You would be competition amongst all the cheap labour imported from Bangladesh, India, Mainland China etc. The property management company which deals with repairs on our 1 year old condo has brought in people from Bangladesh......working long hours for little pay.

No such thing as craftmanship from what I can see in Singapore.... conco buildings erected cheaply and quickly with shoddy workmanship, then demolished 15-20 years later for a new development....

Can't see how you'd get a visa, Simon - unless you had a lot of money to invest, set up your own company, and employed lots of people.

Not having a dig at you specifically but people seem to think Singapore is an easy place to get into. It's not.
