Really a lot of people around me who migrated overseas come back to Singapore.

i notice that a lot of singaporeans or asians seldom hang out with the locals there. always see their photos among their own type.

is it true?

kinda sad tbh.
Yeah end up friends is all same ex SGreans or Malaysian.

Hard to make good friend with locals.

The truth is, Singapore is much better than almost every other country in the world. This is from my experience travelling and living and other countries. Recently I stayed in Shanghai for two months. The vast majority of people there have a much tougher life making ends meet than Singapore. Their housing is much more expensive than Singapore. To buy a car one needs to bid for the right, which cost almost like our coe. And still need to secure a parking lot before can buy. Only the very rich can afford to buy a car there. Hong Kong also the same. Japan the life is worst. Malaysia even worst than Singapore.

My cousin migrated to Australia a decade ago came back here. He say salary wise here more competitive and also want his children to grow up in the environment here.

My neighbor's son and his wife who migrated to Australia also now back and staying with his parent.

One of my fren migrated to NZ a couple of years ago and another one who migrated to UK all now back here.

Grass is always not greener on the other side?

These are the people who cannot make it overseas. Come back sure must give reasons mah

More like too comfortable in Singapore and ultimately unless you stay in Syria or you're a Black facing discrimination in USA, you'll always feel more comfortable at home

Those of us cannot make it overseas cannot go back SG. SG too expensive already.

Maybe if only went overseas short period like 1-2 years and kept their SG property still can.

But if like me went for almost 20 years and sold HDB already then cannot go back.

We are screwed.

My cousin migrated to Australia, came back, went to work in USA, getting PR. My friend has PR in NZ/Oz and shuttles between Australia and Singapore.
Wah ts got so many relative migrate overseas?
Seems more like a You problem

Why you surround yourselves with quitters?
🤣

Canada

Australia

UK
and sg gov still tell its citizens to integrate with them
👍🏻
very different for my case. i have relatives in malaysia, china, hk, holland, usa and nobody liked singapore. those in malaysia even asked me to join them coz life is easier

i also have friends who worked illegally in australia & usa & thus never paid taxes. life is of course good lol. anthony & trump didn't manage to deport them because as illegal aliens, you have to be very cautious with your movement, communications & whereabouts
Antony and Donald are enemies.

Blacks are glorified by Woke leftists in the US.

Well
Young black males are disproportionately the most in jails in US compared to other races and some or a few are there for life

And read how in inner cities the cops do searches on even black teens and youths
Intrusive ones
Why? Not cos they're gay but to show them from young who's boss and who's in charge

I lived in the US for years. Has it occurred to you that more blacks are jailed because more blacks are criminals?

I don’t need to read Woke propaganda when I could watch it live.

While I agree with u … and I pretty much believe wokeism is tearing apart society

the low educated and unemployed and ppl in poverty re so much so much more likely to take drugs
… Become addicted and jobless prolonged time … then always in a vicious cycle rob steal beg and become theives n robbers == depicting the underprivileged blacks who grew up with missing parent(s) or too many diff set of parents… repeat not one but over generations..

I also read reports and articles of the non blacks having a prejudice against blacks n having very big inclinations to over penalise them even for the slightest minor crime .. even when they aren’t the one doing crime (eg story in to kill a mockingbird)
Really thankful we hv much less racial / Color segregation and acceptable level of racial interaction and mingling from childhood to all walks of life

I prefer to stay away from people in general.

I enjoy peace and quiet. Nature. Open spaces.

I do talk to them at the company Xmas party and gatherings.

Just that we don't socialize during personal time.

I dont find this "tough" at all. I don't have this need to have lots of different friends.

I know quite a number of SGreans and Malaysians have moved to SG.

SG is better.
