Talking about Starbucks...
I can only say it's cheap here. Not the case of dollar for dollar. In M'sia, earn erm... for eg. RM3000 pay RM20+- for a starbucks, that's 0.67% of monthly salary. In Singapore, take 10% off the salary, around 2700SGD pay 7SGD+- for a starbucks, that's 0.26%. In short, someone working in SG can buy 1.5 cups more starbucks with the same portion of their salary (in %)

Not hard to see why most starbucks in SG is full with people all time. But I do see some starbucks in more hidden areas with much less people. Better environment to have coffee break.
Thinking that way is wrong. You should think... Earn more before kena fire/retrench/replaced by the elites/talents. Kena fire/retrench only find jalan back M'sia

Talking about coffee, was it Papa Rich or some Malaysia kedai kopi in Singapore selling dollar to ringgit for a cup of coffee (SGD10 = RM10)

Anyone here knows a good and affordable place to learn mandarin besides community center?
Didn't know you can learn Mandarin in the community center (you meant the Resident Association (RA)). What other activities ? only for PR / SG citizens only ?
