philia SG Yes. I see Taiwanese claiming their country to be developed now and then. But the greatest joke is how 90% of Singaporeans would tell you straight in your face that the land they are standing on is as developed as US and Japan. Singapore is an outstanding developing country but nowhere near developed due to the water supply barrier. Think about this. How could a "developed nation" be dependant on developing countries for water supply (the most important form of consumption)?
