And Singapore's population is perfect for TPG. Absolutely perfect.

Gross Domestic Product (GDP) at purchasing power parity per capita according to the IMF (2015):
#3 Singapore - $85,382 [beats the US, UAE, Switzerland, Hong Kong, Netherlands, Sweden]
#16 Australia - $47,644

Gross Domestic Product (GDP) at purchasing power parity per capita according to the World Bank (2015):
#3 Singapore - $85,382
#19 Australia - $45,501

Singapore's population is now close to 5.7 million - all of which live in the city state of Singapore. Have you visited Singapore?

Compare it to Sydney, Australia's most populous metropolitan city.

Singapore's population 5.7 million in 719 km²
Sydney's population 4.9 million in in 12,368 km²

So, Singapore has more people, living in 5.8% of living space of Metropolitan Sydney. And their people are roughly 2 times richer. There fore, ??? = Profit.

The risk is not if the fundamentals are there to carve up the market, snatch some market share and make a profit. The major risk lies with execution. Execute it poorly and they might not fare so well.

Singaporeans are a shrewd and demanding people. However, consumer rights are very poor in Asian countries in general. Customer service is appalling in Asian countries. If TPG can offer a great product at the level of customer service they currently offer to Aussies, they will do well in Singapore.

I live in Singapore since 2012.

Do you know how much I pay for 1 Gigabit per second internet here? S$49.99 per month.

I didn't misspell it. GIGABIT.

This country has the best internet in the whole freaking world. And it is sold dirt cheap.

If TPG wants to come to this country peddling 3rd rate Australian internet here, they will get eaten alive.
