Best city: Sydney loses out to Melbourne
Best city: Sydney loses out to Melbourne
June 9, 2009 - 8:40AM
Australian cities occupy five of the top 20 places in a British survey ranking the liveability of 140 of the world's major centres.
Melbourne ranked third in the world, behind Vancouver in Canada and the Austrian city of Vienna in the Economist Intelligence Unit's 2009 Liveability survey.
It assessed 140 cities based on stability, health care, education, infrastructure and culture and environment, giving each one a rating out of 100.
Perth was equal fifth with Calgary in Canada, with Sydney sharing ninth place with Zurich in Switzerland and Brisbane in 16th place.
As well as Vancouver and Calgary, Canadian cities also featured strongly in the top 20, with Toronto (4th) and Montreal (17th).
The New Zealand cities of Auckland and Wellington finished 12th and 23rd respectively.
US centres were well down the list. Pittsburgh ranked highest, in 29th place.
The highest-ranked Asian city was Osaka in Japan (13th). The next highest was Hong Kong (equal 39th with Madrid, Spain) followed by Singapore (54th) and Seoul, South Korea (58th).
The worst city to live on earth is Harare, the strife-torn capital of Zimbabwe.
"The performance of Asian cities reflects the diverse levels of development throughout the region," EIU spokesman Jon Copestake said.
"Australian cities represent many of the best aspects of liveability, while instability in countries like Pakistan and Bangladesh means that cities in South Asia fare much worse."

Weekend dinner at Norsiah's Kitchen
Last weekend, went to a makan place recommended by one of our Singaporean friend with rating of "GOOD". Anyway, the name of the restaurant is Norsiah's Kitchen. In comparison to Melbourne standard, it is considerably cheap. The Malay rice with 2 meats and one vege is price at AUD6.50. Which is rarely found anywhere today in Melbourne :P I have since then ordered the Malay Rice for myself and we have also order the Roti Chanai which is called Roti Prata for Singaporean. On top of that, the highly recommended Tauhu Telur, which is an Indonesian dish.
May be it has been a long time since I have taken Malay food.. so I thought it is quite nice. However, I don't think is comparable to Malaysia Malay food. This is more Singaporean Malay style. The Tauhu Telur, I still pretty much miss the one I have in Singapore at "Rice Table" which is always unforgettable for me. Later on we have a chat with the owner and understand that she is actually Singaporean and migrated over to Melbourne to start her own business. She learn to cook Indonesian food from one of her part-time worker who happend to be a student for the Melbourne University which is just around the corner. She said study in Melbourne University is tough.. She often see student from Malaysia and Singapore burning midnight oil in the library.. By the time she is closing and cleaning at 1am, only then those students start to head back to their hostel or home. We chit chat till around 10pm which my niece start complaining that is her sleeping time, then we start to head home :P
