But the UK is much more densely populated. You travel for 70 miles in England and you've passed 3 cities.
Nobody is considering Oxford to be part of the London metro area.

I never got why Oxford airport was called "London Oxford". It's 70 miles away from London.

More traditional gender roles than other cultures (i.e. more housewives/SAHMs), also close vicinity to Malaysia so might have people commuting to Malaysia to work (so wouldn't count among the SG labour force).

I think it's more likely that anyone who lives in Singapore and speaks a language other than the 4 listed here, then they will certainly ALSO speak at least one of these 4 languages.

I think anybody who thinks they've booked a flight to London and lands in Oxford is going to be confused and annoyed.
