1) At age 8-9, me and my younger brother were literally dragged out from the lift by our sch bags by a caucasian man. He insisted his wife should enter the lift first, ladies first. An adult dragging two primary school children by the sch bags…just imagine.

2) Having parked the car and about to alight at our office car park with many empty lots to choose from, this caucasian man just have to park beside us. And have the cheek to ask my brother to move away and make space his car.

Yes, me and my brother again.

Seriously, who the fuck do you think you are? Leave this country if you are so upset. You foreigners are no better polite or humble than any of us Singaporeans. We dont need you here.

P.S. Animals are of the same height as us. Nothing on earth is better or worse. We exist to support each other.

I’m not saying the Malays or Indians are perfect. Far from it. But it’s just that their contradistinguishable perfections can cancel out each others imperfections – if the chinese had not been taught that as ‘the majority’, they need not bother with the perspectives of the non-chinese, which, unfortunately, has been the case for the last couple of decades.

You could say, because of that, there are greater similarities between the local chinese and the chinese from China, then there are between the local chinese and the Malays and Indians in Singapore. Which is why when the xenophobic Temasek Review, amongst others, started terming the local chinese, amongst others, as ‘native borns’, i found that laughable. The local chinese are more like ‘nurtured by china in a foreign land – singapore’ – through the government sponsorship of china’s culture in singapore.

However, given the unfortunate hegemony of subservience and self-absorption inducing ‘china culture’ in singapore, the Malays and Indians – the latter especially – are becoming more chinese, and thus, today, aren’t as able to teach the chinese as much as they could a couple of decades ago. But then again, given the preference given to the chinese and chinese culture, the chinese aren’t inclined to learn from anyone anyway. Hence, their ‘stupidity’, ‘rudeness’, ‘arrogance’, ‘shallowness’, ‘self-absorption’, etc, etc, etc. Can happen to any ‘preferred’ people whatever the race. In that, the local chinese are victims themselves. But, via china’s culture, they have become victimisers.

The essence of china’s culture lies in its ability to bring out the worst in people so that the government can do their best to exploit the people. That’s been the case since 221 b.c. I prefer multicultural egalitarianism myself, and which is more so the case in India than it has been in China. To local chinese, you ought to stop being ‘chinese’ and start being ‘singaporean’ through appreciation of other cultures, instead of just ‘tolerance’, which is akin to ‘ignoring’.

Where else in the world do you find citizens who simply stand by and not even utter a single word when their fellow countrymen are rounded up by the secret police?

Singaporeans are the most practical, pragmatic people on the face of this planet.

I think the locals call this the KS syndrome.

Everyone is out only for himself, herself, and cares little for his/her fellow citizens.

That is Singapore for you.

It is not really about rudeness. It is about selfishness and being pragmatic and practical to the point of absurdity.
