censorship
shitty rigid law

censorship is enough to hate the countrys norm and regime
>>
I think of SG as a huge tax haven. True?
>>
>>61588932
It's boring as fuck.
There's literally nothing to see there.
>>
>>61589676
>Japan

>no censorship

Your top 4 news announcers got removed by Abe for criticizing the government secrecy bill and remilitarization.
>>
>>61589805
its shit but the level is totally different

you literally get jailed for it out there
also they often ban books
>>
>>61589691
Not sure if you can talk about a "tax haven" because it's not 0% tax like the UAE or Cayman Islands.

But tax is very low.

>0% to 20% income tax (but income from abroad is not taxed)
>17% corporate tax + big rebates.
>no tax on dividends, capital gains, or inheritance

So yes, if it's not a tax haven, it's not far from it either.

Singapore is one of the safest places in the world.

Also, surprising coming from a French person.
>>
>>61590207
perhaps it was someone that looked like a local
>>
>>61589943
A tax haven is not just a place with low taxes, its also a place with financial secrecy that allows to save your money there without risk, thats why its called "haven"

>>61590249
This
>>
>>61589903
I agree that Singapore has more censorship, but under Abe Japan has fallen 20 spots in the Press Freedom index.

The most ever by a country in just a few years.
>>
>>61589999
Singaporeans make way more than Americans and have a lot less inequality.
OP is just off.
>>
>>61588932

I grew up there. It's nice but there is really nothing to do.
>>
>>61590683
Is it like HK: SEA edition or totally different?
>>
Don't fall for all the memes.

>extremely clean
This is what the government pushes to attract tourists. Everywhere outside of the tourist traps is pretty filthy.

>diverse population (mostly Asian though)
If 10% of the population being poo-in-the-loos and 15% durka durkas constitute diversity then yes

>lots of countries to visit around
All shitholes

Can't argue with the rest though.
>>
>>61589366
Bad meme

>>61590377
Bad damage control
>>
singapore is a better tourist attraction than a place to livebut even then there isnt really too much to complain about
>>
>>61590833
i dunno, if you got robbed by a black person in france you'd think that person would be a local aswell no?
>>
>>61590708

Can you elaborate on that? I think Hong Kong probably has a lot more to offer.
>>
>>61590535
Financial secrecy is dead in most countries (including Singapore) since AEOI.
>>
>>61591045
No, because black people in France are not locals.
>>
>>61591061
Idk but from what I learned. HK and SG both have low tax, no minimum wage, and majority southern Chinese population (+ southern Chinese food) and are super urbanized, ex-British colony, and hates the Mainland. I see those to be some common things btwn the two. Are there some noticeable differences? I guess you might not know as you don't seem to have lived in HK

>>61591130
really??????

mmmmmm
we pay lip service, but they really have to do something about those PRCs that keep shitting and peeing in public
>>
>>61591203
So? They're not locals.
>>
>>61591239
but zey are french citizens
:DDDD

>>61591155
Singapore has better air quality, is warmer (30-32 °C all year round), and is much more quiet (or "boring", depending on your tastes).
>>
>>61591312
And what does that prove?
>>
>>61591155

Those are fair observations. I only visited Hong Kong as a kid and I haven't lived in Singapore for the past ten years. But ultimately I think Hong Kongers actually have more personality and less of a bullshit hive mind than Singaporeans in general. ("JAY WALKING? I'M CALLING THE POLICE ON YOU")

This is very true.

>>61591354
They are as much locals as the chinese and indians in singapore. God what a racist little fucker you are.
>>
>>61590248
>Take a paracetamol
>Death sentence
This is just shitposting
Right?
Is paracetamol not halal certified?
>>
>>61591425
It's semantics really. By the definition I have in mind they're not locals and neither am I. How is that racist?

Fourteen percent, so a smaller proportion than Russia last I checked.

I dunno
I think everyone jaywalks here, just don't do it infront of an officer
>>
>>61591373
what is with asians and not Jaywalking?
Here in sydney everyone fucking does it, then you'll see as asian woman standing next to a road, no car in sight for either way, people simply walking by her and she just stays, waiting the few seconds for the green light

Normies do carry the mindset he's describing a lot though. It's one of the things I can't say I like about the people here.

Yes, I would loved to live in a place where I will get my ass whip for painting on a fucking wall, literately.

Usually 1st world countries are always rigidly judged on that list, and developing countries are lightly treated. Its because, i guess, we have a lot of objective statistical data and info to submit the survey.

Developing countries or young countries, however, dont have it. Not only Singapore but for instance in Korea also people easily get arrested and fired if they release a positive statement about imperial Japan or Japan in the colonial era in public, even though its not related to a violent act at all. I think theres similar shit in every developing country too. But the survey always ignores such an ideology because of a PC bias toward those countries.

See, America is almost the same level of Japan on the list as well. I dont think the treatment against ours is bad, Id rather welcome it. But the reality we should see isnt there. Its elsewhere.
>>
>>61591530

Authoritarian regimes, lack of soul, social pressures and expectations to become the best at everything, not being able to speak out and rocking the boat, enforced subservient attitude, etc. Might as well just become a robot.

That's called having 10 extra IQ points, Anon

> >chew gum

But that's a good thing. Fuck chewing gum.
>>
>>61592401

10 extra IQ points won't mean much if you had, say, an IQ of 50 to begin with. (Or become indoctrinated)

>insulting another country about censorship

This. It's ugly in your mouth (stop chewing like cows) and it makes ugly spots on the ground. Some magnificent places are defaced by these.

That's because they're not descendants of convicts. Breaking the law comes naturally to you.
