Singapore has become an undead society.

are you a teen?Originally posted by Glen999:i think singapore lifestyle is too rush.. similar to hong kong..
we cannot relax a moment... everytime have to think about money..
when you need to earn money to sustain your expensive HDB as well as expensive lifestyle... you will play politics in office, you will backstab your collegue to get promotion, you will not help the needy, you will not apprciate people surrounding you.....
(generally speaking)
oh well if you think its too expensive, our neighbour to the north is always open, and cheap.. you should really go live in hong kong or tokyo to appreciate how affordable life can be in sg and appreciate what you have instead of biatching -
sorry hor. ... don't simply come up with statement. have u been there?Originally posted by vito_corleone:are you a teen? oh well if you think its too expensive, our neighbour to the north is always open, and cheap.. you should really go live in hong kong or tokyo to appreciate how affordable life can be in sg and appreciate what you have instead of biatching

think this is linked to another thread that Singaporeans work more than 72hrs a week heehee
yah many blank, expressionless faces in mrts, buses even on weekends
how nice it would be if everyone smiles, says hi, bye and thank you (machiam the "Go the Extra Mile for Service" (GEMS) Movement advertisement lol )
life is yours to live, can be exciting, can be dull, it all depends on you
but who is to say a simple life is sian? one man's meat is another man's poison
there are people who prefer a simple "boring" life
guess it depends on which phase in life you are in

I have this theory - the hot weather here is the problem to people. People can't feel relax because of the hot weather. People want to rush (to home) and hardly have time to chit chat in the open. That includes saying hi too.
Only people in cooler nations have the relax moment. -
i think it's the environment changes the human-being...
for example, saturday/sunday, go to food court... noisy / crowded....
but ordinary people have to go as it's cheaper than restaurant.. -
Not really. Also depends on yur boss, company, school teachers etcOriginally posted by 1bigmess:think this is linked to another thread that Singaporeans work more than 72hrs a week heehee

These people have the power to make one's life miserable and overloaded with work and stress -
talking cost of living not sian-nessOriginally posted by Glen999:sorry hor. ... don't simply come up with statement. have u been there?

READ CAREFULLY the thread, we are not talking about cost of living and don't simply scold people by saying "biatching"...Originally posted by vito_corleone:talking cost of living not sian-ness READ CAREFULLY.
Affordable life in singapore compared to Tokyo?
i tell u... don't simply "biatching" if you never stay in tokyo.... the lifestyle you pay in tokyo is much better compared to singapore lifestyle for the absolute same amount of money.....
if you are an adult, set a good example... don't "biatching" in this forum.... -
Open fire with shotgun.
