But American and Singapore ranking high is bizarre. For sure if you're Muslim in America and an expatriate you're in deep trouble. This is documented by millions of muslims killed by Americans alone in last few years. This is biggest crime in last 8 years in whole world!

Singapore can not offer high pay for expatriates unless you're an anglophone or westerner. It's deemed necessary for you to be able to drink alcohol, abandon Islam, praise everything American (in Singapore - you heard it right), behave just like the most anti Islamic pro american westerner you can think of before you can earn high sums.

In Singapore, racism against third world citizens like Bangladeshis (our own), other nations is widely supported, accepted and part of the norm. That's why you will never hear of a widely successful Bangladeshi in any walk of life in Singapore. Bangladeshis don't go to Singapore if they're well off nor do Singaporeans think too much of practising apartheid openly against Bangladeshis/other third world citizens.

To me this report carries little credibility due to some of these reasons. I know Singapore and America quite well from inside, there's no reason this report can carry much credibility! :x


I saw nothing in the so called report that specifically said their figures related to muslims.
You have one hell of a chip on your shoulder.

FF, blah blah blah is all I hear from you. I can't even be bothered to read your replies because you just write trash. You think you're so flippin' high and mighty.

My Emirati friends would think you're a complete loser you know! AT least they have a grip on reality.

And MuslimB, jeez you really do have issues don't you! I've never seen any issues in these countries! And of course it's always other people with the problem isn't it! It couldn't possibly be the way you act or are with people in these countries now could it. I get really tired of the woe is me attitude.

no one questions how great dubai to work as an expat if you are earning a pretty tidy sum,, but most 'expats' here include the laborers who have it hard, unlike hte better paid professions.

the survey is true in some sense but not entirely representative of the larger 'expat' population. unless we start using the word expat exclusively to highly skilled/paid professionals.

^ Exactly. So it led me to believe that the survey only interviewed the 'prominent' expats.
Maybe they interviewed a friend of mine who was a truck driver in his home country a year ago and is now working for a big local company as a senior manager. Hmmm.. I'll ask him.

And that's exactly the point. The 'majority' of 'expats' in the UAE are low income Asian workers. Now if they'd interviewed a cross section of these people, the outcome would have been very very different indeed.

before you included them in the low income class, did you ask them how much they use to make back home ? thats what the study is about you dumb as*se daaaa

Expat Existence, the first report in The Expat Explorer Series, ranked the top rated places to live based on expats’ living standards, an expat’s ability to earn and save, a country’s popularity (longevity), and the level of luxury experienced.


I don't think the survey is all about the comparison of earnings between what the expat used to earn back home and his current salary in the host country.
While it may be a factor, I don't see the most common UAE expat in the form of a store clerk, saleslady, and yes, laborer enjoying a level of luxury the survey mentioned. Either spend and get the littlest of 'luxury' but not save, or save a little but live a miserable life.

If only the survey clearly defined the criteria and the target cross-section of the expat population.

Pinoy, give it up, he doesn't get it. He'll never understand the fact that many of these people come and work here because they have little choice in their own countries, because there basically is no work.

LOOOOOOOL will you pay attention choco LOOOOOOOOL

What in hell this has to do with the survey ? are you retarded ? it's about the best destinations for work not why they left their countries , or me understanding the facts why they left theirs !

I realy don't care about the survey choco, what pisses me off is you denying anything good that comes out of this country even when a dam global organization made the study !!

Hey... the survey is probably indicative of the real scenario even though the sample size looks small. I guess even the so called 'Asian' expat also finds this place a preferred destination and thats why we have hoards flocking to this place.

FF... go find a job. damn.... from the filth and venom in your language you sound like a ....... ????

Firefingers? Find a job? You have to be kidding me! He's one of these incompetent guys who gets everyone else to do things for him because he lacks the mental capacity to do anything, and he certainly can't see any further than the end of his nose - HA!

well well well what do we have here ? another chocoholic like hummmmm ohhh well 2 aginst 1 fine.

I don't know what makes you guys more of an expert than a global organization ! the way I see it is that both of you are looser who couldn't keep up with your friends back home to find a descent job and came here seeking it.if so, I wouldn't take your thinking too serious and you can keep it for your self.

We own you and your countries , you guys are freaking out how fast we passing you, but hey that’s normal , we are expecting you dogs to park while we pass you by.

Ladies and gentlemen, time changes every thing , didn't you learn this in history and my advice to you is to keep up with these changes or go back to where you came from and live the shi*tty life you ones had.

We upgraded you and gave you a life you didn't dream of.

Least but not last I don't know why are you choco living here if you don't agree to any pricibles this country is standing own, or is money after all ?. Get lost both of you and pay attention to your work so you wont get ckicked out to your sshi*t hall you came from then you will both go back to 0 and start looking for a visit visa again.

Why should I get a job when I have you as my slaves.

See yaa.

You've got it all wrong! We're the ones using you! We come play about for a few years then leave again.

You're the reason many Emiratis have a bad name, because of your use and abuse attitude. You're greedy and don't care about anyone but yourself! But it's ok, in a few years you'll have killed yourselves off on the roads anyway. Either that or you'll end up with generations of retards because of the constant inbreeding - disgusting! Or being killed off by HIV/AIDS because of your love of hookers - don't deny it!

You're not giving us anything we didn't already have! I came here because my family is here thank you very much and they have been for years and years - so screw you!

HSBC should have been more specific with the target of their survey like maybe indicating "best places for non-muslim westerners"? :wink:

2155 expats across four continents is a bit too thin of a data base for the survey to hold any credibility in my opinion.


If pinoy means filipinos like it does in Singapore, my friend even filipinos are treated quite bad in singapore but not as bad as bangladeshis in my experience.

I agree with you such surveys have little credibility, and often have certain ulterior motives and target audience which they try to woo by publication of one sided and short sighted survey results.
