Singapore vs Canada

Two countries with completely different styles

One is located at the equator and is hot all year round

"Singapore's security and Asian cuisine beat Canada's"

One near the Arctic Circle

Most of the time it is covered in snow and ice

"Singapore's security and Asian cuisine beat Canada's"

A country with only more than 700 square kilometers

It is a small red dot on the map

One area ranks second in the world

It is 10,000 times that of Singapore

One has the second largest population density in the world

It's bustling everywhere

One is sparsely populated

You can't see the second house within ten miles of the land

I'm used to living in Singapore

Suddenly moved to Canada to live

How would it feel?

Hot Mom interviewed a young sister who moved to Canada from Singapore, let's hear her feelings!

Why did you move to Canada?

Singapore's pension environment is too poor, the place is too small, life is monotonous, do not want to be old and forced to work by the government.

Going from Singapore to Canada, is there anything you're not used to in terms of life?

Compared to Singapore, there is so little food in Canada! Traditional Chinese ingredients such as black-bone chicken can only be purchased in limited supermarkets. Meals at out-of-the-house restaurants are gratuated and prices are higher than in Singapore.

Eat delicious grilled fish in Singapore

Once I bought a chicken dumpling tempura bento, which shocked me from the appearance to the taste! It's really incomparable to Singapore's. Asian food in North America is terrible!

So how do you feel in terms of the overall social environment and sense of security?

Singapore's security spike Canada and even the world's major countries are too many, the security of the world's top good, the famous "Women's Charter" to ensure the safety of all girls, harassment even verbal whistle will be punished. Therefore, the status of women is at the top level in Singapore, and girls cannot be flogged for breaking the law. Don't be afraid to go out at 1 p.m. in Singapore, the lights are bright everywhere outside, and cameras are everywhere.

It's not the same in Canada. Once I was in Calgary at night on the subway home from the airport at 10 and a half store and almost got scared half to death! All the way to the subway, all kinds of strange people, non-mainstream hippies with nails, drunken tramps with half-ass exposed, addicts who snort marijuana in public... I was so scared that I almost lost my soul!

What is the difference between the two countries in terms of work and income?

Singapore has a high income from work, employers can help employees pay 17% of the provident fund every month, plus their own provident fund, they can fully use the provident fund to repay the mortgage every month. Singapore's low individual tax is one of the most impactful points I have come to Canada. The annual salary and tax of ordinary jobs in Singapore is only 2-3,000, and in Canada, it is about 20,000.

Are houses expensive in Canada?

Toronto Vancouver obviously has so much land, but the house price and bank interest rate are so high, and the cost performance of rent and sale is not ideal. It is incomparable with the HDB in Singapore.

What is the difference between living in Singapore and living in Canada as a Chinese? Will it be discriminated against?

Singapore has a high proportion of Chinese, although there are many other races, but it is not as exaggerated as Canada, and the black pressure of a whole area may be all African-American. It should be said that it is more diversified!

Will it be more convenient to see a doctor in Canada than in Singapore?

Canada, do not dare to get sick, it is said that the queue will have to wait for a long time. I've only been here for half a year, and I haven't met it yet, so I hope I don't.

What is your favorite place in Canada?

The favorite thing is that the climate is good, although it is not all year round, but it is still much cooler than the perennial heat in Singapore. If you have the conditions, it is ideal to run on both sides every year, haha!

And Canadian cars are still much cheaper, after all, the world's most expensive tin, no country can compare with Singapore.

Canada is much freer than Singapore, unlike Singapore, where fines are imposed everywhere, and fine city's name is not a waste of time.

Canada is an agricultural country, so agricultural products are still very rich, unlike Singapore, everything has to be imported, Malaysia a decree down, Singapore's chickens are out of stock. This is still relatively guaranteed in Canada.

Which do you think is more suitable for Chinese children in education in the two countries?

I don't have children yet, so I don't have much to say. But in my opinion, children are suitable for living in Singapore before the age of 5, after all, the climate is stable, and after the age of 5, the children's activities are larger and their hobbies are wider, and they are more suitable for Canada, which has more resources.

In terms of consumption in the two countries, which are cheaper and which are more expensive?

Cheaper in Canada: cars, free medical treatment, food in the supermarket, and large packages (more than 3-4 times more than Singapore). There is also fruit, meat, and especially beef cheap.

Cheap in Singapore: Low taxes, cheap Chinese food, a wide variety of you can eat. The restaurant has good service and good prices. The cost of washing hair and decorating is cheaper than in Canada. Monthly phone plans and home wifi packages are cheaper than in Canada. Monthly condominium administration fees and annual local taxes are cheaper than in Canada.

The two countries have their own advantages in all aspects, and if you want to compare, you can only say which is more suitable for each different person.

So as the little sister said, you still have to experience it yourself, and after experiencing it, you know that it is not suitable for yourself. Immigration is the interweaving of rationality and sensibility, individual feelings vary greatly, once you have made a choice, cherish the present!
