Okay, this is quite an unusual promotional video, touting the health care and medical services industry in Singapore. I would never have thought to target international visitors and tourism by highlighting medicine, but if high quality specialists and surgeons are hard to find, that's as good a reason as any to take a personal trip or holiday - although not my idea of an adventure!

The latest movie from Michael Moore called "Sicko" certainly highlights the differences between the US system and those found in Canada and Europe. As global population grows, life spans increase and health care costs skyrockets, I guess finding a suitable country to move to and live in becomes a serious consideration, so perhaps Singapore is ahead of the curve.
