In 10 years, my target is to hit $7000/mth, and then I can happily relax and work on things that I want to do :)
I am realistic and contented, not interested in earning millions, just interested in recurrent income that can support my lifestyle :)

if you like taiwan, the ROC airline is also having a discount to upgrade to 1st class, and taiwan is going to have storm very soon
if you like indonesia, Garuda is also offering a special discount to compete with it Dragon budget airline, but be prepare to have lesser insurance coverage.

Terminator hitman: FYI: Singapore is currently the ONLY corruption free, clean, richest city in south-east asia. FYI: Without PAP, Singapore would be the impoverished, 'little red dot' indosnesia smirked at us about. FYI: just because u're down in the dumps, get ur facts right first before u critcise others, joker. an efficient transport system, a dirt-low crime-rate, close to 100% literacy. what has S'pore done for u? it gave u a smooth, trouble-free life. forign-talent taking over? oh please. what a useless excuse. every country has that problem. lets take a look shall we? on the casino opening, there was a job fair EXCLUSIVELY for singaporeans only for jobs in the casino. guess what? the applicants who came were so few eventually the govt had to turn to phillipines. the child-care sector overrun by phillipinos? oh please. in the first place, singaporeans couldnt even bear to get their pricess hands dirty, so the govt had to bring in foriegners, and now u blame them? know what? more than 40% of harvard, princeton and yales all are foriegners.

cassio,
all your facts are wrong.go read before u write.spore is merely standard...and i expect nuthin more or less from system.
getting foreigners in isnt going to solve anything......in fact most countries from usa have tightened up immigration.france have deported thousands of immigrants having been there for generations,australia has eliminated certain visa worker categories and claims it wont be accepting refugees from war torn countries even,germany hates immigrants and claim they are diluting german intellectual capabilities....etc etc
getting foreigners be it from yale or massachusetts isnt goin to solve spores problems either!
yes,,,i blame the foreigners....as singaporeans are fighing against the government..the foreigners willingly come in and be used as ammo by the gov......enabling all democracy and jobs to be taken away from them.we studied hard,worked very hard...sacrificed ourselves thru fire and national service promising sporeans a better future but we were tricked in whole by lowly paid jobs whose market salary was dragged into the gutters by foreigners from all over the world!
the spore wanted to use the foreigners as ammo to kill off the highly educated and highly skilled sporeans who wanted to fight for their survival and future.but u foreigners think nothing of sporeans and let them be wiped out by gov using u foreigners to bring down salary rates,,,taking away jobs.....taking away accomodations..takiing away food....taking away opportunities from sporeans.
u were used as ammo to simply kill us singaporeans.
-
casino jobs are mostly thru agencies which get a cut from all sources...so them saying no sporeans availiable for that job and they need foreigners is a fabricated lie thru greed.its common sense...not something new..its been like that using the same lies for decades!
the gov didnt turn to the phillippines,,,it turned to them for ammo to kill its own singaporeans!!!get thats straight.....what are u??brain dead???sporeans have been fighting a battle withthe gov for decades peacefully......u came in n try to be the all knowing person????phillippinos are all the same.....it doesnt matter if anyone lived or died...as long as they survive and live well....the other phillippino folks can live in a rubbish dump!!!
singapore will not be worse thn the phillippines!it will be better and have always been better!if not those foreigners wouldnt be grovelling like mangy dogs and say yes instantly at the first appearance of some foreign gov..such as clark air base....us military..singapore gov...spanish gov.....zentraedi gov
sporeans arent indifferent like those folks in the phillippines...but we will get rid of you if u do not bow and say yes to us!
-
what would happen to the phillippines:
if the abu sayaf fought with the phillippine gov and they went to arabia to seek help from the mujahideens there and they all came over to the phillippines by the millions?whats phillippines going to be like???i bet the phillippinos would love the mujhaideens coming to the phillippines by the millions and being ammo for the abu sayaaf.
same here as in spore...nothing complicated....
-
and what are these foreign work visa folks doin here in spore????freedom fighters??robbing next generation sporean of jobs???
oh i fergot.....u are only a foreigner.....wats important for u is dat u survive while others rot in hell.thats wat u are all about!

As Singapore’s infrastructure groans under the weight of a five million plus population – more than a third of them foreigners – there’s rising resentment against the island state’s immigrant policy.
BURSTING at our seams. This is a frequent phrase used to describe Singapore these days, after its population crossed the five million mark.
Hardly a day passes without a citizen or two complaining about overcrowdedness or shortage of amenities or rising costs associated with the mass arrival of foreigners.
With immigration continuing to rise, the controversy could become the hottest issue in the general election that is expected to take place within the next 12 months.
What is annoying Singaporeans is, not their presence, but the large number of people who have arrived to work and live in their overstretched city.
The sentiment is, however, not one way.
Support is coming from a section of society which is greatly benefiting from cheap manpower and the larger customer base that the foreigners bring.
For them, the newly-released statistics are encouraging. A new census report released last week shows the population reaching 5.08 million, with foreigners making up 36.4%, or more than a third.
The number of foreign workers has risen some 75% from 750,000 in 2000 to 1.31 million currently.
Adding to the overcrowdedness is the 1.1 million tourists who set foot on this 711 sq km island every month.
The immigration policy has expanded the population by 25% in 10 years, one of the highest rates in the world, surpassing even the traditional migrant societies.
Canada’s population, for instance, is 19.8% foreign-born, New Zealand’s 23% and the US 16%.
In Japan, one legislator recently suggested raising the foreign content of its declining population to 10% within the next 10 years.
Singapore’s record, as far as its citizens are concerned, is less than welcomed. The new arrivals have strained its infrastructure, creating a shortage in public housing that was once Singapore’s showcase to the world.
As a result, thousands of graduates who plan to settle down are compelled to wait for years – or jostle with foreign PRs to pay a lot more for a resale flat. Roads and shopping plazas are jammed during weekends, and hospitals as well as buses and trains are packed.
“People have to queue for a restaurant table and queue again to pay the bill,” one shopper moaned.
Timmy lamented: “I remember Singapore was not like this a few years ago.
“Now our standard of living is dropping every day.”
Many are complaining of spiralling prices in the wake of growing demand. Another Singaporean, Daniel, said: “I find it unsettling just to note how fast our society is being taken over by foreigners.”
Last week, a foreign correspondent based here wrote that Singapore is showing symptoms of urban stress as more immigrants and guest workers jostle for space with the locals.
He named some of them – “flash floods along posh Orchard Road; packed subway trains; traffic gridlock in the morning and evening rush hours and intensifying competition for public flats.”
They have affected Singapore’s image as a squeaky-clean, smooth-flowing city that has earned it the reputation as one of the world’s most livable, he added.
Businesses and motorists recently complained about road closures or diversions for major public events.
Motorists were asked to give way to buses transporting athletes taking part in the Youth Olympics; shops in the city centre were affected.
To cope with increasing demand and shrinking supply, property developers have happily been reducing the average size of flats, making buyers pay more to get less.
A 1,600 sq ft flat which was the average in the 80s is today regarded as a luxury. In fact, some under-300 sq ft apartment dwellings have made an appearance for S$500,000 (RM1.16mil) each – and sold like hot cakes.
Singapore architect Khoo Peng Beng, in a speech last week in Venice, said that urban planners who were bracing for a influx of people should look to Singapore as a “model compact city”.
The ruling People’s Action Party (PAP) is evidently concerned about the rising public resentment.
“It is fighting its biggest political battle in modern history,” said a company consultant. On the outcome will decide the long-term future of the party, he said.
Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong last week announced a number of important measures to improve sentiments, including:
Making it easier for first-time buyers by building a total 38,000 more government flats in 2010-11, as well as cutting down on owners having more than one such flat.
Spending S$60bil (RM139bil) over the next 10 years to double Singapore’s mass rail network to relieve over-crowding.
A top up of S$9,000 (RM20,848) to S$10,500 (RM24,323) over 12 years in their study grant and retirement fund for those Singaporeans who complete their 12-year national service cycle.
It is apparently aimed at convincing Singaporeans that they come first before foreigners.
The move to increase the chances of first-time buyers to get a subsidised flat is well received by some young Singaporeans, but few believe Lee has changed the overall political landscape.
For the estimated 1.8 million foreign residents here, the uppermost question is whether it will lead to any deterioration of public sentiments towards them.
In recent years, there had been increasing conflicts between locals and foreigners but rarely any violence. Political leaders have repeatedly appealed to citizens to help the new arrivals integrate.
Prominent blogger Lucky Tan said that until the arrivals turned excessive, Singaporeans were the most open people in the world.
“Nowhere else in the world can you find such a high level of acceptance of foreigners,” he noted.
It was only when they crossed the 25% mark and structural unemployment emerged that Singaporeans began to react, he added.
