Aw too bad, I was going to suggest my TL as an example. But with a POD in 1912 it wouldn't qualify.Er slow down there sport I was thinking mainly along the line of post-WWII,
South Korea and Singapore are First World by any reasonable definition of the term, whether your criterion is sheer GDP or the Human Development Index. There's nothing subjective about that.Beauty is in an eye of beholder, but I don't consider S. Korea or Singapore truly First World. Ask me again in 20 years, though...
Personally, I've been to both Vancouver and Singapore, and I can tell you that in terms of development, there isn't much to tell the two places apart. Well, maybe Singapore is cleaner.
