Do you know what the "four sacred beasts" on the streets of Singapore are? And some of them are usually only seen in zoos, but in Singapore, you can only enjoy the scenery on the streets!
The first: the large lizard.
Singapore's ecological environment is very good, and the protection of animals and plants is also very good; on the one hand, it improves the quality of life, on the other hand, it also provides an excellent living environment for other small animals.
The big lizard, nicknamed the "four-legged snake", haunts the grass and woods all year round; generally does not take the initiative to attack others, but we still have to keep a safe distance when we see it!
The second type: otters.
Their nickname is "Singapore Street Fighter"! Just listen to the name to see how arrogant they are in Singapore.
Here, when they cross the road in groups, the local traffic police will even take the initiative to open a road for them to pass; in addition, in Singapore, different otter groups are divided into "gangs" and "families".
There have been different otter groups and group fights before. They often haunt the pond, the sea and other places, and everyone has to be far away when they see it!
The third kind: pheasants.
What we are talking about here is not a domestic chicken, but a pure "pheasant" here. They haunt parks and woods all year round.
Since most of them depend on roadside omnivorous food, they don't grow much and look like they are malnourished; they appear as often in their daily lives as we do when we see pigeons.
The fourth kind: wild boar.
I never expected that wild boars would appear in such a beautiful and developed city as Singapore! Logically, they should be haunted in the desolate deep mountains and old forests!
However, I heard netizens studying in Singapore say that wild boars can be seen under the teaching building of the university; if you see them, don't provoke them! After all, people call it "wild boar"!
The way Singaporeans dry their clothes is also very "peculiar", but this is also a real choice, because in Singapore, 80% of people live in government-provided "HDB flats".
And most of these houses do not have balconies; how is the problem of residents drying clothes solved? They chose to install two beams on the periphery of the wall and hang the clothes directly when they needed to dry them.
In this way, on a sunny day, it creates a strange picture; but some families will choose to buy a washing machine that is integrated with drying, so which one do you think is more convenient?
The streets of Singapore can see a different kind of vending machine, it is not simply selling bottled drinks; people sell freshly squeezed orange juice!
Imagine being tired of shopping and quenching your thirst with a glass of natural additive-free orange juice; how pleasant it is, and how this model has been on the streets of Singapore as early as 2018.
I don't know when we will see such an "orange juice vending machine" in China? If it comes out, Xiao Jing will definitely taste it at the first time!
The price of cars in Singapore is several times the price of our domestic cars, take an ordinary Honda Fit, in our country only need more than 100,000 to win, and the same model to Singapore, is to sell for 400,000 yuan!
The reason for such a large difference in prices is that Singapore's land area is too small; the huge car ownership is too large for the country to bear, in order to reduce people's enthusiasm for buying cars;
The Singapore government has introduced a series of purchase restriction policies, in addition to increasing the price of cars, it is also very strict in the review and acquisition of driver's licenses.
The Singapore Driver's Licence Test has a 60% first pass rate, ranking fourth in the world in terms of difficulty!
The local people's environmental awareness is also very high, like the plastic packaging boxes that can be seen everywhere in our daily lives, which are almost invisible here; instead of them, they are more environmentally friendly paper packaging boxes.
Plus, when you walk down the local streets, you won't see any garbage; whether it's a bustling business district or a bustling snack street, it's so clean!
And not only the ground is clean, but even the garbage bins are as clean as new; this effect is the result of the joint efforts of local citizens and the government!
Receiving express delivery in Singapore is not our domestic express cabinet, pickup code, and courier station! The local delivery method is to deliver something to your doorstep, then take a picture of you and send you a text message.
Here, there is basically no situation where the courier is lost and others take it randomly; it is precisely because of such a good social environment that the courier brother operates like this!
There are three different ways to choose from a house in Singapore, the first of which is the "HDB flat" we mentioned above, which is a house built and designed by the government, which is built and sold to its citizens at a very low price.
A 90-square-meter house, the price is about 200w yuan; the second is the apartment, its supporting facilities are very complete, basically will be equipped with swimming pools and gyms, of course, the price is also very high.
Apartments with a slightly better location, the price is probably more than 1000w yuan; the third is a landed residence, equivalent to our domestic villa, in Singapore can live in such a house, can be described as non-rich or expensive!
If a Singaporean tells you that he has a landed home in Bukit Timah or Sentosa, it's the equivalent of a Beijinger telling you he has a courtyard within the Third Ring Road!
Singapore's currency – the New Coin is not paper, it's plastic! You can rinse it directly with water, or even lather it with hand sanitizer without breaking!
The advantage of this is that the old currency is dirty, take it out and wash it just like the new one; it also makes it more durable, waterproof, etc.; in fact, there is a convenient place, that is, no longer have to worry about the money being washed by the washing machine!
See more of Singapore's city scenery in the front, the following Xiaojing takes you to see how Singapore's countryside is! About 15 minutes away from the main island of Singapore, there is a place called Ubin Island.
It can be said to be one of the "most village" places in Singapore, the scenery here is mostly localized, falling leaves, log cabins can be seen everywhere, although it looks dirty and messy, but basically can not see the existence of modern garbage.
And when it comes to weekend breaks, there are many tourists on Ubin who rent bicycles to travel around the island; after all, it is only ten minutes away from the big city!
The Internet says that there are no mosquitoes in Singapore! This statement is slightly exaggerated, mosquitoes are still there, but they are rare and rare! Even if you open the door and window to sleep every night, you will still not be disturbed by mosquitoes.
Because the local government regularly kills mosquitoes in schools, communities and other surrounding areas every week, mosquito repellents such as mosquito coils and mosquito nets are basically invisible in Singapore.
In addition, when you come to Singapore, if you see white smoke billowing outside, don't be frightened and think that something is on fire. In fact, so much smoke is because it is fighting mosquitoes!
When Chinese people come to Singapore to work, what is its treatment and working environment? In fact, in Singapore, it is very convenient to communicate in our Mandarin, because two-thirds of the people here are Chinese.
In addition, the local salary treatment will generally come to about 10,000 yuan; and the level of living consumption in Singapore is not high, about the same as the consumption level of our domestic first-tier cities.
The requirements for knowing foreign languages are not high, so many compatriots and friends who want to come to Singapore for employment can still choose to work here! But the premise is to choose a reliable platform, after all, going out, personal safety is still very important!
