A Chinese Entrepreneur Magazine entitled Xiananyang's ebb: I can't rent a house, can't afford to eat, the elite escapes from Singapore's long article.The water is hot "!

The article uses three cases to depict the situation where Singapore's rent and catering prices have soared in the past year. As a result, the middle class that originally wanted to settle in Singapore had to make a decision to "escape" and wrote in a prominent position:"Singapore is no longer a place where the middle class promises."

Singapore has won "the city with the highest living expenses in the world" for many years, especially in the past two years.

For foreign populations, rent is an important part of life cost. In the past two years, it has increased by 34%, which has tied with New York to the world's first.One of the interviewees Wang Feng mentioned that the last straw that overwhelmed him was that the landlord increased the rent from 5,000 yuan to 7,000 yuan; the other interviewee also complained that the 50 square meters of one -bedroom room he rented, even if the location was remote, the location was remote.At least 4,000 yuan.

But when the author shared this rental situation with the local friends group, he immediately fry it.

They pointed out: The rent of 7,000 yuan is definitely a luxury apartment in the urban area. On the one hand, he has to live in a high -end apartment and complain about the expensive rent., This salary in first -tier cities such as Shanghai, can not live in high -standard luxury apartments. Why do you think it is enough to be in Singapore?Do you know that more than 80 % of the local people live in government housing?

In fact, you can find it when you open the local rental application. If the government housing is rented, even in the central business district, the rent of two rooms and one living room is only 4,000 yuan.The article has omitted this important information.

More coincidentally, the three respondents who want to escape in the article are web3 and blockchain practitioners.Think of Singapore's official attitude towards cryptocurrencies has changed sharply in the past six months, and the industry environment has changed dramatically.The real reason they want to escape.

Not to mention, the article concludes the conclusion that "escape from Singapore has become a new trend", but it does not provide any data support.From the perspective of the interviewees, it is not so much that the middle class escapes, it is better to say that web3 escapes.

The

The article that the web3 group encountered in the local area was extended to the entire "middle -class elite" to escape, and the reason was only attributed to the local price.As a serious publication of official media background, it seems too hasty under this conclusion.

In the past two years, a wave of Chinese immigrants has ushered in, and the Chinese media also continuously exported articles such as "regret the middle class that escape from Singapore" and "Singapore is no longer suitable for middle class". On the one hand, it creates topics to obtain traffic.Yes, trying to guide public opinion wind direction and prevent capital and talent outflow.In the same situation, you can see China's public opinion trend when Australia or Canadian immigrants earlier.

China's middle -class group is growing rapidly. When they have a stronger economic foundation and stronger adaptability, and domestic resources or living models are inconsistent with their needs, they will naturally consider moving abroad.

Japan, South Korea, India, Hong Kong, and even Singapore have similar experiences. This is a common phenomenon of a society when experiencing structural transformation, which is worthy of analysis.However, as a country that emphasizes "big nations", it really does not need to be regarded as a flood beast, but also uses public opinion.
