| Survey: Singapore ranked top in the list of Asian cities for expatriates The latest annual survey by HR consultancy Mercer reviews that Singapore is the most attractive Asia city for expatriates to live and work in. The Republic was ranked in the 33rd position. The upper positions are dominated by European, American and Australasian cities. Cities were ranked by Mercer staff, using New York as the benchmark with a rating of 100, based on a set of 39 quality of life criteria Singapore scored 101, the same as last year. This means the quality of life here is regarded as better than in New York. Singapore had maintained its appeal despite a difficult year with SARS, while cities in Japan, along with Kuala Lumpur, had dropped in the rankings. Kuala Lumpur dropped from 73rd to 75th. The next best performing Asian city outside Japan was Hong Kong, which managed to hold onto its No 70 ranking. Bangkok was well down the list at No 102, and Jakarta fared even worse, at 139th spot. |
