Is Singapore the closest thing to paradise?

A lot of money, no crime, women lust over western males, a weather that lets you be sportive and in the streets all year around...

Anybody visited it? Anybody living there?

Come to singapore as the chink getting out of there

they have a lot of weird laws

Nah. Their economy is superior. The only downside to Singapore seems to be high costs of real estate.

In Japan the island that the closest to heaven is believed to be New Caledonia.
>>
>>79039502
>New Caledonia

Their natives seem a little savage, though
>>
>>79039527
The days of violence there seem to be long over. Besides, they natives are getting outpopulated by Polynesian immigrants from nearby islands who are not at all interested in the whole "muh kanaky" gimmick. Not only that, but becoming quite a wealthy place, and thus the proportion of Europeans isn't going particularly downwards (and they're almost equal in number to the Kanak).

And if you ignore the Kanak chimpouts as well as the few mining sites, then New Caledonia does indeed seem to be quite heavenly.

DISNEYLAND WITH THE DEATH PENALTY

Singapore is the cleanest and most well behaved place I've ever been to, but it comes with a unsettling air of sterility. It's the kind of place you don't want to spend more than a few days in, as the attitude of the city does weird things to your mind.

There doesn't seem to be any culture. Even in Chinatown or Little India, they seem to be quarantined locations where a certain level of "otherness" is permitted, but strictly within the unspoken Singaporean social code. For fun the locals just go to one of the billlion shopping malls, or go out eating. There's an obsession with consumerism that even America can't match. When I went to a theme park it seemed just as real as walking along the streets in Orchard Road.

It was nice having cute Asian girls hitting on me, and it's nice that they're all fluent in English, but there's something so strangely fake about the place that is off putting. For me, Hong Kong is the real Anglo-Chinese city. It's not as clean or as perfect, but it feels less like an amusement park.

hmm interesting. I've always had thoughts that our city is simply built to impress, silhouetted as a city built as an prototype; a fabricated city if you will, something conspicuous about it that felt excessive at times.

I wonder if SG people have the same feeling if they go to Dubai or so? I got the same impression in so many cities in Gulf countries

I live in Spain and I do the same. Or go to the beach, go jogging, etc. Same as in Singapore.

It's a city state. What else would you do? It's the same everywhere.

Come here and do this then run over our fire hydrants for some reason.

In my country there are street thieves that have commited the same crime 50 times and still dn't go to jail.

As long as they steal less than 400€ from you, they are free. So they do the same thing again and again.

Our government tried to change that and the judges didn't let us (?¿?¿?!!?! the fuck??!).

I prefer Singaporean way.

I don't like the Singapore government on many issues but such reports are really patronizing, especially when visitors only see the tourist spots. There's plenty of filth and seediness in Singapore.

Any where is a paradise if you are only a tourist.

I feel like it's the remix of the whole "you can be like us but you'll never be truly equal to us" kind of thing Westerners have. There's always something missing that no matter, no matter how developed or great you are what you will never be an equal always a facsimile. Some vague x-factor...a "soul".

Most girls like Chads. That's why they're Chads. Impress her with your horseback archery skills.

There are other chinks too, but they speak shitty english. I wonder how they got in the first place

Oh that explains the petty crime meme in Spain. You can walk around with 5 grand on you in Manhattan and not get robbed even by violent coercion but those pickpocket faggots will steal 4 euro worth of coins from you. Sickening mate, agreed.

Ironic that a Malay of all people would accuse Singaporeans of being trash. You are literally the underclass of Singapore.

There's discrimination against Malays but talented Malays can still do well for themselves. The true underclass of Singapore are the low-skill foreign workers who get screwed by scummy employers while the Government turns a blind eye.
