Not sure what the big deal is, freedom of information can be misused especially on an ill informed public, Singapore used to have a lot of restriction of information and still does hence we remain low on the Press Freedom List. Freedom of information was slowly opened up as society developed...

NS can be a rewarding experience now that I look back and think of the good times I had, important thing is don't be the odd man out in the bunk otherwise you lose friends pretty quick. Make the best of it...

Hiya, I'm in the workforce actually, have been for some time now. What about yourself?

You didn't answer the question dude

Thanks, appreciate the consideration of your replies on this sensitive topic which I say is quite accurate, getting late so I will reply back when I can ---------- Post added at 08:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:40 PM ---------- When was it manufactured?

You write this with good intention so I will too, I need to caution you not too tar all Chinese Singaporeans with the same brush (your intention was probably not the case). Not all Singaporeans are alienated against the Mainland Chinese although I must admit there are a fair number of them do do...

Actually I believe he is working in Singapore probably in the finance sector IT/back office probably under a work permit pass. He display some traits which is common among certain individual staff I have come across from India (disclaimer this is not to say its an Indian traits but so happens I...

This is just a united show by some for multi-culture society & tolerance. Do not for one second assume you represent the views of Singaporean and turn it into a you vs us thing, had the situation been turned it could have also been a incident involving an Indian family. ---------- Post added at...

Agreed, in addition I had more exposure to China when I was young (90's) as my grandfather often went back to our ancestors village in Fujian. I believe many Singaporeans so too which is why in Xiamen you can find many Singaporean related businesses and that is due to the many of the migrants...

The straight answer would be no, the 1st generation Chinese like my granddad did but we are third generation though we do have relatives in china. Being Chinese however there will always be a form of kinship and connection thru similar cultures etc

We head to Malaysia to party ;)

Whatever, now I question if you are located in Singapore. Go to a 7 eleven and paw thru their newspapers for the answer. You have till 10pm when they change the papers to prove yourself otherwise your own identity is in questions. Next time think before you question others.

How about this, look at today's classified ads section of the straits times, who is the largest advertiser on that page C38

That he does it seems, though we are ethnically Chinese in majority the beauty of the nation is that she accepts most nationalities and I hope develops into a society that is less biased then most other nations with regards to race. Its ironic that Mr Nair appears to "represent" majority of...

I'm a Singaporean Chinese user who comes about when Singapore gets involves, I try to maintain a neutral stance. Are you even a Singaporean or just another migrant worker who is here to earn money?

There are bound to be mainland Chinese workers who are from the countryside that will have conflicts with the city people. I have colleagues and friends who are mainland Chinese and they easily get around Singapore plus they feel welcomes. Its just like how we have Indians who are also from the...

Surprised at Singapore being so high

Don't be stupid :hitwall: Malaysia willingly gave up Singapore. Go read some history before talking trash.

I'm not sure what you term "naive" of sorts, my principal is straightforward I do not tar everyone with the same brush just because we have we few clowns who supposedly "represent" their nationality. We have Chinese, Indian, Vietnamese etc clowns who troll day in and day out, does that mean we...
