[I]s it true that higher income Singaporeans are less interested in inequality than lower income Singaporeans?
Based on the stereotype of the snobbish, elitist ‘high SES’ individual, one would think so. Yet a survey* RICE recently conducted with Milieu Insight, an independent research company, showed that a nearly equal percentage of Singaporeans across various income groups think that inequality is a problem.
The data is based on a survey of 2,325 Singaporeans between 18-60 years old, representative of the various monthly personal income groups in Singapore.
Out of these 2,325 Singaporeans polled across personal income groups, an overwhelming 92% feel that socio-economic inequality is a pressing issue.
