Quality of Life


Singapore is amongst one of the best places to live in. Mercer ranked Singapore 1st for its quality of life in Asia (Mercer Human Resource Consulting, Worldwide Quality of Living Index 2007), as well as Asia’s No. 1 place to live, work and play (Mercer Human Resource Consulting 2005-2006).

Singapore is one of the most stable societies in Asia. The city fuses modernity with tradition while both are celebrated in equal parts. Its society is multi-racial, multi-religion and multi-lingual.

This is reflected through the ethnic mix of Chinese, Malays, Indians, Eurasians and smaller minority groups who make up its population of 4.4 million.

The relatively low crime rate offers foreign professionals a unique opportunity to live in ease alongside the local community without having to pay a premium for security.

A choice of housing exists for professionals in Singapore to suit individual lifestyles and budgets. Rental apartments can be found in public housing developments, equipped conveniently with its own shopping and entertainment hub, education and healthcare facilities. Private properties, available for rent or purchase, varies from condominiums, to houses and bungalows across various locations on the island.

Living conditions in Singapore are among the best in Asia, with state-of-the-art facilities for education, shopping, sports and recreation. The Global Country Brand Index ranked Singapore as the world’s 2nd for its shopping, nightlife and dining.
