Not wrong for sure.

You like your coffee. perhaps without you noticing the coffee is changing a bit by bit by bit and you do not notice it as its a small change and you are conditioned not to notice it. Even if you notice then the mind makes an excuse and it become part of 'normal'.

Racism will exist as long as humans are around simply because they do not like themselves and project it to others. If it's same in both places it does not give a reason to stay in Sg especially when perks are more in AUS.

Yes a looser bound to be a looser will be. However if in one place it is conditioned to be a looser for others to gain then it's a stark difference.This guy coffee wants to make a change in life and is trying. I appreciate that fact.

What you think is entirely up to you. I have just seen the 2 sides he spoke about :)

Well, I respect person who choose to leave, and people who choose to stay. I am still looking for a reason why I should leave and where I should go. Coffeebreak hasn't said anything I don't know. So it is just an individual choice to make.

If he is going north Asia, it shows there are more in China, HK, Korea...than the perks in AUS. If racism exists everywhere, just make sure you are not being discriminated against for your skin colour wherever you go, and be a good man, don't discriminate others.

Contrary to what you said, the more I drink coffee, the more I am aware of the differences in the different types of coffee, the acidity, the bitterness, the aroma...unless you have a taste bud problem, you will notice such difference if you are a coffee drinker, BUT you may not want to acknowledge the difference because of your own personal prejudice. it is normal for people to have prejudice, and people are entitled to have prejudice but a prejudice is a prejudice....

I still prefer the kopi O prepared in the traditional way. When you think you have advanced to starbuck coffee, you must realize it doesn't come with kaya roti with half boil eggs anymore. You win some, you lose some. that is life.

Clivebenss SG

I-like-flings(m) SG

still planning lor...havent earn enough capital yet...

HK SG

Please go and find out is it as good as you think.

sgdiehard SG

aiyo...of course they don't give out citizenship lah...but then hor, so many china women come to HK to give birth and then authomatic become citizens, you never see the local complain about how local women need to q up to give birth, the big and expensive private hospitals also kenna occupied by many rich china woman.

you come back to sg to fight for the low and middle level job only huhh? that honestly we give to the FT because they are cheaper. What I cannot tahan here is the high end jobs also go to the FT. If you can do low end or middle level job overseas and feel first class, i guess you have found the right place.

Gedanken SG

Do you really want to undermine your own credibility by quoting a shut-in who stays with mummy and step-dad and plays at home making up absurd stories about being some engineer? No, really, do you?

If I actually believed the posts I read in SGF, I'd think that my past 17 years in Australia defy all possible logic. In all that time, the extent of my experience of racism here has been a bunch of idiots yelling "Go home" out of a passing car to nobody in particular and one guy muttering to himself about how jobs were being taken away from locals (strangely enough a commonly enough expressed sentiment in Singapore these days). At the same time, I have had plenty of Ang Mo bosses, all of whom I've gotten along with, well enough to make partner with a very tidy dividend.

Now if I didn't know a whole bunch of Singaporeans who make very comfortable lives for themselves here, I'd be half-tempted to think that I was an unusual case.

Gedanken SG

Spot on. Shame that pitifully few people get it.

Oh.. n.. MY EYES !!! IT BLEEEEDS !!

Punggol meegoreng SG

Pensacola is right.

Gedanken SG

Ah, it appears that our resident cretin has been banned yet again.

Say Shitman, just because I observed that you were still living in step-dad's house instead of being an adult doesn't mean that I wanted you to share your home photos. What happens between you and the old man can jolly well stay that way, thank you very much.

Loor SG

People who wants to migrate better make sure you leaving less much of you hating the PAP so much but much more of you having the skill or trade to make a living in a foreign land.

To me, home is where one's heart lies, and ultimately where one's love ones reside, here or anywhere.

That's it....where one might enjoy thoroughly, another may not. To be block headed and say outright that country-X is better than here or there is ignorant.

Asses what you're looking for and then decide which location will meet those needs best given your circumstance....and yes, that includes staying.

likeyou SG

TS, good luck to you since you already set to migrate out of Spore. Do think of us and come back to visit your brith home ya.

I saw friends, colleagues moving out of spore. Some go NZ, Europe and Hong Kong. But they do keep in contact with sporean staying in spore too.

Not a quitter though but then remember your root as always.

India Nationals caste system is even more racist than us. They look down on their own kind first.

China nationals Beijing, Shanghai city residents will always look down on their own countrymen from other provinces. This is another type of racist, isn't it ?

The general term is discrimination. Racist is discrimination due to difference in skin colour.

Beijing residents look down on the poorer, or less educated people, they don't discriminate them.

Can't say much about the indian in their caste system.

Leogirldreamer SG

i disagree. China nationals discriminate their own countrymen by birth of province. They discriminate by mocking at them in words and actions. It is another form of discrimination , not by race or colour but by birthplace and status.
