How do you attract and retain foreign talents in singapore? ( through education and medical field)?
Singapore has done a great deal in its attempt to attract foreign talents. Therefore, Are there any other methods that can be implemented to attract FTs?
(New Methods Implied in the Medical Field [Universities, Education, Facilities, technology, teaching skills, research outlets, etc])
Thanks!

Attracting foreigners is just like any marriage transaction. The other party looks at the benefits and sacrifices, compare it against other potential mates and makes the decision accordingly. For professionals, quality of living is important. Singapore has no 4 seasons, unbearably hot and humid, lacks critical mass for intellectual pursuits or meeting like minded people. No amount of money will keep them for long except for the 3rd rates ones. We are more likely to attract FTrash, opportunists, 4th seed sportwomen. Are there hope still? Yes. By not deceiving ourselves and giving ourselves labels like world class number one, calling Holland Village as the new Bohemia.
