        these day getting USA green card need only US$500k for the whole family, immediate approval, and 24 months later whole family naturalised, guaranteed capital return 5 years later…just factor in the dollar depreciation will do …


        Candadian is easier, last time heard is around C$350k, children below certain age get monthly cash allowances

        NZ recently tried open the floodgate for ??thousand families ? Filled up by SG citizens in no time …

        Philippines PR even easier …

        By contrast, it is not easy to get a PR status in China

            many parents just send a child there first, graduate and get PR, then apply whole family to become PR and move over, and other family members enjoy education at local rates liao

                family PR in SG is not as easy as in Canada or OZ...my class mate was born and bred in Sg, studied here too but due to mix up in 1965 did not get SG citizenship......had a hard time applying even for PR .......

                  Chenonceau:
                  My neighbour downstairs cooks curry very often. The divine smell wafts upwards into my study room and sends me running out to tapau North Indian naans and curries and tandooris. I rather think that the curries you get outside are nothing like those that Indians really cook at home. A pity.

                  Chenonceau, you should troop on over to your neighbour's, offer her some naan and hope she'll give you some of her homemade curry in return. πŸ™‚

                      In a way it's true, but it is true everywhere else too :)[/quote]Yap i agree FT is here to prop the lower strata so that the upper strata
                      can move up and with the opening of land parcels in the Marina financial area , the population will have to shoot up to cater for the many more
                      people needed to prop and support the economy.
                      SGians not having more babies where else you create the population
                      boom. With influx of FT you inadvertently create another strata of social
                      in-ept or :scratchhead:
                      Couple with armchair minister, you see the crack forming..........

                      Who's cooking Curry tonight ? if it just curry , kaboooooom so be it.....

                      I am in OT zone .............. :lightrod: :lightrod:

                        May I suggest that all foreigners who want to apply for PR/invited to apply for PR must go through this orientation program:

                        1. visit Little India-to soak in the smell of different spices and have curry for lunch & dinner for 7 days continously (apply to all PRC applicants)

                        2. smell and actually taste durians for 7 days continously. Each applicant must finish at least a durian (1 kg) ( apply to all nationalities)

                        -those who cannot complete the tests will not qualify for PR application
                        -those who past the test must sign an agreement and sunpa that they will not complain about their neighbours of the smell of curry and durians forever
                        :evil: :evil: :evil: :imcool:
