Our combined income of $420k pa in S'porean translates to RM1.1M pa! Big ticket items like houses and cars are so much cheaper there. Food prices too. But here, we are really struggling to save enough for retirement.

Then are you willing to give up what you have here to go over there?

Do you know how dangerous it can be over there? Do you dare to risk your wife and daughter's safety over there?

It's not that Singaporeans don't know, but we would rather be poor folks here than to risk our loved ones getting raped, or gangraped and burnt to death in other countries.
