my brother has 5 yrs experience in IT and working as a software developer diyan sa makati earning 65k gross/mo. so peanut lang pala yun ano? compared sa singgapore kaya pala he told me lately na he is seriously considering a singapore job.

yes peanut talaga. isa ako sa makakapagpatunay na malalaki talaga ang salary ng mga IT professionals na pinoy dito. marami akong firends na IT dito and grabe lalaki ng sweldo. also, yung wife ng office mate ko is not a senior exceutive but she is earnng sgd7.5k a month so more or less php250k yan.

another thing, my wife is working in a remittance center here and mostly ang malalaking magpadala sa kanla ay nasa IT fields.

isa pang plus point dito is yung maliit na tax.

OT. maliit ang tax sa sweldo sa singapore kasi lahat naman ng binibili mo merun ng GST. And (I think) they don't get a budget na for the CPF (central provident fund or yung SSS/Pag-ibig counterpart) from your salary.

if thats our thinking then we shouldnt wonder nor complain why Philippines is this or that... citizens are always asking what the country can do for them not what they can do for the country...

in a more positive sense, ok lang naman na pumunta sila sa ibang bansa. I disagree that there is brain drain. baby factory ang Pilipinas eh, there will always be others who will replace them.

in fact, mas ok pa nga eh kasi if those who stay uplifts our country (which is I believe inevitable na, count 5-10 more years and we'll beat singapore), the very same people who left will come back to enjoy greener pastures here.

parang na-double kara kagad ang Singapore, talo natin kagad sila economically tapos sila naman makaka-experience ng brain drain sabay.

i agree with the baby factory part.

our country's high birth rate gives us a steady supply of unskilled labor.

But highly skilled labor is harder to replace.

ako rin same ang belief kung baga 'shake-out' lang yun nangyayari now. i just feel bad if people complain yet they do nothing.

Ang masaklap diyan eh, we might have to buy softwares abroad written by Filipinos at higher prices.

Better business revenues for Singapore. Tayo naman dito sa Pinas...gastos ng gatos, as if mayaman tayo.

+1. I agree with you.
