Singapore is 4th Most Liveable City in Asia

Singapore is the 4th most livable city in Asia, just behind Osaka, Tokyo and Hong Kong. This ranking takes into consideration on things like stability, health care, culture and environment, education and infrastructure. Then I am puzzled why Singapore is behind Hong Kong. Anyway, globally it is ranked 52. Not something to be very proud of. Melbourne is top again and this is fourth year in a row. Four Australian cities made it to the top 10. This looks very attractive to those who are planning to migrate there. Well, you may welcome that idea but they probably don't welcome you. Don't like what you hear but this is the sad reality if you are of Asian decent. I have seen so many of my friends just sticking among fellow Asians in Australia, UK, etc. So those with a hong kong accent tend to  have hong kong accent despite staying in a western country. That's because they tend to mix with the same ethnic type. Not many has successfully integrate in those communities.

Downward trend for COE

If you are planning to change your aging car or to buy your dream car, hold your horses! This is because more COEs will be available when more cars are disgregistered. This is because cars bought between 2004 and 2008 are reaching end of their 10 year lifespan. This is the period where the most number of COEs were available back then. Trend will continue until 2018. It may dip below $60,000 by next year and $45,000 in the next 3 years. This is according to the transport management expert Park Byung Joon. Well, let's see if he's right.

Singapore is 3rd most sleep deprived city

This is definitely true for me. Recent article from the press says that Singapore is the 3rd most sleep deprived city, just behind Tokyo and Seoul. We sleep on average of 6 hours 32 minutes. What is the main reason? It is probably because of our long working hours, kids, etc. You can only find time after you tug the kids to bed so it eats into your sleeping time. Well, for me i am simply a night owl since young.
