  HDB 2003 survey results shows that 93.4% of those living in HDB flats are satisfied with their standard of living in Singapore.
  
  I wonder who they did they survey? People who are living in the HDB condo?
  
  My personal surveys with friends showed the opposite results. 90% are NOT satisfied with their quality of life in Singapore.
  
  What is your opinon? What do your friends say?

  you must rea;lise that in surveys there are pple that tend to lie
  
  tendency to luie increases when government agenceis are involved due to fear of reprisal which is probably quite valid

  they shouldn have average mthly income.. they should have it per capita...
  
  and... categorise average by type of housing...
  
  or.... the average salary across "ppl who completed their education within 5 years of this survey" "ppl who completed their education within 6-10 years of this survey" etc
