In SGD or USD?
Quality of life is equivalent to old folks scavenging for drink cans in rubbish bins, but these days times are so bad that the price for recyclable aluminium is so low that even old folks are forgoing it.

If i'm not wrong should be SGD. These results were announced by some independent auditors.

In the 1990s, LKY's vision that Singapore will have a swiss living standard. If i rememeber correctly, he hoped to fulfil this vision before 1991.

Actually, he did fulfilled it. We are currently living the Swiss life of 1991.

Someone should document all the past events and remind the future generations.
But dun ask me to document it hor!

No worry, i won't. It is a different culture here. Over there people are really very vocal, very aggressive in their posting. Here it is considered mild and yet there are some still kpkb about people talking about the ruling party.
We have to be cautious of people who one moment bash pee ay pee and another moment point fingers at others doing the same. I suspect they are here subtlely to shut mouths of people to discusss negatively about pee ay pee. Their credibility is questionable.

Few years back.. I did.. but as a tourist.
I only see young people cleaning tables and serving coffees.
They are big on recycling, so there's no market for their old to collect cans and paper boxes. With the kind of retirement plans.. and cheaper housing in their "suburbs", life must be so much better for seniors in their golden years.
But then again.. I don't reside there.. so I probably don't get the full picture.

"Over there people are really very vocal," where is there?
You're in a public domain, a virtual world. You cannot expect much on credibility. Furthermore, alot of information were lost during that time on how PAP gain victory. Nowadays, even people older than me dunno who is Lim Chin Siong.
And those rumours about LKY and his donkey family were only hear say. It may be true but nobody dares to admit how true it was.
