    Imma be frank and just say it out since no one else has said it yet, probably because they chose not to voice it out: This video really just confirms what us, locals, already know about our social standing.
    I really wonder if there are indeed equal opportunities for locals to be in the top leadership positions of big companies or do we not have local talents capable enough?
    Not trying to sow any negative sentiments but when the disparity comes across so obviously in a video pertaining livelihoods and income earning power which was filmed at one of the most expensive places of highest societal status to live in our country, I think it is fair to be vocal about it, especially when the video also seems to come across as a little "tone-deaf" to a longstanding problem that has been consistently ignored by the ones who are supposed to be serving our best interests.

      I would disagree. You are not comparing between equivalent polulations. You compare all Singaporeans between expats who already have been successful enough and have acquired the expertise so their companies see it valuable to move them to Singapore. Or with entrepreneurs who chose Singapore as their base to run their company.
      Besides, any foreigner needs to make more money than the average local. Otherwise, he wouldn't get the Employment Pass, i.e. there is a pre-selection.
      So, there is a certain survivorship bias if you try to make statistical inferences from this street poll.

    • @heavymetalrox268
      @heavymetalrox268 11 місяців тому +1

      I mean the Disparity is because expats are only brought in if they are of high societal standing, else they cannot sustain themselves here? You are comparing a small microcosm of expats to locals.

    Generally, most Singaporeans are not very comfortable about people asking them their income. They will just give you a neither here nor there kind of answer when you pressed on. It happened to me when I was in Northern China. Almost half of the people I met asked me my annual income. In my mind, is it important as a friend or what has it gotten to do with you? We don’t judge people with that. On a few occasions, I just told them S$20-30k. They didn’t believed it. Actually, that already given them a reply.
