Yes i understood in Australia they have hefty taxes on the people ,
but u have to see what kind of return u have ....
What kind of prices for their housing ?
What kind of prcies for their cars ?
What kind of prices for their houses of what size ?
What kind of medical benefits u have .
In Singapore , once u kena heart attack , Medisave can swept away by just one surgery .
In Australia , everything as long as u are sick , government will dealth with it . FOC !!!!
As long as u are a citizen of Australia , when u are sick , there is no class group , what first class what 2nd class ... nothing , dun see too much Straits Times . All the same .
taxes paid the same , benefits the same .
Just cannot be bother about what other see u .
Just like our FT here , they are here working , they know we dun like them , but they just work here .
Totally ignore what and how we see them .
Given to 40% taxes and health taken care of ......... vs ........... Singapore type of lifestyle , with expensive healthcare ......... i opt for Australia health care .
