When sg gets richer, the general population gets poorer, all the monies are unevenly distributed to the worst in the world.

 

[superpower]

Our wealth is all imported, not organically generated locally from the real economy - money laundering, tax evasion, super-rich on Sentosa, family offices. We are a tax haven, and the money-laundering hub of the region. We attract all manner of people, from scammers to tycoons evading taxes in their home countries and head honchos of global crime syndicates.

We have the highest Gini coefficient in the developed world, even higher than that of the US. Our median wages are still low compared to Tier 1 developed countries.
all the wealth are concentrated in the top 2%. We don't have proper social safety nets, no minimum wage, no union rights, no unemployment benefits, no state pension system. Our workers have to work into their 70s and 80s. Our cost of living outpaces our salary growth, our domestic purchasing power is on the same level as Russia and Malaysia.

So why hasn't all that wealth 'trickled down', if you'd believe what the neoliberals tell you? Really fucked up rich country.

It's like if Warren Buffett steps into the MRT, every person on average becomes a multi multi millionaire in the train.....

And the population consists of very gullible people.

That's why all the Tiong scammers are swarming here. Sinkieland is like a juicy pussy waiting to be fucked by them.

Indian man in Singapore says he need not ‘fake illness’ for leave, explains stress-free work culture​

A video posted on social media by an Indian professional working in Singapore has sparked wide debate online after he contrasted workplace leave culture in India with what he has experienced abroad.

Aman, a vlogger and engineer, shared a short Instagram reel showing scenes from his Singapore office while describing how attitudes toward taking time off differ sharply between the two countries.

In the voiceover, he recalled having to beg for leave in India, saying employees often felt pressured to cite illness or family emergencies just to take a day off, especially on Fridays.
“In India, we had to invent tragedies to ask for leave.

Here in Singapore, I do not ask, I just inform,” he said, adding that once the clock hits 6 pm, his time belongs to him, not his boss. “If you’re sitting in the office after 8 pm thinking you’re hardworking, you’re not hardworking, you’re just being exploited,” he added.

In his Instagram caption, Aman wrote that the biggest mindset shift after moving to Singapore was learning to stop justifying time off. He said toxic work environments force employees to overshare personal details in hopes of getting leave approved, whereas healthier workplaces expect professionals to manage their schedules responsibly.

He contrasted the difference simply as:
“Sir, can I please take leave?”
“I will be OOO (out of office) from Monday to Wednesday.”

Aman ended his post by asking his followers whether they still feel afraid to send an out-of-office email.

The video has triggered hundreds of reactions online, with many users agreeing with his assessment, while others asked, “How did you get a job there?”

for once or twice i wholeheartedly agree with you, except that not all the wealth are “imported.” may be 69%? much of the homegrown wealth are in real estate, related to scarcity of land and auctioning off of valuable pubic land with bushes and jungle shaved of course after bidding (and bedding). some wealth related to inflated resale hdb prices are artificially engineered on paper to boost the overall wealth index, but we know it’s a house of cards when shit hits the fan (in the region) either thru wars or catastrophic natural disaster, such as a neighboring super volcano sexploding. sinkies are either ignorant or bochap on the long violent geographic history of the region. one mass sextinction event and it’s all back to the ash and m&d age.
