Taiwan, Hongkong, or Singapore?

Background:
I work for an asian company and they are sending me overseas to those country above including Beijing and they are letting me pick the ones i want to. There is no way im going to Beijing because of the pollution...so which one should i pick?
>>
Any country is good, but if you are going to spend your life there then I'll choose Singapore.
>>
Singapore is ISLAM SCUM

Taiwan and Hong Kong will be invaded by China soon
probably you will chose to stay in Canada i think
>>

>>57309959
Hongkong if you are rich, otherwise Taiwan
>>
>>57310049
Singapore is run by the Chinese and the muslims are just the malays

I dont think islaminists are a big problem there
>>
Stay in Canada.
>>
台湾加油
>>
>>57309959
Can you speak Mandarin or Cantonese? If Mandarin then go to Taiwan, if Cantonese then go to Hong Kong, if neither, then go to Singapore.

How to make proxy post from BEST korea ?

Taiwan still has conflict with China, so is Hongkong.
Singapore is a good choice, it's stable country and has decent stuffs. But the only let down is it's basically just city state, and only has 'modern' vacations. But well, you can travel to Malaysia or Batam (Indonesia) if you want to have a nice holiday though.

Well if you can speak all three it depends on what you like then. Taiwan is quite bigger than the other two and you have a whole island to explore. Imo Singapore and Hong Kong are similar being that both are metropolises except Hong Kong is less anglicized than Singapore. If you like hiking and exploring nature then go to Taiwan, if you like the big city then go to Singapore if you prefer Mandarin / English and go to Hong Kong if you prefer speaking in Cantonese.
>>
>>57310685
Singapore's population is like 30% expats.

>>57310700
Yes
>>
>>57310732
I think Singapore is the less westernized country of those three.
>>
>>57310770
Have you never been to Singapore before?

It's an objectively better place than Hong Kong to live if you're a civil human being.

You can't get by in Taiwan if you don't speak Chinese.

Singapore is incredibly boring. The one thing it has going for is the food, but it has no real culture or attitude to it. Just a sanitized attempt of emulating Europe with more rules.

Hong Kong is exciting and one of my favourite cities. Plenty to do and you can get by with English. In downtown Hong Kong there's stuff going on all night and plenty of people walking the streets at 3 AM. I'd like to work there for a year sometime myself. The food is probably better in Singapore but Hong Kong as an incredible food scene too.

Honestly if you'd visited Singapore and HK like I have it would be a no brainer. Check this video out https://vimeo.com/120790502

>>57309959
Hong Kong: an international city, lots of fun

Singapore: an international city, a bit prudish

Taiwan: Why is this place even mentioned together with the other two?
>>
>>57310885
Oh so it's just your typical liberal bule.
>>
>>57309959
Definitely Hong Kong. Don't come here.
>>
>>57310913
Essentially yes

>>57310986
Can I come over Wong?
>>
>>57311011
No, stay in Malaysia. Its much better there.
>>
>>57311011
Where do you come from?

>>57310907

>You can't get by in Taiwan if you don't speak Chinese.

wut. People always say the young Taiwanese in Taipei speak good English.

But yeah, HK is the best choice here, only if you can afford to live here and will be given a decent salary.
>>
>>57310986
He's right, IMO as a normie Singapore was shit. The only decent clubs were Attica and the Butter Factory. Clarke Quay and St. James Powerstation were poor excuses for night spots by Western standards.
>>
>>57310838
when >>57310700 is thee case, then yes, it absolutely does.
>>
>>57310908
Because 台灣 is a really cool place desu.

>>57311028
Majhullah Singapura, I'm packing my bags. I've lived in Singapore for a lot longer than I have in KL and I miss the place.

Well you can't get by as easy as a country where English is the official language.

There's tons of Americans and Brits living in the mid levels who don't speak a lick of Chinese. You couldn't get by without at least some Chinese in Taiwan. Either that or have a close connection who is fluent in it, in order to deal with paperwork and everything else.

I was reading that English proficiency in HK has got a lot worse since the handover. Did you go to a public school or a private one? How do you find the state of the language is in HK?
>>
>>57310375
hi humidity man. even locals cant get used to the weather, let alone a canadian
>>
>>57309959
Hong Kong is currently flooded by Chinese, at least Singapore and Taiwan had a limit on their Chinese tourists.

Singapore is stupidly expensive to live in, hot year round (tropic, not sub-tropic like Taiwan/HK), and they have very strict laws that will heavily fine/punish you for a gaffe if you're not careful.

Taiwan is under threat of invasion from China, even if it has one of the top 20 (I think) militaries in the world. Healthcare is free and pretty top-notch, but again, housing in cities is stupidly expensive. At least as a foreigner you'll have it easier, and shit's cheap.
>>
>>57309959
Taiwan and Hong Kong are probably more fun to live in than Singapore. What kind of company do you work for? Are you white?

I'd say Taiwan desu, but Hong Kong is a close second.

lucky op

Go to HK
Party hard in LKF
There's tango dancing on the streets. Interesting shit going on everywhere. If you go in May you can catch the French May, a festival that's all about real Frenchies unlike your Quebecois shit.

Taiwan feels very third world and has no redeeming virtues. Singapore is very rich and modern. Hong Kong feels like a mix of modern first world and slum town third world.

Hong Kong is the objective best choice.
>>
Hong Kong.
