anyway, back to the topic. yah.. there is of course two faces to the grass on the other side.. but still, i would like to leave SG for a while.. if i have the ability. Even though there may not be as politically safe as SG, i think i would like to get myself exposed to a different culture and political system. SG is juz too protected. I dun wanna live here all my life and die here without seeing the world out there.
Nod nod...I would advice one to explore and expose to other countries and cultures. Protected?...in a sense yeap. Our goverment is quite efficient, compared to a num of countries. Is always good to expand your horizon.

As for where is better, it all depends on what you want in life. Whether you are willing to give up your life, friends, relatives here...and plunge into a new culture and enviroment.
Just do not take things at face value, based on what other say. If possible, try experience it first hand...it's way much different. But do be prepared for a culture shock.
