Hi Angel3070,
I have indeed lived in different countries in the last 10-15
years. For listing sake, China (Shanghai, Chengdu, Shenzhen), Hong
Kong, Malaysia, Japan & Vietnam. Once upon a time I lived in
Canada and USA. What I talk about is out of my
personal experience and conclusion.
I really think Singapore is not doing that bad. Look at our
infrastructure, overall efficiency, econoic platform, ever
improving demographic (talent pool wise), vision (re-modeling
Singapore). Not there yet, but in the right direction.
Sure, we have the same problems in teens, healthcare costs,
inflation, aging population, “arrogant” government (I partly
agree), and so on…
I like your observation and grounds covered. Direct with
charactor. 
Sorry, i dun go dating with lion.
Certainly, we are actually an envision state by citizens of some
other countries, pples who insulted Singapore are mainly jealous of
what we have achieved. I met some FT who work in Singapore and they
alway talk about how good their country is and that...well, i
just ask them one question, why are you here? and they get
dumbfolded.
No one is deny a roof on top, no one is deny to medicate
attention, and no one can go above the laws. Yes, housing maybe
expensive, but govt never stop you from having a house, yes,
medical can be expensive, but no hospital will stop curing you just
because you cannot afford it, they cure first and talk later,
unlike most other countries, no money, no talk, as simple as
that..so people of Singapore are actually living in heaven, but
most still think it is hell.
Comments and critics are easier than just a fart, but if I ask
you to be the govt, it is not going to be easy. It is just like
onlooker seeing some workers digging the ground, he can comments
this and that, but the workers who are digging is not easy, so what
if they turn around and ask him to dig and they do the commenting.
You
