Dhaka, Bangladesh
15th July 07
Ater nice short-trip in Singapore with Minyoung, arrived in Dhaka of Bangladesh around midnight.
Unless you're not in the field, it's very hard to understand the situation happened in there. Watching some phenomenon with an eve of traveler is totally different with one of local residents. I was lucky to learn another side of Singapore from my Korean friend Minyoung currently working in Singapore as a SAP consultant. She told me that local Singapore citizen feel that they're forfeited due to foreign residents. They also try to to live in nice house or luxury condominium but most of good, brand-new houses are much more easily possessed by foreigners. In other words, High demand on those house let the price level much expensive. It's easy to guess local residents who earn smaller salary than foreigners are not able to reach to the house they wanted. Naturally their complaint is getting increased. Singapore government also avoid the polarization between them but the problem is getting serious.
Singapore is no more the nation that I knew until just yesterday. That's why learing and experience is important.
