"On education, more than half of the respondents across all income levels — and especially those from the lower and middle income groups — said that they prefer an education system that is “less competitive and more holistic”, over one that is “globally competitive and academically rigorous”. Also, the survey found that Singaporeans, in particular those with a higher education level, “appeared to prefer a more inclusive education system”. The preference for a less competitive environment appears to extend to the workplace. When presented with a choice between career advancement and a more comfortable pace of life, Singaporeans generally saw pace of life as more important relative to career pursuits. Singaporeans between the ages of 35 and 69, and those who are married with children, were most likely to choose a more comfortable pace of life as their preference in the survey."
