thanks for your service Koala!
Full respect for her!

Thank you koala for contributing to Singapore defence â€ïž. Local and volunteer Singapore armed forces personnel will stand together united))

Congratulations Ms Koala. You found where you feel is home đ
I love her attitude towards her life and having a peace and joyful soul most of the time
just wanna say thanks to Ms Koala for this interview
She is truly a positive person
Honestly, i am sure its like 1 in a million where we can see a solo traveller covered more than 190 countries. Got to give it to her!!! Kudos đđđđđđ
đđđđȘđȘđȘđ
Thank u đ hope to see you 2 of my channels too đ„°đš
Thank you for your service in singapore ma'am.

Hi Max,
I have full respect for this Lady Koala.
Dennis. đšđšđ«¶đ»
Miss Koala is an amazing woman! Nice to see her in your channel too
Yes indeed!
Thank u đ hope to see you 2 of my channels too đ„°đš
I respect Koala. She quit her last job because her last job was not happy that she joined NS. She appreciates the peace and efficiency Singapore has offered to her. And she is a female! She is able to prove she is better than some of the guys.
She got laid off, not quit.
Her last employer was not happy that she joined NS? How come? Care to share?
@@kwpf They felt it is taking off her time and effort away from her work.
@@rocketsteel Laid off or quit, she has the courage to carry on the NS despite the company displeasure. Not everyone can do that.
Joining the army is a logical thought process for her to potentially help obtain a Citizenship. Given her age, I would imagine it's quite difficult for her to get an SC, assuming she loves Singapore and would like to settle here. I also don't think she's married , so it would make sense why she joins the army especially if she's laid off.
Two famous persons appeared together!
đđđȘđžđŹ

Thank you Koala for volunteering with the SAF but I'm not sure that I agree on your comments that you did "all the things that the NS people would do". Your induction course is a 2-weeks stay-in training. Mine was over 52 weeks long. You enjoyed your training while some from my units self-terminated.
I suspect it took MINDEF a year to get back to you partly because of overseas background checks. A locally-born female applicant would get a response way faster.
I have nothing but respect for U as a grateful person which many lacks Thank You for loving Singapore.đđ»
Aww Thank u đ hope to see you 2 of my channels too đ„°đš
Max love ur videos ..As a US doctor who visited Singapore recently from Florida (it was hot in Singapore still ) and loved it a lot with my wife and kid ..Wondered if u had any medical professionals like doctors who moved to Singapore that u interviewed or will interview âŠand how it varies from their home country ..Would love to watch that âŠKeep up the great content
I know a doctor working at our government hospital who was originally from the UK.
Thank you very much for interviewing her, Mr. Max đđââïž My wish is finally granted â€â€â€
Haha đ«¶đ»đš
Iâm proud of Koala đ
Well done, I also check her vlogs on Singapore living. Someone who had been to 190 countries knows something about which country is safe and a good place to call home.
đ«¶đ»đšthanks for supporting Max and me
Ms Koala is so well travelled her description of different types of country is pretty spot on.
I fully agree with her, Singapore is the best place to be!! (I also have travelled all over the world)
It's not even a real country. It's sort of a Walt Disney park, a bigger park than usual, of course.
Singapore, Luxembourg, San Marino, the AUE, Qatar, etc. these are artificially created Athens-like city-states, from some eclectic congregations of very rich individuals and corporations.... most don't produce any thing on their own; and all of them depend on the sweats, tears, and suffering of extremely EXPLOITED FOREIGN workers ("guest workers") to baby sit their kids, to cook for them, to wipe their elderly's butts, to build for them, etc.
Real countries are the messy, big ones that may STRUGGLE on many fronts but which are able to grow most or all of their own foods, produce their own teachers, plumbers, doctors, engineers, etc... real countries --- as opposed to Disneyland types of big theme parks ---- are those able to build big & small factories & companies, able to invent technologies & construct or manufacture computers, chips, missiles & cars & planes & satellites, etc.
@@kiabtoomlauj6249 The fact u took your time to write such a long comment clearly showed that u are too jealous of Singapoređđ€Why do u bother if Singapore is big or small country??đClearly u arenât happy with ur own country, thatâs why u canât stand whatever Singapore has been offering to the worldâ€â€â€
HAHAHA, What makes u think Singapore canât & dont produce our own teacher, lawyer, doctor,,engineer, banker etc? Singapore is such an unique country that is able to produce TOP notch brilliant students & intelligent ppl to run the country too!! đžđŹđžđŹSingapore students also ALWAYS TOPPED IN THE WORLD FOR INTELLIGENCE,READING, MATH & SCIENCE. Thatâs why Singapore is WELL KNOWN for that & been ranked MOST intelligent country for many yrs!!đđNONE of those countries u mentioned are considered intelligent countries EXCEPT Singapore!!â€So, are u awake now or still living in diff planet?đ
What guest workers? U mean those ppl come to work in Singapore are all doing FOR FREE?đđ€ŁLMAO.. So when they do cooking, cleaning, building houses etc all are considered as âintolerableâ chores for them? đ€Łđ€ŁOh Wow ..Oh ya so they must be so stupid to work in Singapore for HIGHER salary & their country âactuallyâ can provide âmoreâ opportunity for them to workđ€đ€..WowâŠu are so clever to think this way, bravo to uđđSo everyone else so stupid except u can tell that by giving them jobs in Singapore is called exploiting them?? HAHAHAđ€Łđ€Ł
Have u actually talked to the workers? Who invited them to come to Singapore? Hello? Excuse me, they all come to Singapore voluntarily & many would pay to come to Singapore cos they know SG can provide the income they can NEVER dream of having back home, that explains why average foreigners work in Singapore for 10-20 yrs, some even 30yrs cos they LUV TO WORK IN SINGAPORE & for as long as they can!! There are so many countries in this world, they can choose to work elsewhere too if they want but they chose Singapore!! Nobody pointing gun at them, so what the fcuk is wrong with u by twisting fact that we are exploiting them?? Are they working for free in Singapore?? đExploiting my beautiful a*ss, u jealous piece of sh*tâŠđ„°
Singapore is such a systematic & well run country that even takes care of foreigners with proper laws that help protect their safety too, so why the fxck u put us the same level as those other countries esp comparing us to the middle eastern countries??!! Are we muslim country governed by Muslim laws?? If u are being exploited by them thatâs ur problem, donât come here & start accusing Singapore is doing the same as them. Go get a better life pls in your own REAL LOUSY country.đ„° Thatâs real country for u HAHAHAâ€
@@kiabtoomlauj6249
Agree
do all Singaporeans act like her ?
It doesn't matter say Singapore is the best country, because she is on duty in Singapore.
but calling other countries bad is a rude
@@adijanuardea1582 Seems like you dont know how to read English. He never said that other countries are bad. Though he rightly pointed out that a few small countries are Artificial places and are a concentrated hub of some rich people. Have you ever thought why Singaporeans are always happy to go outside the country ?
@@tango_gru
It seems like you don't know what a 'calling' is đ
Wow... 193 countries! I can only spend my lifetime dreaming about seeing maybe 20% of that!
Lucky you, i have been abroad 3 times during my life. And if i am in my mid 50's
@randar1969 haha yes I guess I ought to be grateful for what I have rather than be sorry for what I have not. Thanks.
Haha I think u can do it đš
Thanks max for sharing. đđ
Awesome mam .. love your interview đđ great achievement visiting 193 counties
Ms Koala is such an inspiration for me as a woman â€
Wish u all the best to be offered the citizenship! Much respect.

Her english accent is more Singaporean than American now. Kudos for her joining the Singapore armed forces.
Curious about her background, seems that English is not her mother tongue.
Her English sounded like a Hong Konger
she looks like Chinese/Southeast Asian, like Michelle Yeoh
Lol. No. Sound like china or hongkong.
@@yiming99 You're right. English is her 1st language, not her mother tongue. There's no concept of "mother tongue" in the US. That's a Singaporean thing.
Thank You Max for this interview. â€
Ms Koala is such a worldly, insightful person. I love how she could instantly respond to your questions on which is the country that is most.. Like she knew the world at the back of her hand. Mad respect for the choices she made in her life and also for serving the country.
Awww Thank u đ hope to see you 2 of my channels too đ„°đš
So far she is fortunate. All the best.
She joining The Singapore Armed Forces Volunteer Corps is a uniformed volunteer auxiliary branch of the Singapore Armed Forces also NOT as a regular.
thats why i wondered how come foreigner can join regular army..
Yes. It's better to be clear about SAFVC. It's true the training is real tough for all, not only females, no doubt about it, but no need to be ambiguous.
Whatever is a contribution to Singapore we have to appreciate.
@@shadowj3311It still wonât make these foreigners one of us.
Hi Max and KK: Thank you for making the video. Absolutely love it. Great content- Max! Especially for KK, you made us and yourself proud to be a Singaporean. Great job in serving the armed forces. It can be exciting- all good. Sincerely, Golden State resident admiring the Yosemite Waterfalls and enjoying Napa Valley.

Fun! Thank you all for supporting our channels đšđ«¶đ»đžđŹđ
Love Singapore. Had a great time there. Iâm the opposite of her. US is where I feel at home. We have problems but the landscape and little nuance make it worth it.
Back when I was doing my NS, there was an Australian and an Indonesian in my batch. The Indonesian fella don't even know what National service is. He just applied for PR and got an enlistment letter.
She doesn't sound like she was born in America though
She sounds like she is from China or Hong Kong. Probably move to US & got a citizenship & now she has decided she wants a Singapore citizenship.
@@ln6593 China probably. She doesn't have a HK accent.
@@jsurfin1 This is how American Hong Konger sounds like. czcams.com/video/ZaKuW_lhIy8/video.html

Thank You Koala u share many great things about NS service ..I wish my two daughters to joint NS after what I'm hearing from your point of view..Thank You again..gbu
Youâre welcome! Btw I joined SAF volunteer corps not NS. Thank u đ hope to see you 2 of my channels too đ„°đš
Love her name, Ms Koala :-)
Ms Koala ? Yea I can imagine how a Koala can adapt to Singapore . When people are living in condos and coming from overseas ... They surely have got themselves well covered ... Which is a far cry from those who were born here . I think people can resonate with those
she is so unique đ
She went to 106 countries and she is in the army.
Hmm, something suspicious. Is she some kind of James Bond?
Jane Bond, not James Bondđ
You are brainwashed by the American 1962 The Longest Day plus the British 1953 James Bond that US & UK as No. 1
she's back!!
Your USP is finding and interviewing intersting people.. just keep finding them and talking them .
She doesnât have an American accent at all. She speaks English with Chinese accent. Since she served the Singaporean army, her US citizenship could/should be revoked per the citizenship laws in the USA
That's fantastic for her! Otherwise it costs $5000 in govt fees, tens of thousands in legal fees, 25%-50% of your net worth, and takes years to shake off horrid US citizenship, the worst in the world which is the only one that taxes you all over the earth wherever you go - and has the most negative image of all nationalities.
Dammit, I should have thought of that as an easier, cheaper way to renounce the hellish US citizenship before.
Nothing great to be an american. Some americans are also giving up their american citizenship to be Singaporeans.
3K - 5K americans leave and renounce the US every month now. They're all the successul ppl, leaving behind the high US crime & taxes. The US govt is hiding this fact. Also, most of the brightest Chinese and Asians are fleeing the US due to rampant US racism and fear for their lives. It's the biggest brain drain in human history. The US is finished!
She is cool!!
Great personality & Great talent, thanks đ
Thank u đ hope to see you 2 of my channels too đ„°đš
prettiest soldier in singapore
Come to Ang mo kio, l will treat you to all our local delights
What are the local delights in Ang mo kio?
It would also be nice if they would interview "itchyboots" (Her name is Noraly) another amazing solo world traveler that rides her bike everywhere or perhaps "Eva zu Beck" with her overlanding around the world too. đ
Hey Max, can you do some videos or find some expats frkm Australia / NZ and living in Singapore / Malaysia please
Sure but I actually had a lot of Australians on my channel already
@@MaxChernov oh really? I will check some of your old videos to find some
hi koala thank you for serving in the SAFVC!
Thank u đ hope to see you 2 of my channels too đ„°đš
Her accent is definitely more Singaporean than American
She is Chinese ethnicity, and has obviously not spent her early years in the USA
Maybe she has a Singaporean boyfriend, got her Singaporean accent through kisses with him
Joesph Schooling enlisted in 2022 too. Hope to see him at Worlds Masters Championships in 2025 as it is easy to get there from San Francisco. Had Worlds at Stanford in 2006, but US Masters not equipped to host such a huge event. Wow she went to Columbia. Itâs good to be a an Ivy Leaguer as one is less impressed by people from Ivy League schools. A lot of them went to prep schools like Philips Exeter. Feeling depressed that I didnât even know about this route. I swim to shake off these negative thoughts. Traveling is such a pain.
Good interview and conversation. I love it. Very good Video. Good job Koala and Max.. !!! đâșïžđđ
Iâm glad that you enjoyed our conversation!
You should interview/collab with Satshya Tharien she is a Indian youtuber/insta based in Singapore. Maybe she can give a glimpse between the two countries?
I was wondering.....when Kola will be in your channel... Hehe
She walks the talk. She does not whine like so many guys
kaolaâ€
fan of Koala and Max â€â€
Thank you! I had a great chat with Max. He made great videos !
Great video! Absolutely love Ms Koala đ Solo female traveller to Gabon, Egypt and Brazil? She's probably braver and has more street smarts than most SAF officers (including the Generals!!) đđ
Haha Thank u đ hope to see you 2 of my channels too đ„°đš
Where was she from originally?
I saw that photo of a girl wearing the uniform, she is so cool đ only now I know who she is after watching this video. Thank you âșïž
She is wearing a beautifully embroidered yellow dress of cotton comfortable material. This dress could only be bought at the place she visited. You can't buy it at any shopping center around the world, not branded, but beautiful. You'll appreciate its uniqueness and beauty. People who have sharp eyes like the top fashion designers or the managers of the garment factories, chief merchandisers or purchasing managers will notice its beauty. Wealthy women love this type of dresses with laced outline. She resembles Sally Yeh, faithful wife of George Lam, a good woman who appreciated George Lam's help. Why are you still waiting?
It's rare to see traffic jam in Singapore, because the normal car prices are insane overpriced over 1000% of is real price..
bikes here costs as much as cars in other countries
And they should keep it that way. Cars are not supposed to be priced like they are in other countries. The real costs of the cars are way beyond what they charge; it's more road maintenance, carbon emissions, destruction of cohesive communities, time wasted in traffic, and toll on mental health.
why should cars be cheap/affordable? Outside cities, sure no big deal but in cities, walk-2 wheelers-public
@@NoBullshitU lool
Everyone should stand guard for their government and lifestyle given by the country
Oh, she's still in SG. After so many years...
She's from China who just has American citizenship.
To me, her(Kola) story doesn't adds up. Single, Travel 200 countries, consultant, quit a $200k job, studied couple of degrees, wrote books, an US citizen, her accent also doesn't sound American, come to Singapore to sign up for the army to serve as a soldier. I don't believe everything she said, sorry. What is her real reason to do that, nobody knows? Is she trying to get Singapore citizen or PR in the fast lane, if so is she willing to give up her US citizenship for that, i don't think so. (very few would) Trying to stand out to get more view for her own YT sub ? Maybe, that would be crazy if true, but IDK.
EDIT : I just saw some comment here, i think one nailed it, she joined a 2 weeks NS course but make it sound as if she had signed up for NS, WTF. She is such a con.
Hey, don't be parochial or primeval lah. You can say anything you like without harming or cheating anybody, take it easy
You talked like you are the King: To Me. Who are you? To me? So what?
Feels safe here
I cannot believe that i understand most of what they talked about in Russian English & Singlish the lady used with the Singaporized / Han-Chinesed wording that means she tended to express a relative complex concept just using simple , basic phrases. That might be part of reasons why she feel at ease living in Singapore where has its own way to express themselves in English that is different from what Brits and Americans normally do. Thanks for sharing.
MMA in the cage is the UFC. Old stereotype is obsoleted. World has changed, motor vehicles replaced the horses.
Volunteer corp siboh? She sign on can travel so freely meh? Your lingo tells me you did a short volunteer course niah.
i am from Singapore lets go singapore
Why doesn't she tell us where she is originally from? She's clearly not born in the USA. A lot of us are curious.
In her other video she mentioned she has 3 ethnicities which she didnt wanna reveal. And also hinted growing up in a number of different countries outside US...Australia being just one of them..but yeah she doesnt sound Aussie either.
where is koala originally from? i watched her videos she says shes american, but i wonder whats her ethnicity, she kinda sounds hong kong ish, just curious!
She has a HK accent.
Sounds like HK. Surprised she doesnât want Australia residency. Pretty nice place to live?
@@user-jk5um1om8l if you're white then maybe, but she isn't so it's difficult to say...
@@vanityfairsosborne Singaporeans retiring in Australia in droves⊠and thereâs a huge Asian population. Lovely people, at least in my experience.
I hv HK neighbours and colleagues. They generally prefers SG citizenship. You will see them volunteering in cc, festive events, etc. and now army.
Comparing her time to volunteer and full time conscription and say that what she went through is more intense. What an insult to full time NS. LOL. I am sure many Singaporean males would love to volunteer then
Don't be sensitive. In her body built, she felt and proud, ok for her, no insult, don't feel insulted or insult yourself or NS
@@user-gp5ls5iz7x I am sure I understand English. She said it was more intense because their course was condensed compared to what the other NS boys go through. C'mon...taking a sh1t at what our boys go through?? I for one would like to go through her "intense" and shorter training regime...anytime! :)
The Optometry unit in the Singapore Defence Force must be very large
It is incorrect to say that Singapore PRs do not have to serve National Service. PRs who turn 18 are called up for NS. Singapore must be the only country in the world that conscripts foreigners into its armed forces....
â€â€â€ koala
It is not 5 mins from my home to the airport..... it is 45mins
Should be comma , " if you can afford to "đđ
wow...thanks for the praise on Singapore, but i dont take 5 mins to go from my place to airport?haha...
I would like to hear more about her Australian experience, she went to the trouble of getting PR, which. Is a long process, but now doesnât want to live there. She calls herself Koala after all :)
Many Singaporeans gave up their Singapore Citizenship to live in Australia, love at first sight. Majority of them regretted
Yes completely agree...was PR in au but over time u start to see the ugly side and makes you appreciate singapore more
How are you able to just immigrate to Singapore?
for sure Malaysian wonât voluntarily apply for military service. Whereas Pr or already Singaporean Malaysians are just here for the money. I salute for foreigners who volunteered for the national service. đ«Ą
Totally agree! so now you know these are the leeches who have no shame in their dictionary.
singapore is best to live if you are rich. plain and simple brother.
Originally, she came from where? I don't think she's an American by blood...
Why not malaysia?
You know, I'm something of a soldier myself.
NS 1971 - 1974, trained with faulty frequent jammed AR15 from felled GI in Vietnam War, Ceylon rice with rats' heads, limbs and tails, in forested and jungled heavy commandos' mosquitoes caused very sharp pain on you, filtered dirty drinking water from rivers, illogical insane punishment from CSM or RSM burnt your weekends, missed your girlfriends or your parents. Cooks used dirty smelly socks to filter coffee or tea for SGT, CSM, RSM, Officer who burnt the weekends of cooks. The foods tasted bad. We were not so well educated like our parents, suffered in silence. NS boys were majority pai kia, ah beng or ah huat, thugs, uncouth, frequent fist fights to resolve dispute, made us tough badass today, strong immune systems to withstand most kind of food. It's a blessing after all the years of torture in NS of 1971
Her first sentence "you have no idea". Well Singapore fits her subtle narcissism well. Singapore is a well run country, but it is far from a free society and monitoring of the population is well in place, but for 2 attention hungry YT's that is no problem.
đ€đ
Where did Miss Koala grow up? Where does an American learn to speak with a sort of Singlish accent?
I doubt her accent is due to Singlish influence but rather the accent she grew up with in America among her immigrant family/neighbourhood (the ethnicity of which she prefers to keep private, I guess). I can see why she likes Singapore which is often misunderstood as a non-English speaking country just because they do not have typical Western sounding "native" accents ...just like herself.. I suppose it makes her English sound less "pidgin" in comparison. (I mean she has even made "comedies" about Singlish in other videos).
she said she doesnt want to waste her time to queue...Isnt that sg people like to queue...even they dont know what is the people queuing..
Which 5 countries she didn't travel to?
190 or 19000 countries ⊠whatâs the point?
Better to stay in 2 or 3 countries for 10 yrs and 50 countries for 2 or 3 yrs.
But everyone is different.
Having globetrotting to 190 countries it gives a unique perspective.
I visited 7 planets, but best is home đ
I have seen some of her videos before. She has one where she got "scam" by landlord.
Several billionaires and many millionaires choose to live in Singapore for good. However, the property prices in Singapore are high. Singapore isn't suitable for people who love nature or enjoying living in the mountains 24/7 staring at seas all year round. Lives are priceless and invaluable; thus, a good quality medical healthcare and a hygienic environment are priorities of most wealthy people. Singapore is an extremely hot and humid city, summer for 365 days a year. Singapore is a melting pot of many different people and cultures from all over the world. Literally, Singapore has people from 190 countries living or working here. Renting a bedroom or an apartment in Singapore is high, including HDB. Fortunately, the public transport, MRT & Buses, are affordable for many. One can have an affordable breakfast, lunch, dinner or supper at the hawker centers or coffee shops. Singapore is suitable for people who love the city life. The reliable public transport system covers 90% of Singapore and the taxi fare is also affordable. Just get married to a Singaporean man will get you a PR, have baby, to get the Singapore passport.
Same sentiments, Singapore is the perfect place for people who have very high levels of discipline, good moral compass, have high desire to keep fit, value safety alot and generally everyday hungry.
National Service helps to shape young men to be better men during formative years before adulthood. It is impossible to shape each and every young man. However, to be able to achieve 90% is considered a success, harmony, peace, prosperity and tranquility for all of us here and all around us. Our forefathers made a wise decision.
Don't speak as though your short time volunteer experience in the military is equivalent to the full fledged 2 yrs experience that all Singaporean guys were forced to go through. No need to bring this up as if it is a massive contribution. Yes, I blatantly undermine your military volunteer experience as child''s play, nothing more than a holiday camp, period
Bro, I made the same comment here about a 2week summer camp and got some flak by some girls.
One bullet felled the toughest badass commando or veteran. Strategy and weaponry, best physique isn't everything.
Common to have muscular men with six-pack coming in asking for Viagra (erectile dysfunction)
Actually singapore movement in tech Make Malaysia a better place while Singapore keep having space issue..
She doesn't speak like an American.
It is rather strange that she claims to be a "soldier" and joined the SAF when she is actually part of the SAFVC? FYI SG women, first-generation Permanent Residents and new citizens between 18 and 45 years of age are welcome to apply to the SAFVC . These volunteers will be called up for training and deployment to typically serve up to 14 days in a year. But bro, your edits of B-roll to actual NS-enlistees is so misleading! Volunteers have Basic Training (Continuous - two weeks), Qualification Training (up to two weeks), Advanced Training (up to two weeks)- that is six weeks! And she is as capable as an 18 year-old with 3 months of Basic Military Training and another 6 months of Vocation training and/or leadership course? Lets get real.
Yea. No way itâs âmoreâ intense or even âasâ intense. Not even close. đ Conscript training phase last months and obviously the hammering is 10 times worse. Thank you for your contribution but letâs be real indeed.
Agreed,
No need to be a party pooper. She volunteered herself. Conscripts are young and abled body men, typically still in their teenage years. While volunteers are adults with other commitments. 2 weeks of training for SAFVC is similar to the 2 weeks of reservice, I would argue the 2 weeks SAFVC go through is more siong than the 2 weeks of reservice
@@Salasaurtotally agree⊠give her credit where credit is due. Which Singaporean would volunteer to do any military service if they didnât have to
