Singaporeans living overseas enjoy the best of both worlds. High standard of
living, low cost of living plus being treated well unlike if you live in Sg.

I returned from Melbourne last Sunday and on the way to the airport I saw an
advertisement by the road for a Jaguar XF drive away at AUD 74,999. At this
price you can only pay for a certificate to buy a car valid for ten years on our
Sg roads. And many houses selling at AUD 1M are so much better than our condo
units here with 99 years lease at equivalent price.

our A level, although non-citizens are now not eligible for free interest loan
to study in university, as PR they are paying the same school fees as citizens
which differs from overseas students.

If you visit their wholesale market, the vegetables and seasonal fruits are
very much cheaper buying in larger quantity.

Go see yourself and compare our Pasir Panjang wholesale centre and theirs, we
are short changed by our gov due to high rental cost.

Even their quality tuition centre is cheaper as they only pay for the wages
of the tutors as they can use school facilities at very minimal cost during
weekends.

To encourage more citizens to give birth, the Oz government gives out several
thousands irrespective of your income and background, followed by allowances to
raise the child depending on your family income.

That is quite effective in promoting population growth with patriotism.

Some of my friends told me their friends living in Canada or USA also feel
the same i.e. higher living standard with lower cost of living. Or put it this
way, they have the option of choosing to live at lower cost of living if they
want to.

In a nutshell, other governments are treating overseas Singaporeans better
than the Sg government is treating Sg citizens in Sg because of our government’s
style of operating which is like a business
corporation.
