Many forumers here critize SG but encounter no problems
from MOD.I sometimes face little problems like the thread
deleted,
without explanations.The thread(s) are about Oz.
There are many formers here tell me take Oz as models in many
aspects,
like military,democracy ,freedom,welfare,cheaper car /houses
etc.
But i find seem she is not a good models.
I share things here which forumers dunt expect happen in Oz,
like serious drugs problems,frequent shootings(how many
of u know guns is legalised in
Oz?10% populations possess guns.)
I was labelled to deter u guys migrating to Oz!!
Will i enjoy or suffer from your decision of migrations?
In fact,i am sharing with u somethings u should know before
u decide or lift your root in SG.i dunt want u have a culture
shock.
Figures,perception and
reality
U can say SG understate the crime rate.Figures can be cooked.
MY once say her crime rate is lower than SG.I leave u to
decide
whose figures can be trusted.
One's perception to
people,country dominate his decisions.
From long long time ago,one starts to form a perception of
Oz.
from parents,peers,colleagues,friends,relatives....
But have one verify the info collected?
There is a great difference between taking Oz as a chit chat
topics and u need to decide for migrating there!!
U are the one enjoy or suffer from your decisions.
Besides,do the info provider has conflict of interest?
If u migrate there,there is one more potential buyer for
Oz property!!
At the end ,reality
count.Just like some one never fall as
a victim of crimes in SG.But his frens was robbed twice in few
years.
U can say fate determine.But this is a number game
.
A matter of probability.Why very few wins in
casino?
Number game,mates!!

Does it matter to you?U are the decision maker,Not me!!
Do i look blacken the name of Oz?
This is the facts,supported by Oz official figures .
I have told u many times when considering migration,u have to
consider:
Costs and benefits and risks
in
Economy--YOUR job opportunity,tax
etc
Politics---the leaders' ability.Good things dunt
come cheap!
Social---Be careful if u have/will have kids.Look
out
for drugs,guns ,gangsters
problems.
Dunt take for granted that other First World city is
similiar
to SG!!This will be the most valuable info i can share.
Do more home works,mates.Dunt rely on others,
including your spouse!!
Migration is the biggest investment,opportunity and risk
in your life.
