A local beer in a bar will normally be around 60k IDR so $3-4, wine is more expensive generally in SEA you'll normally pay around 90-100k IDR per glass.

The population of London at the last census was still 60% British born. The difference between 2000 is that the figure was 60% white British.

He's not saying London doesn't have enough British people, he's saying it doesn't have enough white people in it.

That and saying it was heartwarming to see a Tommy Robinson march who represents the most extreme fringe of British right wing politics.


If anyone is interested Gruf Rhys (from Super Furry Animals) made a film, Separado!, where he tried to track down his Welsh family that migrated to Patagonia.

I believe the Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand ones are linked too, I noticed last time I went over to Malaysia that they could accept the Singapore PayNow payments too.

I think Singapore has a pretty good experience worked out now, the immigration is automated just with an iris scan.

Additionally moving security to the gate rather than having a single security point for all flights also makes the wait here shorter and more importantly predictable.

If I'm just taking a cabin bag I always arrive 35-40 minutes before a flight and have had no trouble with time, normally enough time to grab a coffee too before boarding.


Out of interest, from a US point of view since I'm not there, is this going to end up as a relatively damp squib in the very near future now we have access to 5G and all the competition there.

Last year I was able to abandon completely my broadband provider and now have two sims, one for a home router and one for a mobile router with pretty much unlimited data.

There is so much competition in the 5G mobile space that the ability of these older closed market providers over cable/fiber is surely going to be a thing of the past very soon and thus the need to enforce legal neutrality will fade?


Net neutrality is more about backhaul and peering. None of that goes away with more competition at the subscriber level. In fact, it become far more significant.


As I understand it, historically in the US many people have only had access to one broadband provider.

So an American couldn't move to a different broadband provider if their current provider made Netflix slow.

On the other hand, if 5G technology had such great performance and coverage that every American had a choice of 10-15 different ISPs, when one ISP slowed down Netflix they could simply change providers.

That might make it less problematic for some ISPs to make Netflix slow.


I wouldn't count on true competition to last.


This is awesome, thanks for the link.
