--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Overheard two uneducated bachelors talking.


This could be reason why uneducated single singaporean take a foreign wife.

Some male singaporean, single and stayed with their parent hired maid to look after their aged parent while he has to work 7 days a week to earn enough $$ to pay for maid salary and levy.

Now with the proposal to allow maid to have one off day a week, these uneducated single male singaporean may let go their maid and marry a vietnam wife to look after their parent and do house work, in addition, he can get free paik piak every night.

Let me do some costing to justify what I said.

Married vietnam wife cost : $10,000 and stay with him forever, can paik piak every night and save on taxi fare and prostitute expenses every month.

Hire maid cost $510 x 24 (2 yrs contract) =$12,240 + insurance+bond+agency fee+ some uncertainty will the maid steal or runaway.

His breakeven is hire maid for 20 months and thereafter net profit all the way.

He try not to have kid so incur less expenses in future. Once their parent passed away, he sold his hdb flat and moved to vietnam for retirement because cost of living there very cheap.

So I foresee the foreign bride agency business will bloom and massive import of foreign wife in near future.

Hope mom will not impose coe or levy on foreign wife like what we did to the car or maid here respectively.

Saw this at one of our local forum.Wonder if 1 day this person who really marry a viet girl will treat her like a spouse,a maid,prostitue or a investment product for him to retire in vietnam
