But tax rates in SG is significantly lower, especially for the higher income earners making >300k per annum.
As physicians, we are fairly mobile as far as moving to different cities to work.

You're telling me the only cities in Oz are Sydney and Melbourne? Go look at other cities. Even Perth, Brisbane. Even the locations around Melbourne eg Geelong, Mornington, Frankston. They are not too bad places to live. Oz is big,

And for Canada there are other places like Edmonton, Calgary, Saskatoon, Regina etc.

It is all relative of course. It is all in the heart really.

But remember Singapore is Singapore city and country. That's it. Cost of cars and houses one of the highest IN THE WORLD. No other options within the country. It is it.

But it is majority asian. Supposedly non racist (depends what race you are). And safe.

Good luck!
