The simple things in life are what need to be appreciated the most. I’m the type of person who enjoys power failures… I find that getting back to basics is very satisfying. Just pick up a book for a change and get off the friggin merry-go-round.

what you mean by " enjoys power failures… "

How you spend your leave and weekend in Singapore? I’ll be back in Singapore this weekend and I look forward to my usual nightly walks, about 1-2 hours every day. I tend to walk in landed/semi-d neighborhoods which are quiet and relaxing. I’ll also be doing some cycling and swimming. In the morning...

How you spend your leave and weekend in Singapore?

For me is nope. Well I know those ultra rich value their privacy. Sentosa cove is the place for them. For me if I'm so call " ultra rich " I more will go for those first tier condo at Marina Bay or at Orchard road. For me convience is important. You literally no need to drive if you stay there as ju...

I worked for a couple of MNCs and seem like expat packages are rarer too, whereas for PRCs/Filipinos/Vietnamese etc the wage difference is still very attractive.

This is why perhaps getting lesser compare back in 80/90s.

back in good old days 80s early 90s. I noticed quite a lot " Ang Moh " expats staying in Singapore. Later come late 90s, suddenly spike of PRC, CECA , Pinyo. Than around mid 2000 come Vietnamese.

Is actually dangerous to kids, teens. Now a days a lot so call " influencer " just wanna create contents...

Banks, e com , etc. For what I see have to see which type of jobs scope which technology the likes of AI and robots which can replace it. There are some works obviously so far AI , robots can't replace in depth. Even come cleaner. Some of their works can be done by machine which business owners can ...

Not really, I think we still have a strong stable regulatory environment that attracts a lot of investors to set up shop here. :) honestly speaking just a " base " small office. Party due to high rental here next high labour cost. Elon Musk recently got tweet SG population is decreasing thus into r...

While Singapore faces challenges with rising costs and regional competition, its strategic location, strong infrastructure, and business-friendly environment remain attractive to MNCs. Adaptation and innovation may sustain its appeal, but policymakers must address cost concerns and enhance competit...

I dislike Facebook, Tiktok, Threads, Twitter, IG. They are a reptition of one another. And doesn't bring more value into our lives except wasting a lot of time.

True but also a way to get some latest news .

Wd40 summed it up perfectly.

Forums are my goto places online too.

@SGBoyxxx I still don't see the point of IG and tiktok, mostly photos and videos with no real information.

Well which I mention early is usually teens they seem more into IG and tiktok.
