The research is done by MasterCard Worldwide Research ?
How did the research arrive at its conclusion ? Do you have any details ?
Was it done from the perspective and interests of MasterCard Worldwide in the number of card holders that subscribed to their services, or from the turnover in MasterCard revenues generated from transactions made by Cardholders ?
With Singapore being reputed as second to Japan in terms of personal income, should this come as a surprise ?
Perhaps, the No 2 spot may have also included the highest number of credit card defaulters, as well as successful bankruptcies concluded ?
What was Singapore ranking in the suicide rates as a result of the personal financial mismanagement due to credit card abuse ?

Whats tokyo's suicide rate ? Bankruptcy rate ? Credit card defaulters ? We are living in a highly competitive city and we can't stop people from spending beyond their means and choosing to end their lives. You hear people migrating to perth, vancouver whatever..but you don't hear of people moving to Tokyo, people move out. Same shit.

Spending beyond their means does have implications should we be hit by some currency devaluation, something that our own MAS has been, to an extent, very vigiliant about.

May be profitable in the long run. Or come to Singapore work as propoganda dog.In terms of actual commerce being conducted in terms of volume and quantity, Singapore probably rates behind many other Chinese cities.
