  And I hope you can improve your English too. If your English is bad and you want to talk to an ah beng, it'll be a total disaster.

  what is an "ah beng" ??
  
  I haven't spoken english for a while, so it will come back.... it's like bicycle....
  
  By the way, my biggest problem is to find the good programme.... and to find financial aids in my country.

  You know the Hong Kong mafias? Ah bengs are like HK mafias, just a little lower in class.
  
  And their most powerful weapon is a sharp blade only.

  Ah Beng is a term commonly given to a member of a group of young Chinese men in Southeast Asia, particularly Singapore and Malaysia. These Chinese men, whose age ranging from their early teens to late 20s, usually centralise in the busier and more developed cities in the region, but are usually seen as originating from smaller or more rural towns. Ah bengs typically speak local slang, which is Hokkien or Cantonese mixed with English and Malay, such as Manglish or Singlish. They are often stereotypically portrayed to be anti-intellectual, superficial and materialistic and shallow. These values often lead to a lack of culture or indulgence in criminal activity or being involved in brawling or affray out of disagreement with other people. Ah bengs are also sometimes associated with extensively-modified or zhng-ed cars, and are stereotypically seen as being excessively flashy and show-offs.
  The term 'Ah Beng' is also sometimes used to describe young Chinese men in Southeast Asia who cannot speak fluent English and/or have graduated from the secular Chinese education system of the region.

  I dont think communicating 'ah bengs' is really a priority consideration for TS at this moment.
  
  Francky, expenses wise, necessities in Singapore will be cheaper, especially with the favourable exchange rate you can enjoy with the Euro.

  If you come in as a student in a local university, you can work part-time... the problem is, I seriously doubt that you can work and study at the same time... unless you don't need sleep... maybe what you can do is get a job first then do a masters... part time...

  rich people come to SGP for what? What is there to entice them? the only reason for foreigners to come is to make their money and run!
