Happiness0

Interesting site below. Singapore ranks about 30 out of 95.

I’m guessing since it’s above the 66 percentile, our government would consider that a good result. Especially since we’re convincing ahead of Zimbabwe.

Strangely, even taking into account the chaos in Indonesia in the late 90’s, the typical Indonesian seems about as happy with their lives as a typical Singaporean living in a “stable and safe haven”.

Interesting fact is that the survey was from 1995 - 2005. I’m wondering if it was updated with more recent data, how the score would defer.

Even without the latest results, the trend over the years seem to be pretty clear.

So much for having a whole class government.
