Pick a metric and singapore probably wins. They have a functioning universal healthcare system based on vouchers. Their government is cheap, being remarkably cheap and effective on any GDP based measure. They have an effective but cheap military. They have a working immigration system that serves the citizenry. I could go on. That you do not like Singaporean society is neither here nor there, and actually rather separate from the government. Your (presumably hippy) sensibilities might actually appreciate it's multi-ethnic and fairly harmonious. Lee Kuan Yew will go down as one the great men of the 20th century.
