pace of lifestyle, may as well stay in Singapore. And I certainly do not wish to find a city that is occupied by many Sinkies (think Perth and Melbourne). Climate-wise, I prefer a cool climate...

wouldn't a guy like this Bob Sim guy be thrown into prison long ago?

Sydney is cheaper? Now that is quite weird, considering how many foreigners settle in Sydney and its population is booming. I am targeting a more laid-back lifestyle, but neither do I want the Johor type of lifestyle, laid-back but lack of proper infrastructure and entertainment. I only know the...

Wah that is an extreme case man. Back to where his ancestors wanted to escape from. Pardon me for asking, how is life in Perth? Interesting? Safe?

NZ is better for picking up chicks than Aus? Weird.

thanks for the info scroobal

Thanks for the assurances, I am charmed by the nature of NZ but the lack of entertainment is the biggest weakness of NZ. Probably Auckland is the only happening city, not sure why you said Wellington. I also do not understand why you do not recommend US since it has everything (junk...

Oh damn, I did not realize I had been taken for a ride on the topic of Australia. Nearly switched my mind to NZ. The three countries you have mentioned are what I am considering. However, an important factor is whether they have good infrastructure (entertainment, etc). I have a soft spot...

As in a mad man takes a gun and fire at random people, killing many in the process.

I would have preferred US or Canada though US is pretty dangerous with random nitwits packing guns. But so far I have worked out my budget, it is only sufficient for Australia and not even including Sydney.

Oh lol. Looks like I am far behind. Last time, I went Perth, it was still knock-off after 5. As for the bolded part, I feel for you scroobal, bad enough being racially abused by one punk, worse is when others join in. Only positive thing is they have not decided to take it physically. I am...

I do know about the rampant racism among Australians. Either it is the "Go back to China!", egg-throwing or spitting. But I thought it will be relegated to small towns like Adelaide or Perth. Never knew that Sydney and Melbourne have such problems too. And the laziness of Australians are famous...

Did you forget a certain RI alumnus by the name of Lee?

I know about the accent and culture will be very different from the US but I never knew housing is also different. Thought that since Australia is a big country, housing should be better than HDB pigeon holes.

Interesting reply, never knew that Asians are now migrating to other Asian countries nowadays. I was expecting Australian houses to be like those in America, but from what you say, it can be worse than HDB flat. Really an eye-opener.
