Hi Max, I really love that you seldom interrupt your interviewees , allowing them to fully and comprehensively express themselves. Well done! Firm subscriber here.
Another great interview and a super-interesting interviewee with lots of great insights into the systems in Singapore, the US and elsewhere. What I really appreciate is not just the quality of the interviewees in this channel but also the fact that Max asks good questions and allows them to speak without interruption. This may seem a simple thing to do, but trust me, I’ve seen too many interviews where the interviewer constantly interrupts his/her guest by asking follow-up questions or adding their two cents worth to the comments being made. These interviewers have an agenda and love the sound of their own voice. Not the case with Max, so for that, thumbs up to you.
His background is very similar to myself, moved here with family just a few months ago from New York. Thank you Max for interviewing such a diverse group of people living in Singapore!
This scientist is very pragmatic and have similar values like us Singaporeans! I hope his kids do well in school and are able to broaden their perspectives in US university in future.
1. ___________________ When Lee Kuan Yew became Prime Minister, the country had likely to have accumulated economic benefits from its 140 years under British colonial rule prior to that. The key points are: - As a major trading entrepôt strategically located along key maritime trade routes, Singapore generated significant economic revenues and profits from its role in facilitating the flow of goods, commodities, and resources between Europe, India, and China. - Over the 140 years of British colonial control, Singapore was able to leverage its geographic advantages and build up its port infrastructure, trade facilitation services, and position as a regional commercial hub. - This allowed Singapore to accrue substantial economic resources and capital during the colonial period, even if its economy remained relatively undiversified and dependent on the entrepôt trading model. - When Lee Kuan Yew took over as Prime Minister in 1959, he was able to draw upon this existing economic foundation established under the British to help kickstart Singapore's rapid industrialization and economic transformation. So Singapore had likely taken for granted the economic resources from its long history as a British colony and trading hub. It provided an important starting point for the country's subsequent economic development but most Singapore politician seems seldom to about .. !!! ..... If you curious this history behind Singapore current narrative, please let me know and leave your comments below .......
If your kids have a good solid foundation in English(grammar, tenses, spelling etc), don't worry too much about Singlish. They speak it to be part of the group. They know it's colloquial. Their teachers will make sure of that. 😊
The primary schools here are top notch. But we parents have to become their personal tutors too. It’s wonderful that Rick is aware of accepting and respecting different ethnicities into our lives. And how languages can open many doors. The world today is open to many possibilities and if our children integrate easily with most ppl regardless of of race, language etc this itself is the best skill and gift for them. Communication with others is key to a successful life. Great interview with good pointers. I love the phrase integrated diversity….👍👍🌺
what a fresh perspective and strong testimony to our SG school system. Local SG parents whose kids didn't get their top choice in the July P1 registration should find comfort in this sharing :)
Rick seems like such a lovely human being. Unassuming, thoughtful and considerate, respectful, super humble, fair, appreciative, balanced, forward thinking, .... so many more positive attributes can be added.
They're not even thinking about PR you think they want be sgrean? They only wan make use of sg until they got something better. Somemore plainly say no benefit of pr atm. 🙄

No, because the next generation of Singaporeans will mainly be the offspring of less educated Singaporeans. Most people who have thought carefully about having Singaporean children will have chosen to go childfree.
I had heard that if your eldest child gets into a primary school, then a place will always be found for their siblings; but we're lucky enough to be PR so perhaps this doesn't apply if you're not a citizen or PR.
I am experiencing the same, foreigners, elder kid goes to local school , younger one in nursery, hope to get PR otherwise transportation between two different local schools could be a total nightmare
My daughter goes to a school in banglore that follows Singapore math as the school has branches in Singapore.. but trust me Indian math is way to advanced .. my daughter at 8 already knows division but Singapore math is only at addition and subtraction... It's a new school for her . She went to a icse school before and she finds Singapore math super easy
Don't worry too much about your children speaking in singlish, so long as her academic English is good she can code switch easily, and once she immerse herself in an English enviroment she'll adjust very quickly
I feel that some expats or PR with families stayed and worked in Singapore for the sake of their children to get an early till high school education in Singapore due to its good education system. Then they would return to their home countries in the US or elsewhere and send their children to colleges/universities in the US or other prominent universities.
This scientist is a smart man in terms of choosing where to be at different times. Call it careful planning or seeking the best of both worlds at any one time. Part of him is contradicting and part confusing. Not saying he or his family are not contributing to us. Right or wrong, it's just my opinion. After watching the video, one could understandingly questions where his loyalty lies...
It may not be a question of where his loyalty lies. As a father of two, he has to consider the "good and bad" for his children's future. Cannot blame him for thinking of doing the best for his family. It's difficult being a parent. Only those who are parents will really understand.
Coming from a huge country with many opportunities like the USA or China, it's going to be very hard to fully commit to a tiny country like Singapore. Singapore has the "strongest" passport on rankings, but that's only for tourism.
It's the cost factor that prevents Sg parents from sending their kids overseas for college. They'd only do that if their kids can't get into local unis.
definitely safe in Singapore, no-nonsense like protests, drug addicts roaming the street, looting of retail outlets, innocent people getting shot etc which are very common in US. At the end of the day, u want your family to be safe wherever they are.
Singapore being very small and not so nice weather..needs to add some more land ..best option would be to lease Malaysia for a 1000 years ..on the lines of China Hongkong deal .
the not so reputable ones ...dazhong , lianhua , im a parent of 6 year olds now and listening to a lot of parents talking about good and not so good schools , and these 2 names pop up all the time for the not so good schools
Great video as usual. As an audio person, I would leave in a bit of room noise/ambience. It feels awkward listening on headphones with just the voices audible with no resonance of the space you are in.
Agree. The problem is that we caught some copyright protected songs playing there and had to remove them with AI which also eats out the ambient noise.
@@MaxChernov I would recommend using some form of royalty-free music in the background if that happens and maybe just ambient noise you've recorded to replace what was taken out. The AI or silencing of the background is quite uncomfortable. Just a tip from an industry pro :)
To add; law and order issues in some pretty well known cities, homeless issues, medical service & costs issues, pharmaceutical costs issues, tax issues, food issues, to name some.
Seems like mixed marriage couples especially with Chinese women loves to settle here is Singapore. Local Chinese men are redundant ? Or all migrating off . Trend or government directives.
i like singapore too as a singaporean but unfortunately many benefits that come with being a citizen are for heterosexual couples. as a member of the LGBT community who plans to start a family, it sucks to feel that my country will never truly feel like an accepting home for myself and my community.
@@eyhtwozed2606 that must have pleased you immensely. It is ok, China is restructuring the economy from low costs to high technology manufacturing. Of course the effort of US to restrain China has dampened economic growth somewhat. Hey, 5% GDP growth for 1H 2024 is very good considering that the property sector bubble has burst and it was one-third of GDP in previous years. China deliberately burst the property bubble before it gets even worst. Having said that, their trade surplus everyday, yes everyday is getting close to 3 US$ billion and the US trade deficit daily is 2 US$ billion. On top of that the US budget deficit is also growing. China has no such problems, and no homeless problems that we see in the US. So, on balance, it is doing extremely well. Don’t you agree?

There is no sense in living in a country with your family when the government doesn't recognize dual citizenship. Your life can be ruined one day. All that talk about schools, etc., you can get the same approach somewhere else with a few additional tutors, and it's not worth it. Try explaining to your child when you need to leave the country because of a visa issue. Needless to say, racism and modern slavery in Singapore are real, but you cannot talk about them openly or you will be kicked out of the country. It's a utopia for sure. Moreover, what's the point of pushing your kids and ruining their childhood for the sake of government goals? We see the same problem in Korea and China, where parents are obsessed with kids' grades and give them many psychological problems later.
i and my wife at age 55 earing 3500 have amassed 350k minimum inn cpf together 1milion ...if we were to renounce our citizenship its 1 million in cash ..that we can settle in many country ...75% od sg citizen have this cpf or more ..the reson they dont migrate is the trust in sg way iof life
U r like saying we can hv 2 wives or vice versa...be committed. Period. If u think the pasture is greener at the other end then go...we don't need uncommitted citizens... citizenship is scared...for a small country like Singapore
@@user-dc1oq8ym6o Your logic is false, as is the internet slang you used in your commentary. Why not use proper English with commas and sentences? When you think logically, you compare apples to apples and oranges to oranges. Comparing the rules for traditional marriage, such as in Islamic law where men can have up to four wives, is not relevant to the case of having dual citizenship or more, as you are comparing immigration rules. When you say, "we don’t need uncommitted citizens" - who are "we"? Local people who prefer the dictatorship of the ruling family without the option of free elections, any criticism of the government, unprotected migrants from India or the Philippines, and illegal drug selling in places where the city does not have cameras while the police cover it? When immigrants come to the country, they are supposed to pay taxes and commit. When the government does not allow second citizenship, it means they want to control people as property and not allow them to escape from their rules. If you have two places to live and can stand up and tell someone who is doing something inappropriate, it will stop the other side to some extent. People must have a choice and not be government property. Period.
@@user-dc1oq8ym6o I am not from China 🇨🇳 to consider Singapore is a better place. I am from India and Singapore is no way matching to India. Singapore may have skyscrapers and many modern things but the city country is lifeless.
Don’t worry about the children speaking Singlish. As long as they’ve good foundation in the English language, they can code switch easily.
yep, that's correct!
I know a Frenchman who is married to a Singaporean. His daughter is about 13 years old and can speak English, French and Chinese.
Really awesome
I'm in the same exact boat as him. I moved almost the same time he did from the U.S. to Singapore. Don't regret it at all. My kids are thriving.

Give that man a PR! A Harvard Phd and a good understanding of the local education system would make him a good choice..
There are other factors to consider in. If a PhD is the only criteria to become get a PR, Singapore would plainly be a university campus at that point
He didn't apply
No.
Agility.
He is already a PR. He is thinking about converting to SG citizen 😂
