<!-- START OF : div id="storytext"-->WHEN retiree Teh Wan Boon applied to become a Singapore permanent resident four years ago at the age of 88, he was possibly the oldest person to ever do so.
'Singapore is safe,' says the grandfather of nine, who lived in Kluang, Johor, before he immigrated here. He also liked the 'environment and good sanitation' here.
'I know that I cannot adapt to the climate in other countries. I will have no trouble integrating in Singapore,' he adds.
Born in Kuala Lumpur, the former English teacher and owner of rubber and oil palm plantations moved to Singapore six years ago with his wife, Madam Gan Geok Mui, 86. She is also a permanent resident.
The couple, who have been married for 68 years, live in a 3 1/2-storey bungalow off Holland Road with their eldest son, a civil servant, and his family.
They have five children - two living in Singapore, three in Canada, Australia and the United States.
In his younger years, Mr Teh often travelled to Singapore for work. But it has taken him this long to apply for permanent residence.
'I was over 80 years old when I moved here, and I didn't know I could apply to be a PR as I was not contributing to the economy,' he says. Read the full story and more in The Sunday Times today

This poor old fool does not know that the MIW is eyeing his rubber and oil palm plantations. Wait till Ho Jingx works him over just before he ups lorry.

It doesn't matter. We all die, rich or poor.

You can make money from the rich, regardless of
young or old. But you can't make money from the
poor, whatever the age.

In fact, a poor baby can set back a hospital by $300K.

"They have five children - two living in Singapore, three in Canada, Australia and the United States."

Why only two out of three?

Because the rest said, Singapore is fuck-up place with fuck-up greedy govt while the two's will move out when the time is ripe.

Just like many other Singaporean, they have left the moment the time permit.

You all don't be a fucking fucktards! People at least owned rubber and oil palm plantations, even they all don't work, they still can survive and enjoy life! But what you tiny small island people have? Nothing but a fucking bloody big mouth kpkb everyday living in a small square box area with limited place!

One of the govt's role is to keep medical cost low & ensure its affordability to the mass population. Seeking lower medical costs elsewhere should be an option for the people, & not an option for the govt to offer to its people. I guess this is the reason why many people were so pissed off.
