I feel bro SV is right in his approach. He prepared fellow bros interested in VB (WL or whatever) for the worst. But things might not be as bad as he had described.
Bad People everywhere also have. SG, VN, or whereever in the world.
Lazy People everywhere also have. SG also got a lot. At least 10% of taxi drivers are good examples
One thing i strongly agree with Bro SV is, we Singaporean, i meant the majority of us, due to our protected environment and our education system, we tend to lose out to people from 3rd world countries where dog eat dog strongest survive in terms of scheming etc.
You have your own eyes to see and make judgement yourself whether this relationship is feasible. You make the wrong judgement you have only yourself to blame as bros here had already prepared you for the worst situation.
