“She’s family-oriented. I find that Singaporeans spend a lot of time working, but I would like someone who can spend more time with my family and me.” – John Quah, 34, sales consultant
“She’s filial. This is very important because I come from a single-parent family and I am filial to my mum. I want her to be the same too. She doesn’t have to do the housework, but I’d like her to respect and stay with my family.” – Sylvester Quek, 32, stockbroker
“She’s smart in making use of the [household] resources… and most importantly, someone who spends wisely! She also has to understand my personality and the way I do certain things. My wife definitely does. If not, we wouldn’t have stayed together for so long.” – Kenny Ng, 40, assistant general manager
“She’s kind-hearted. If her heart is in the right place, everything’s good.” – Jason Lu, 39, salesman
“She’s funny. She has to be a joker just like me, so that we can make fun of each other!” – Andy Lim, 24, salesman
