The Dom Returns

I'm back.

I've been away to Alice Springs and Singapore. Now I return to resume my blogging duties. Probably the biggest surprises of the week were:

(1) Singapore only has 4.3 million people. I've been there 3 times and always had the impression it was far bigger - perhaps it's just an impression you get when you ride the MRT. Note that all the people in Singapore I talked to put it between 3 and 4 million.

(2) Australia has a higher per capita GDP than Singapore. This again I find surprising, and given the cost of living in Oz is lower as well, I've given up my plans to move to a lower tax haven.
