Singapore has among the lowest crime rates in the world. I strongly advise you don't bring too much cannabis there if you don't want a noose around your neck. As for alcohol, Singapore has very low taxes, but alcohol is among the exceptions. It pickles liver and contributes to domestic disputes, etc. all costing police and doctors money. Someone has to pay for it and it won't be the taxpayer. Cannabis has twice as much tar as tobacco. Alcohol pickles the liver. Gambling can impoverish people and destroy families and so burden the welfare system in no time flat.
Go live there , you appear to have such an admiration .Remember Singapore is little more then a city state with a relatively homogenous population not the second largest country with a small multicultural population .

Correction. Singapore has four official languages: English, Chinese, Malay, and Tamil. Then you have people there from all over the world. Over 30% of the working population there is not even Singaporean. Hardly homogeneous. We could learn from them.
