Default where to next?

inspired by all the middle east will it/won't it fail chat of late (and still coming off the wonderful post-op drugs) thought i would ask the bored for some advice.

my reasons for becoming an expat was originally based on the idea that there's few better ways to experience a place than to live and work in it. a couple of countries and years later i find myself in the magic kingdom. i'll probably do a tour of duty here of a couple of years then shall be scratching my head as to where to go next. personally, have no family committments or obligations, no debt, no country that i'm tied to, my stock in trade is IT and have about 10x years under my belt, so, my question to the bored, where, given that situation, would you think of going next?

p.s. i know it's a bit strange to be looking at the next thing when have only just started this one, but, why not start thinking about it? (besides, am bloody bored! )

Singapore is supposed to be a better place if you have a family. Hong Kong better if you are single.

plan is to stay in Singapore a couple of years and then move on to Aus or back over to Europe.
