Fandi Ahmad: 我要去Batam退休

福瑞迪

连他也承认了



FANDI AHMAD WANTS TO RETIRE IN BATAM BECAUSE SINGAPORE HAS BECOME TOO EXPENSIVE

Singapore is no longer the place to call home, not even for homegrown talent and soccer wonder Fandi Ahmad.

“I want to retire in Batam," he said.

"It’s just a 45-minute ferry ride back to Singapore if I get bored, and I’m an Indonesian PR. I like the kampungs there with their coconut trees. Singapore has no kampungs anymore."

Fandi also said, "and it’s getting so expensive (in Singapore)!”

Fandi said this in an interview for the 8 Days magazine’s 27 November 2014 issue.

Indeed, not one to mince his words, Fandi has said what many Singaporeans truly feel.

The Economist has earlier this year ranked Singapore as the most expensive city in the world.

And Fandi might actually be better off moving to Indonesia than having to pay for the high prices here and be like many Singaporeans who cannot earn enough to survive.

But yet, a question often asked, why should Singaporeans have to migrate in order to seek a better life? Why not change things here? Or advocate to the government for change?

Perhaps this is an obvious question.

If it is any consolation, even if Fandi leaves Singapore, his presence has been cast in wax in Singapore. Fans who miss him can still go to the Madame Tussauds' Singapore museum in Sentosa to see a replica of him.

Not the real deal, but at least it is not going to be too far from home, until the fans decide to migrate as well.

Seeing how Fandi was cast aside in his later years as Singapore's golden boy - he was passed over for a coaching job in Singapore - it might be better for Fandi to do what feels right for himself and find home where the heart is.

Unless of course, change comes to Singapore.

他以前很多钱，可惜被人骗去做生意骗光。
幸好他儿子在欧洲踢球，不然去batam也没钱。
本地人逃出去，外面人硬要来磨练

其实新加坡除了食住行贵，其他东西真的贵吗？如果有收入食不是问题。有政府组屋的跟不在话下。

既然退休了， 留在波小也只是徒然霸占了一间90平方公尺HDB和一张MRT的椅子... 没有了生产力，这种福利你还值得拥有吗？
