Singapore doesn't have a collapsing culture. The Anglosphere does.
In Singapore the government owns their - incredibly profitable - port, along with almost all other private and commercial real estate, and most of the businesses. If we nationalised most of our economy we could have real low income taxes too.
Yes, Danyl. We should also change the name to the Democratic People's Republic of New Zealand (DPRNZ), the North Korea of the South Pacific.
Whilst I like Singapore very much it is effectively a Government dictatorship, and quietly very class and racially conscious.
You step out of line at your peril.
Try dropping a piece of paper in the street and see what happens.
Could not happen in New Zealand as we are a socially undiscipline country.
