    Just a tip since I live in Singapore, when you are in Sum Lim Square and you want to buy and tech things do not go and buy from the stores on the first and second stories as all of their prices are OVER PRICED because it where all the tourist mainly explore. from the fourth floor onwards the prices are all pretty decent

Try making a living here and being a citizen here then you will know.
      Im not saying SG is cheap as well ,but hey your not the only one who's having hard time so there are way worst countries honestly.
      Im curios do you guys started importing the Mustang GT yet the 5.0 V8 , Im wondering what the price there if you do.
      In USD it's 33K $ , we are selling for RM 500K here. Do the math, the difference is 100K $

      Don Mega lol nice joke. The us economy is $19 trillion per year, with 350,000,000 people. China's is $16 trillion per year with nearly 1.4 billion people. That's an average of $400 a fucking month per person...I'm 17 and have a minimumm wage job and make that in one week.

      Yes, but his claim was that the US and EU are dying. Maybe here not dying dying, but sure aren't growing as explosively as some of these emerging economies.
      If China's already near the US's GDP right now, with most of the country still undeveloped and people undereducated, they're poised to exceed every other global economy by manifolds if even 75% of their human and real estate resources reach their full potential.
      That's why companies are scrambling to penetrate the Chinese market, while the CCP is clamping down or outright shutting them out. Mean while, China is investing a ton into Africa. While China itself is growing, it's grooming it's very own pet continent to do all it's dirty work for them, not to mention all these untapped natural resources.
      The world will be a drastically different place in less than a century, my friend.
