Singapore is a very attractive place. It is clean, safe and vibrant. However, the cost of living is very high compared to other cities in the region. In particular, housing, transport and healthcare are expensive. On the other hand, there are low taxes, education is affordable, and there are regular retail sales to entice consumers.

Singapore is a place for tourism, business, healthcare. Favorable climate make it unique. Even airport is a tourist attraction. The people of Singapore ae friendly and we love our country. in Singapore you can find Indians, Chinese and malay people as a one family SG UNITED! And that shows we accept and welcome people from any part of the world.

Consider the cost of living and a potential language barrier. Singapore is one of the most expensive cities to live in and as a foreigner, one does not receive subsidies for basic amenities such as healthcare. Additionally, despite English being the first language of most Singaporeans, a foreigner might not understand the variation of English that most mainlanders speak.

Contrary to popular belief, Singapore is not all that expensive a place, that is if you know where to spend your money right. The idea of moving to Singapore comes with several exciting prospects along with it. The ones that stand out is the multicultural aspect of this nation. Along with culture comes the variety of traditional cuisine one might never get sick of.

Below are some key points that a person moving to Singapore should know:
a. Get tourist visa first and then apply for long term visit pass.
b. There are HDBs condos available for rent, usually HDBs have lower rent.
c. Start applying for jobs by holding long term visit pass.
d. Healthcare is expensive so it is better to get insurance.
