  I worked in Thailand and Malaysia, and compared to the amount of work the average worker does over there, Singaporeans are working worse than a bull in the fields... but under the rule of money grabbing despots, Singaporeans  are in relative terms paid peanuts.

   

   

  oh no wonder durai was also paid peanuts

  $2 tells little about singaporeans' financial situation.
