Don't say that, Japan is pretty expensive, Korea as well depending on what you do. Hong Kong isn't poor as well

Just be friendly and people will be friendly. It's not about money or race

japan isn't se asia

We weren't speaking of SEA

hong kong and korea aren't se

we're talking about asia, aren't we?

oh

asia in general

Noone is limiting it to SEA here

then rich is south korea, japan and china

plus singapore

Also Brunei is rich in SEA

everyone else is broke

That's not true, Taiwan has similar salaries of Germany for professionals

taiwan is basically china/usa bitch

they are a bargining chip

That's not an argument wtf

what does that have to do with anything? the basis of your argument was that they were unhospitable because they were poor? <:thonk:288060975775612929>

true

sorry there

so se asia is poor shit hole, and north asia is rich

Taiwan is quite far south

Brunei is also very south and very rich

Why do you need to generalize it in the first place?

brunei and singapore are both se but they are city state countries

i would love to live in singapore myself

I also had the impression that parts of malaysia like KL were reasonably well off

Malaysia isn't poor either. Malaysian cities have a quite high living standard

singapore seems like it would get boring fast

how so ?

Singapore really gets boring after a week

??

You can't hop over to Malaysia / Indonesia without long waiting lines and passport controls. You're stuck in a city

just seems like sterile business city to me with a washed down fusion of asian and western cultures

On a positive note, flying is really cheap

Flying to Thailand for a weekend on a 40$ round trip to fuck a lot of cheap hookers for example

Lots of coworkers of mine went to Singapore since we have an exchange program and we had to move all money of US clients outside of Europe. So we chose Singapore

And usually all they talked about was going to poor countries every weekend to be degenerates

lol

thats awesome
