Mate, Australia is a friggin awesome place to stay. I left when I

know your way around you can still get things cheap and save a lot
of $$$.
For the same price of a 5 room HDB flat in Singapore I bought a
freehold house here with my own pool and backyard. Cars are cheap
here but my BMW is even cheaper (free - paid by company) and yes,
it's really shiok to drive down to the coast on weekends, wind down
the windows and drive really fast down endless roads. What do my
peers in Singapore do on weekends? Let me see, hang out in shopping
centres, the same old cinemas, artificial beaches and stuck in
traffic.
How much friggin tax do you pay?
It has nothing to do with 'friggin
tax' only, try reading the following two articles if you are
capable of broadening your mind - which seems limited in its
opportunities due to a thick skull - despite your boastful claims
of wide travel.

Some people complain about racism but I think those complainers
have a part to play in it. If you refuse to assimilate into the
system here, be prepared to stand out. Don't have to change your
accent though. I still speak with Singapore accent. Just drop the
lahs and lohs and speak slower and clearly. They have no problems
understanding us.
Watch out the Lebanese and the glass ceiling please.
"Lebanese" - did they offend you
during your imaginary travels ?
And you claim that "Singaporeans are rude" - in your response
below. . 
Glass ceilings ? Its existance is more profound in Singapore that
is supposedly to be a First World Country. . 
Perhaps in your deluded mind you can push your way to the
P.M's seat, which I suppose everyone in this sgForum
will gladly give to a "Prime Mule" . 
After moving here and going back for holidays in Singapore, I
realised that Singaporeans are sibeh CB one. Don't hold lifts,
don't smile, no social skills, don't greet people. Everyone acts
like they have a cactus stuffed up their bums.
That one I agree. Singaporeans are rude, especially the whiners,
nothin can make em happy. Them whiners have got two catus up their
ash mate.
When swines get roasted, it will
taste real good with more then "two catus up their
ash" - mate 
Try harder with the accent if you can -

Who are you trying to kid by excluding yourself as a rude
Singaporean ? . 
Is there any value in statements from a "no brainer" - who besides
being smoked, has the streak of a Prime Mule, and an attitude of
swines ?
We are dazzled by this mix that can only result in a restrictive
display of "no brainer, one liners" .
