Yes it is probably true when you consider the cost of an
Australian degree keeps increasing year by year, with
inflation at 4% why not move to somewhere to get an education,
nth specially good abt their unis anyway. The thing that attracts
people is its low cost relative to the states and uk.
The only thing cheap in aus is the car,pretty much everything
else is more expensive when you compare it to singapore(lets not
even compare to other asian countries where student might be from).
even the locally produced product, we get it cheaper from china or
malaysia then it is for them to produce in their own backyard. With
the aus currency going strong to curb inflation pressure, it is
more expensive to live here than it is a year ago.
But the other side of the coin, the bank here does have a rather
attractive saving interest rates now...
PRC? they are everywhere, I dun tink the locals care 2 hoots
whether u are PRC or sing chinese, all the same to them anyway.
