Can improve English; can improve mandarin; good universities; easily adapt (similar to Hong Kong as it is a Chinese community); the weather is fine (the whole year is hot, you don't need to bring with a lot of clothes); near Hong Kong (air fare not expensive); a safe country (much safer than UK, Australia, USA, Canada, New Zealand); very little or even no discrimination.

新加坡是一個家長式統治的國家, 我曾經兩次自由行方式到此國家旅行, 深深體會到什麼叫家長式, 我對這國家絕無好感, 相反回來後我更懂珍惜香港的自由

What you talk about is their political issue. However, we are now talking about education.

It is clear that Singapore has very good universities. Regarding safety, it is much better than other English speaking countries. It can also improve students' English and Mandarin.

I have no interest in their political system, but just want to say that it is a good place for education. I've been to Singapore many times over the past ten years, but I have still talked about their political issues with their local people. Perhaps, it is not wise to talk this through media in Singapore. However, the situation is much better than mainland China. So, I am sure that you do not agree that our Hong Kong students should study in mainland China, don't you?

Perhaps you can tell us more about how you "深深體會到什麼叫家長式".

這裡是討論區，對不同的意見應互相包容。動不動大動肝火，對大家都沒有好處。
樓主開此題，都是想聽聽各方意見，你說你的，我說我的，若樓主就某點子希望我詳述，我會PM他或她。

多謝兩位的回應，

我自己未去過新加坡，聽說此國法規較嚴，但人民好似比較單純。

我見到新加坡有留學獎學金可以考，當然英文要有一定程度，所以我唔多資金時，認為呢個係出外留學的機會

樓主你說得對，「但人民好似比較單純」，處事亦十分重原則，至於是否算是故執，就見仁見智了。

他們很信任政府，他們很以身為新加坡人為榮。可能是「國民教育」的成功吧。

他們的Singlish亦是舉世知明的。

都聽說過他們的口音比較重，但在語句或文法上又如何呢？

新加坡人的服從性很強, 當權者說一, 人民不敢說二。為何會這樣呢? 很明顯是跟他們的教育有著密切的關係, 這令人擔心到底他們的教育方針是怎樣的呢? 能夠陪養具批判性的思想嗎? 讀書不等於識多幾隻字, 亦不等於學好兩文三語, 教育是陪養一些具獨立思巧能力, 懂得分是非黑白, 敢於對強權說「不」的人。

我認識兩位年青人去左新加坡(大學)讀設計。
獨立自主，ok架~

家長式，或Singlish，在大學層次相信已不是大問題。

The academic standard of Singapore Us is as good as that of Hong Kong Us.

Don't you think jumping to a conclusion about a country with two free and easy trips is a little extreme for your case?  Perhaps you would like to share what you have encountered during these trips.  First of all, I am not here to penalise but to share my thoughts from a Singaporean point of view.  I am a Singaporean who lives in Hong Kong for 8 years now.  It is true that Singapore is not as free and liberal as Hong Kong.  Government controls life line of the country.  Apart from the popular and successful housing benefits, there are other well beings like medical benefits, education, even daily expenses like price control of food etc.  Do you know a bowl of fishball noodles costs the same price for the past decade?  In Hong Kong, no way.  None of the people I know in Singapore cannot afford a flat and the quality of our government subsidised HDB flats is way better than the public housing in Hong Kong.  It's give and take.  Exactly like what you are thinking.  I feel so grateful that I am a Singaporean after staying in Hong Kong all these years.  I love and treasure my country even more now.  The main point is, you are not the fishes swimming in the pool.  How do you know the fishes are not happy?  Having said that, I think you have your rights to like or not to like something, but I hope to see more concrete arguments than just a vague unsubstantiated remarks.

與其說我們新加坡人民不敢說“不”，倒不如說我們很相信自己的政府，也很滿意我們所擁有的。 我不覺得這和獨立思考能力或分辨是非黑白的能力有關，這只是國民團結，愛國的表現。 以一個家庭為例，難道一個家一定要吵吵鬧鬧才能培育出出色的孩子？ 我倒是擔心我們的下一代會缺乏競爭性，因為我們過得太安逸了。 不過這和我們現在討論的無關。  對想到新加坡讀書的朋友更是無關。

不過我也覺得香港朋友確實沒有去新加坡讀書的必要，因為香港有更出色的大學。
