Singapore

An educational mecca for budget-conscious tourists, who are looking for some cheap, cool math books for their kids whose math grades have hardly improved from using locally published textbooks.

Although Singapore is arguably a first-class economy with a third-rate educational publishing industry—which often condones Machiavellian math practices—however, its wallet-friendly math K-12 titles are sought after by homeschoolers in many developed and developing countries.

Singapore

A “tuition nation” where your grade six exam score more or less determines your future—the fear of failing and not getting into a school of choice reduces your chances of a decent or quality education, because the top or popular schools have “better teachers” and more resources.

Because of its high-stakes exams, Singapore is probably the world’s most stressful country for a child to experience a normal childhood—and she will be at a disadvantage if her parents can’t afford to send her for private tuition.

Singapore Black Friday

An imported American sales event that lures budget-conscious Singaporeans to move beyond window shopping into buying crap they don’t need at discounted prices, which could serve as some kind of stress therapy for overworked or unhappy workers.

From Halloween to Valentine’s Day to Singapore Black Friday, local businesses never fail to leverage on the attractions of foreign festivals, holidays, or events to profiteer from gullible citizens.

jam sanga

A woman's used sanitary pad/panty-liner.
