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

but i live in what is basically a city state atm

but its not run as well as singapore

tfw no stupid rural huizhou gf

Calling China rich isnt exactly true. Some people are rich but the majority of people are poor af, just not as poor as they were 20, years ago

The average monthly salary is less than 4,000 RMB a month

And Chinese are the rudest scum fuck bastards I've met through out all of Asia I've been to

Rich or poor

Malaysia had really cheap Uber, where all the drivers had clean cars, spoke ok English usually, drove really well, we're very polite and friendly etc

In China the drivers barely understand Chinese, drive like fucking maniacs, yell at you constantly, have dirty af cars, and honk every few seconds

here is driving to the airport in Malaysia

here is China the same day

I thought they were working on the smog problem?

aqicn kinda died down lately for a reason

They say they are

When our plane was landing, we thought we were still really high

Cause you can't see the ground cause of smog

Until about 10 seconds before you land

chink taxi drivers always tries to charge me double cause they have to wait in traffic to go back if they go to where I live

we always get told we are selfish for asking for them to do a u turn up the road so we dont have to cross the highway on foot

or sometimes they just straight up refuse
