Is Singapore the best country to live in for a scientist?
The West seems so turbulent.
When I was a kid I wanted to be a nerd as an adult. Guy that works solving problems in front of a computer, and comes back to his big suburban home in a street filled with trees to be greeted by a hot hazelnut haired female nerd professor of history or geology or something like that while she is getting dinner out of the oven. Meanwhile I play the Super NES of the future with my kid while preparing for the super bowl.
After the dinner, my female and I would have a warm bath in the Jacuzzi listening to Sade or some shit while planning the visit the weekend trip to the museum in a cool nearby city.
That is impossible. The well is poisoned. Confrontation, economic stagnation... the mainstream discourse is too low.
Besides, I HATE BEGGARS AND I HATE OBESE PEOPLE. If I lived in a society with few obese people, I would love them. But now the innocent obese suffer the consequences of being surrounded by the lazy obese.
I hate fat people, I hate how low the average IQ is.
Is this the end of the West?
Is Singapore the place to be for serious people??

You are literally a /sci/ meme.

Singapore sounds like it is out of your price range.
Singapore is going to be harder, not easier OP. If you have problems in the West that you cannot resolve, you will definitely have problems in Singapore.

Not if I get a job there.

I just meant that it is a very expensive place to live.
If you feel passionately about something go for it though.

Singapore models the best place for science to flourish. It's economic model is based on, "Everyone around me is corrupt, so we will be Switzerland and just make money off their inability to sort their shit out." Australia would do well to be the first country to try and merge east-west.
I personally do not mind the HDB because you can always make those things better (economies of scale).
People only beg to crawl their way into societies good graces. They do not desire worship, only the space to give as necessary.
East/West must meet.

You sound hugely pretentious.

No. He is just chinese. They have strict moral codes and believe that your physical self is a direct representation of your 'spiritual' self. The body is there to be bent to your will, not become a part of it.
East/West must meet.

Only if you are a multimillionaire, otherwise it's a shit place.

That's already happening m8. You have a lot of japs and koreans making their eyes look bigger and westerners practicing meditation and martial arts. That intersection only tends to grow.

What makes you think you can get a job there?

Don't fuck with the government please.
t. man who lived there for two years and talked to the locals

Sorry to burst your bubble but... Grass is always greener, buddy. We have our fair share of problems here, as with everywhere else in the world. For one, the older generations of singaporeans tend to be rather close minded, and so, xenophobic. What makes you think you can settle comfortably here, OP?
Besides, as almost everyone else has mentioned, this is a country that has been consistently ranked as one of the most expensive cities in the world to live in. Forget about 'flourishing scientifically' if you can barely make ends meet. That being said, I sincerely wish you all the best, OP.
