I can't let the observation about standards of living (posted from Oz)
slip past without comment.

For comparison, in the UK, a BMW 5-Series costs about US$60,000. In
Singapore, it costs around US?250,000 - they have a massive tax to deter car
ownership.

And guess which Car manufacturer sells more cars than any other in
Singapore ? ......... Mercedes-Benz.

In Singapore, they have an average standard of living considerably higher
than the USA and all of Europe. And Australia.

And they can't afford to buy non-pirated software ?
