I've seen how the economic landscape in Singapore and abroad evolve and I chart my plan accordingly.
Down to personal level, the name of the game is this:
I can be extremely horrible. How mean I am depends on how much of a lesson I think the person needs.
Put it this way, I've no issue encouraging my enemies to take their life, should it arise.
Life is cheap to me. I do not appreciate life.
Take it for what it is.

Well, we now know one way NOT to use, if you are trying to engage people in meaningful conversation.
Well I'll admit I was having a childish dig at your obvious professional immaturity. Once again, you react with sweeping statements about a country you claim to have been away from for a long time. Do you know where the best STEM students in Singapore are? Some of them are busy doing internships in silicon valley, starting their own companies, graduating early and already gaining valuable experience, etc. They are not posters on a salary forum. Why compare yourself with the bottom 90% and claim yourself so superior? The only reason is to boost your little ego.
"enemies"... Hahahah ahahah. I have pretty much nothing to say about the rest of your post. At this point I'm wondering if you're a WUM or just a mega asshole. Please restrain yourself from telling the nice people in Australia that you come from Singapore.

You have lost a lot of points here with your immaturity and quickness to wish ill of a people you hardly know and concluded from just a few unpleasant exchanges that all deserve your disgust.
You will do well to note that what you posted on the internet remains for a long time, and you can't really conceal your identity.

Were you across the table from me, you'll be on your mental guard instead of thinking I'm pretentious.
Thread no longer serves it's purpose.

My advice for you is not to return to Singapore.
As you have already seen for yourself, Singapore is littered with morons like the posters you have interacted with. Good luck!

It reflects on your maturity and thought level.
I was reading your post and was about to offer some suggestions but I concluded it will be a waste of my time.
But at least, I hope that you will be mature enough to take what I wrote above as feedback to reflect on.

Social skills? What good are humans. Are they not nothing more than proxy. Nothing more than chess pieces on a chess board.
You speak of social skills as though it is highly prized. It is highly prized among those who requires their egos to be stroked.
If you have been living and working in Singapore, I suggest stepping out and and witnessing how highly prized candidates with strong quantitative skills are viewed. In the states and in the European unions, candidates with strong quantitative skills from fields as such engineering, mathematics, computer science and physics find employment across all areas and especially in the technical and quantitative side of the finance sector.
Even persons with actuarial skills are highly prized.
It is only in Singapore you see candidates graduating with finance degrees with weak quantitative skills and hoping to enter the finance sector where 'real' work is being done.
I have long realise such issues to be unique to the economic landscape in Singapore. Far too few sectors but with a glut of graduates in the same field; business, accounting, law and engineering.
Make it? Only Singaporeans are holding on to the mentality of 'making it'. To me, 'making it' does not exists in my worldview. You either enjoy what you're doing or you slog your miserable life for money.
Terrible bashing culture in Singapore. I used to sympathise with Singaporeans but these days you people disgust me and it certainly is in my hope that Singaporeans face more competition to their demise. A necessary evil is pertinent.
It is only in this tiny island that one sees persons unwilling to move abroad to sell their skills.
All these meaningless bashing and competition. I live my life fine abroad knowing the industries and sector abroad are far more diverse than what is in Singapore and am willing to sell my skills abroad where there is a global shortage of persons with STEM skills.
You fear foreign competition. If you do, you take your skills abroad to where there is a shortage to sell them.
In 20 years, you ought to fear automation of jobs.
