itt: PATRIOTISM RAGE!!!

sure, and malaysia doesn't need singaporean ports to ship our goods like we did in the 50s and 60s.

even your king lee saw the decline. enjoy your efforts to convert singapore into a 'tourism destination'.

singapore's need for water tech is higher than malaysia's and naturallly they'd spend more on it. it's like norwegians spending more on blizzard control tech than us. if we spent much on snow-related technologies, people'll call us insane. same case here.

in any case, even if we did develop the tech, her market is still singapore and all the jobs would be based there. it's not about where she earns that money, it's where the money is spent. if she earns th money in singapore and spends it in malaysia, then it's the same as if she stayed here. if she earned it in malaysia and spent in on italian cars, then the end benefit is to the italians, that sort of thing.
