I'm originally from HK, lived in the US for 10 years and moved here to Singapore exactly one month ago. So far I love it and think it's as least as good if not better than HK.

Finally, there's another US/HK'er here! I'm originally from HK too, but grew up in the US. Where in the US did you stay?

Hello! I am new here! I am from HK, and have been staying in Singapore for 1.5 years. i feel life in Spore is more relax n since my family is not here, I can spend more time on doing my own interest n goin out w friends more.
Actually it is always good 2 work/live in another country, ppl will always experience different life and meet different ppl. I feel I learn alot here. of coz i do miss my HK friends n family; but if will always meet new friends here. dun worry.
I would also like 2 meet more ppl from HK, I miss the catno songs alot........now I am very out...if there s any gathering i would like 2 join! :)

Personally, I prefer SG to HK.

I love HK and everything, I have lots of friends and family there. But SG has a homely feeling. It feels more like home.

I do visit HK a lot, and from SG its only a short flight away.

I've just moved to Singapore for a new job and I used to work in HK for a couple of years before so I've kind of seen both sides (I'm not a local of either, I'm from England). I think both places have their advantages, Singapore has a nicer environment I'd say but then HK is a bit more dynamic, depends what you like. I just took the opportunity to come to Singapore as I felt like I'd 'done it' regarding HK but hadn't yet tried living in Singapore. Just need to make some friends here now and I'll be all set, oh and I do miss cafe de coral in HK (yeah I know, I have no taste :P )

Hi everyone,

Sorry that ong time havent show up. Very obviously I do enjoy my life with my little prince (yslee comments my prince become a king already). :P

Many ppls say I married with a S'porean and having a family here thats why I prefer stay in Singapore. Without my family, I still prefer living & working here. I got a lot of friends in CGC and they gave me a very great time in the last 2 years. And we have built up a good relationship not just friends, like a family. I meet up with them even more than my own family members. :shock:

To be frank, without the malaysian ppls in the group, we won't know each other. We wont have a group called, CGC.

Moonriver, please propose the venue for gathering. Cant wait to meeting new friends.

Glad to see it's not just me then :D It was funny that the local guys in the office always had it for lunch and then always chastised themselves afterwards, similar to me eating McDonalds at home and then knowing I shouldn't have straight after haha
