Lion watch

When I started to write something, I suddenly wondered whether to use it in Singapore or come to Singapore, or go to Singapore.

After all, people dream back at midnight at the airport, or in the early morning.

Including Pudong Airport, it is hard to say that it is in Singapore.

Naturally, I can’t even talk about it.

One is going back home now.

The second is to come to the end is a kind of return.

As a person who went to Nanyang to work illegally, it is hard to say what sense of belonging there is.

As for going, although it belongs to the past tense.

After all, it has been working for a month.

But from another perspective, facing the fact that it is a vacation after all, I still have to go back to work.

Looking at it that way, it’s not that bad.

It’s so long-winded, it’s probably still a relatively difficult thing to define in a new job.

Two days ago, a kid from the previous company also came to ask if it was worth going to Singapore now.

Or is there a question of whether or not it is necessary.

Just like a sudden moistening tide, persuasion seems to be surging suddenly.

Using a bot in a certain tg group to speak, when anyone asks what is good about Singapore, the unified reply is that the tax is low.

This summary seems to be humorous and accurate now.

It’s like talking about someone cute instead of pretty.

Apart from the curry-like singlish, there are also some differences from domestic habits.

For example, if you are used to a brand of food, clothing, and travel, you will naturally have to pick it up again when you arrive.

One is the market positioning is different.

Second, the channel habits are different.

After living in China for a long time, there are naturally convenient purchasing channels and methods.

Although it is expected to arrive at a new place, there are still some differences after all.

Although it is not that there are some large supermarket chains/brands, compared to the few near-monopoly channels in China, they are still far behind.

This is probably a question of economic size.

Including what is often said, it is easy for the masses of laborers to survive and have dignity in some western countries.

The appearance is that work does not distinguish between high and low, but the reality may be that the market size is not enough to stimulate industrial substitution.

Just like a small country with few people can naturally have craftsmen.

The market is small and the demand is limited, so naturally there is no particularly urgent competitive pressure.

As for the trade between city-states, it is another matter.

So the word volume is to some extent a question of the size gap of capacity.

But it is not true to say that Singapore does not have such a monopoly.

Like local DBS banks, as well as businesses of all sizes that are visible to the naked eye are bound to the advantages of DBS.

Like the linkage between Singtel and DBS, yuu/PAssion and other staggered connections.

It seems that under the background that craftsmen can live with dignity, there is also a huge shadow of this consortium alliance.

It’s like paraphrasing a famous meme.

Putting on the mask is a free trade international port, and taking off the mask to see clearly is a government-led financial group.

Sometimes it seems that there is nothing wrong with changing the domain name of these well-known companies in the island to gov.sg.

So in this eccentricity, it is hard not to consider the value of PR.

When I first arrived in Singapore, I went to the National Museum.

Then I finally realized that if you are not a PR/Citizen as a foreigner, you still have to pay for the exhibition yourself.

Although it is not sure whether there is a similar difference in treatment when I was in Shenzhen.

Come to think of it, probably not.

I remember a certain time when Nanshan Museum was in line to see an exhibition, there was a Japanese couple just holding their passports.

Looking back, I am not criticizing this behavior of charging foreigners.

After all, in theory, it does belong to the investment of financial construction resources.

As a resident taxpayer in the country, it is also reasonable.

Although EP etc. are still excluded.

But at least in terms of tendency, this artificial pyramid support model is still somewhat uncomfortable design.

Although historically speaking, Singapore is an intermediary country with the inherent class division logic in the colonial background, it is normal to have such division and inheritance.

It is a kind of cultural heritage.

This is some understanding on the social and cultural level.

Other cultural feelings are the so-called inclusive and diversity.

Regardless of the origin of multi-ethnic or multi-racial in history.

One of my feelings when I actually integrate into this political right environment is that the premise for the coexistence of various ethnic groups is actually an intersection.

One feature is dietary, especially as a somewhat Islamic state.

Whether it is religious taboos or simple considerations of taste habits of different ethnic groups, in a social structure that emphasizes diversity, there can always only be a limited number of intersections.

And if we want to break through this monotony, all kinds of strange cultural hybrids will follow.

Whether it is diet structure or expression style lifestyle habits.

Although it is said that there are also problems of ethnic integration in China.

But generally speaking, the single Han nationality still accounts for a considerable part of the society.

Even so, there are salty and sweet disputes between various regions.

However, it is actually impossible and realistic to achieve that kind of theoretical inclusiveness and political correctness.

A counterexample that may be extreme but makes sense is that it is also a kind of discrimination against the diversity/inclusive minority that does not agree.

So to some extent, this is also a cute attribute.

It’s flashy and has serious tendencies.

It may be more realistic to consider population division instead of putting colored glasses on population division.

After all, from the perspective of human history, aggregation and change is the basic form of integration.

If they cannot be grouped together, then naturally they cannot form a suitable production relationship.

Then talk about economics.

For some unknown reasons, I opened an HSBC card.

Although in theory, it should be more mainstream to open DBS.

After all, there are many outlets, and it can be regarded as a state-owned enterprise.

However, the agent connected to the relocation suggests that HSBC should be faster if the card is issued quickly.

After looking at the account opening process, it was indeed roughly consistent with what the agent said, so I only opened HSBC based on the principle that it can be used.

The reason why it is roughly the same as the agent is because after looking at the official procedures, the basic IPA can be started after the completion of the process.

Don’t wait for the EP to watch it.

After all, the key proof of address mainly depends on employment certification, not EP itself.

Or just one of the options.

A digression is also about these agents.

To some extent, the basics of relocation do not provide any substantial help.

Including the opening of the card, it is only transferred to an HSBC person.

Other things like house hunting and local familiarization are done by yourself.

Although I said that I can handle it by myself, it mainly depends on the attitude of the other party like ICBC.

So conversely, the introductory intermediary in the West can be regarded as a more formal or even necessary profession, more or less due to the class design mentioned above.

Of course, if you look at it from another angle, it is relatively reckless in China.

As for how to evaluate, it is naturally a question of each person’s value orientation.

Naturally, it’s not entirely without expectations.

For example, the standard of the supporting facilities of the condo here.

Basically, it is equipped with swimming pool and gymnasium as standard.

Although the actual maturity level varies.

But at least it is a standard product.

Then there is transparency such as renting a house. Basically, there is no difference or little difference between the actual site and the photos.

It can also be regarded as an advantage to promote the standardization of transactions.

Another point worth mentioning is the maintenance of the house.

Although some buildings may be 50-60 years old, in addition to the inherent conditions such as style and inherent layout, the maintenance itself is still possible.

Broadly speaking, it is also a consequence of the colonial economy.

The intrinsic drive of property preservation brought about by private property rights.

There is no awareness of this aspect in China. It may not be a problem of property rights, but a problem of expected holding cycle.

It is more or less a way of dealing with short-term temporary assets.

Of course, there may actually be more institutional issues such as legal guarantees and accountability for the management relationship of social apartments.

So in essence, it is still a problem of benefit benefits derived from access isolation brought about by class design.

In the final analysis, Singapore’s problem is still a problem of system and size.

As a country, this limitation is like a competition between talent and family background.

You can’t say that talent is useless in front of family background.

But you can’t say it’s useful.

For individuals, no matter what their social status is.

The upper limit can never exceed one country.

Of course, when it comes to individuals, they are just ministers of the common people, working hard in Nanyang, Gou Quan’s life in troubled times, and not seeking to be known to the princes.
