Being a STB tour guide, l can say with certainty people that think Singapore is boring (broadly) falls into three categories. - On tight-budget: would avoid all attractions that require an admission fee. - The uninformed: Didn't read up the transformation history of SG and didn't plan their itinerary. - Contents creators: failed to secured local sponsorships to pay for their trip.
I couldn’t agree more. I’ve visited Singapore several times and am always so impressed with how so efficiently the country is run. If I had the choice or opportunity I would move there without hesitation but alas being retired the cost implications are now way out of my reach.
The comment 'Singapore is boring' is a myth that's been perpetuated over the years by Singapore's competitors that, if you repeat something over and over again, you will believe it, and it will stick. It's just like Hong Kong's self proclaimed 'Asia's World City', which was so cleverly marketed, that it has stuck in people's minds, despite the fact that HK is not racially or culturally diverse like Singapore or Kuala Lumpur. I think it is time that Singaporeans change the false narrative, and start propagating the phrase 'Singapore is Exciting'.
Aside from the aging Orchard Road, Sentosa and Marina Bay which are not the real heartland Singapore. Tell us what's exciting about Singapore. Let me start, the boat ride, fishing, cycle trail and fresh seafood at Pulau Ubin is the best escapade in Singapore. What's so exciting about ToaPayoh or Bedok or Commonwealth or Marsiling the whatever real Singapore?
@@jjhenry3338 - what is so exciting about Buckingham Palace, Thames River, and other places in London even English country side or NYC or Paris? It's the same old same old if you just see things around you with a boredom mindset but if you can bring yourself to see everyday is a brand new fresh day, then everything mundane and routine is exciting.
@@nikiclio Life everywhere is routine and mundane. However it's another thing when people call Singapore boring. The 4room HDB is the same in TeckWhye to OutramPark to Punggol. The hawker center food is bland and the same in every one of them. With a few good ones far in between. Bill Gates in his visit in the 90s asked where are the houses? He expressed what every foreign visitor saw. That's a tiny boring man-made concrete island city state. Unlike ASEAN countries including London, NYC and Paris have their own attractive natural charm especially outside the big city centers. That's what boring means and it's an accurate description of Singapore.
Max, I agree with him in saying that in addition to Singapore 🇸🇬, other countries in Asia also provide the best in education : Japan 🇯🇵, China 🇨🇳, Taiwan 🇹🇼, Hong Kong 🇭🇰, Korea 🇰🇷, Malaysia 🇲🇾, etc….
It's intriguing to imagine the changes Singapore has gone through over the years and how they’ve influenced both locals and expatriates! Looking forward for more of their reflections and experiences on everything!
Max and Alexander are some of the true foreign talents that respects and adapt to the local culture and that Singapore enthusiastically welcomes. Not those self entitled CASTE slinging contaminants that gravely pollute the city state from truly achieving super future city status. 😮😮😮
The meaning of "Expat Life" is where a company hire you to live in another country with all expenses paid including your children's education, accommodation, travel, family insurance, etc. Such Expat packages are very rare these days. If a foreigner in any country, doesn't have to be in Singapore, is not getting all these "perks" from your company, then you are basically an immigrant or just a foreigner-working-in-a-country. That's it.
Bah in your example this "expat" can & will be pulled at the beck & call of their employer. An expat is permanently relocated & choosing to stay somewhere else than their homeland.
@@Ghekko-kw3zz you described an immigrant, not an expat. Foreigners featured on MaxChernov videos are mostly migrant workers, not expats and a few immigrants.

The Indian stock market outperformed the world's richest investor Warren Buffett's company Berkshire Hathaway in terms of return in the last 25 years, an AMC company report said. Helios, an India focused Singapore-based asset management company, said in a report that the Nifty 500 index has given 12.56 per cent annual return as compared to 9.52 per cent by Berkshire Hathaway and that, too, in US Dollar terms between July 31, 1999 to July 31, 2024. The report further said, "During this period, India also had to face many challenges, which included the US sanctions imposed on India after the May 1998 nuclear bomb test and the Kargil war in 1999. The Indian markets also showed resilience during the coalition governments." There are many small mid cap mutual funds that have done over 20% CSGR over 20 years.

Singapore is incomparable with nearly any other country. To me it compares better with a small city or large town governed by a mayor or state governor. It’s much easier to control and maintain than almost every other country on earth, and has an advantage of being very young and the good fortune of being founded and governed by one family more or less. Comparing it to the UK for example is kinda like comparing an apple and a cucumber.
Most likely ppl who dun want to spend money at all. Driving a car out for meal or even leaving the house incurs cost so Singapore is concluded boring. "NO FRee things todo."
The social cohesion in Singapore is ‘artificial’ in the sense, it comes from deliberate decisions, policies and people agreeing to compromise. It is unnatural to say… I will tolerate, accept, maybe join the celebrations of our neighbours of another race and religion. We designed it deliberately from the way we live and study in the same place. But every now and then, some become racist and extremists… we have to keep reminding each other to be tolerant and accepting because it is so precious.
@ the govt said before it’s unnatural and in a way artificially created… while we’ve come a long way, it is only sustainable if we understand this is not natural to continue that conscious effort. Once we take it for granted, people forget and will start to exert maximum rights and space against each other and the system will be undone.
The real problem is the ballooning foreigners population now at almost 50% are foreigners while the locals fertility rate at 1.15% one of the lowest in the world which makes Singaporeans increasingly xenophobic.
@MaxChernov you missed what I meant. I mean sure with the time and/or money you could ,but not everyone does. And that's already added on to the fact that Singapore simply doesn't have those things (physically)
Strong public order laws keeps people in there place. The majority of folk I talk to would prefer to live in Malaysia where its still rough around the edges

30% of public secondary school pupils enrol in JCs. 25% of JC students get into NUS/NTU each cohort. This means that only 7.5% of secondary public schools pupils enter NUS/NTU. Therefore, not more than 3% of neighborhood school pupils qualify for both these national universities. And pupils qualify to register for elite secondary schools by getting excellent PSLE primary school grades. The rest of the neighborhood school cohorts(97%) end up in Singapore Poly or ITE. With starting median salary of S$2900 while the latest BTO 4room ranges from S$550-750k. This is the stark reality. Does a 3% probability to enter NUS/NTU look great? Is the school system that condemns children at PSLE to Singapore Poly the best in the world?
Not totally true. There are plenty who came from typical "neighbourhood" schools and still ended up in jc and NUS/NTU and they can also go to poly first and then NUS/NTU.
not everybody is Chinese. Chinese people are citizens of the country China.
