Are you suggesting Singapore NTU and NUS are the best?Originally posted by walesa:I'm sure CalTech, MIT, Stanford and UC Berkely are absolutely horrendous schools prone to racist attacks and the odd lunatic going round gunning people down...

Got the data?Originally posted by Gazelle:a) Wat was your intention for quoting the 3 african countries when we talk about cost of living? (Have you been there? do you have relatives and friends living there?)
b) Before start barking, would you also believe the Lagos in Nigeria and Douala cameroon is actually more expensive than Amsterdam? -
What do you even know about anything outside these 4 walls and the propaganda you've been inundated with? At the rate you're going on, I'm about to start believing even Pyongyang is more expensive than New York...Originally posted by Gazelle:a) Wat was your intention for quoting the 3 african countries when we talk about cost of living?

I'm suggesting you're an idiot to think there's no difference between US colleges barring those in the Ivies. Just go round asking any employer in the US if Brown, Dartmouth or Cornell graduates (without assessing the quality of the candidates - just look at the colleges they come from) are actually favourably looked upon over their Stanford, MIT, CalTech, UC Berkely counterparts?Originally posted by Gazelle:Are you suggesting Singapore NTU and NUS are the best?
For the record, those in the Ivies may not even be the best in their respective discipline... -
Did you have an african father?Originally posted by walesa:What do you even know about anything outside these 4 walls and the propaganda you've been inundated with? At the rate you're going on, I'm about to start believing even Pyongyang is more expensive than New York... -

As likely as you having a North Korean one...Originally posted by Gazelle:Did you have an african father? -
I am not comparing which university has the biggest piece of paper certificate, but rather, the pay package and opportunity they get when they are out of school.Originally posted by walesa:I'm suggesting you're an idiot to think there's no difference between US colleges barring those in the Ivies.

And please we are comparing Ivy League to TOP 25 university, not the best universities within the Ivy League. -
That statement of yours already illustrates how myopic your views are and how little you know about US colleges.Originally posted by Gazelle:I am not comparing which university has the biggest piece of paper certificate, but rather, the pay package and opportunity they get when they are out of school.
And please we are comparing Ivy League to TOP 25 university, not the best universities within the Ivy League.
I'm telling you now categorically in case you didn't realise : Stanford, MIT, Caltech, UC Berkeley are not Ivy League colleges and these schools are not regarded any worse by employers than the Yales, Harvards, Princetons, Cornells, Dartmouths and Browns of this world.
So, is it still true that all colleges outside the Ivies are actually the "same"? I guess Virginia Tech is as prestigious as MIT, huh? ( Since they're both outside the Ivy League and should therefore be the "same" )
PS : For the record, these are the Ivy League Schools - Harvard, Yale, Princeton, UPenn, Dartmouth, Cornell, Brown, Columbia. Anything outside these 8 are not in the Ivy League... -
People migrate cause of several reasons n the way u talked gave people a bad impression. U trying to persuade other local not to migrate to other countries?Originally posted by Gazelle:Sorry I am not talking about if you like men or women, black brown white or yellow. What I am asking is if you are living in white pussie land australia.
After all those white men will need white d.ick suckers like you to satisfy their craving for cheap labours. -
please don't feed the trolls.

Guys,
Gazelle is famous for his anti-Australian opinions here. Don't get too dragged in. -
It's just kinda pitiful though, I hardly think deciding to becoming racist, not to mention condemming many people he has never even met before, as well as plenty of his own fellow citizens... is exactly the kind of person we can consider to be credible of speaking for any side at all.
-
I think Anti-Australian is too tame.
He's a racist and certainly belongs to the obnoxious bunch of Chinese Chauvinists in Singapore who think that Chinese values are good and Western Values are abominations. Some of his remarks reek of enough racism you'd wonder what good all the talk about racism in Singapore has done. -
Singapore has racism, who said it doesn't exist?
-
Oh no, racism has alway existed in Singapore. It's just that you'd expect someone who actually staunchly support the PAP to at least follow some of the party's core tenets like some religionOriginally posted by LazerLordz:Singapore has racism, who said it doesn't exist?
But that aside, the PAP has some built in mechanisms. -
The good news is, no one needs to take him credibly.
Anytime he attempts to say anything, we can simply quote his racist remarks and leave it as that.
In any case, does not his remarks qualify him to be charged under the sedition act? Maybe we should report him? -
really, I think your family are dumb and stupid and that is why people are calling you sillyporean. And guess what, you have already got use to be call a dumb pri.ck singaporean.Originally posted by SingaporeTyrannosaur:The good news is, no one needs to take him credibly.

Yawn... pls lar, you use this zhao so many times until no effect liao. One would think for all the gar'men's call for us to upgrade ourselves, you'll bother to learn.

Cut the mug some slack, will you? Afterall, he's living proof of what the anti-imperialist, post-independence fascist-propaganda-infested education system could nurture...Originally posted by Fingolfin_Noldor:Oh no, racism has alway existed in Singapore.

The Sedition Act is enough already to prosecute people hurling racist remarks.Originally posted by SingaporeTyrannosaur:It's just kinda pitiful though, I hardly think deciding to becoming racist, not to mention condemming many people he has never even met before, as well as plenty of his own fellow citizens... is exactly the kind of person we can consider to be credible of speaking for any side at all. -
and it is ranked 34th amongst the standard of living amongst countries.Originally posted by Gazelle:Singapore is ranked 17th in the list of world most expensive cities, behind, seoul, toyko, hong kong, beijing, osaka, so what are you talking about? -
I am seriously considering living too. After this pay hike fiasco, I am now totally disillusioned with the Singapore society.Originally posted by Coquitlam:Cool...soulwinner you made the right choice...where would you like to go? MElbourne, Vancouver, Calgary, Toronto, Perth, Seattle...Shanghai?
Everyone is working like slaves for a few people whom claim they are talents but have no achievements to talk about. -
If Minister Teo Chee Hian has benchmarked the ministers' salaries to the 34th country in the world based on standard of living, one wonder if our ministers could become underpaid.
If we are to listen to our ministers' speeches they have always wanted to benchmark themselves to the 1st or at least the 33rd country and not the 34th country.
Are the salaries of CEOs of such 34th country worth benchmarked to for our world's first ministers.
The ranking of Singapore as 34th country in the world might have been a big mistake.
