foreigners not counted. unless they convert to singaporean.Originally posted by dragg:look at the number of mainland chinese around you and the answer is obvious.
den can we have kampung life>?Originally posted by Gordonator:Looking at the people around me, I find that more and more Chinese Singaporean are staying single. even for those married, they tend to have only 1 or 2 children, some even don't intend to have children at all.
On the other hand, Malay families tend to have many children, usually 3, 4 or even more. With these in mind, won't Singapore Chinese population will be declining very soon in the future?
Do u all feel the same way too? feel free to comment.
many chinese couples feel one is enuf. most cite stressful education system n high expenses. plus time no enuf as gotta work long hrs or travel. once, this malay cabbie spoke about buying canned food by the dozens from rochor rd as it is cheaper. he then said tt the malays see each child as god's gift n so having many kids is like receiving alot of blessings. all he wants is see his kids grow up.Originally posted by Gordonator:Looking at the people around me, I find that more and more Chinese Singaporean are staying single. even for those married, they tend to have only 1 or 2 children, some even don't intend to have children at all.

the mentality is for all to see.Originally posted by ^reality:And whats wrong with not being able to speak english and not knowing about investments? My parents can't speak english and doesn't know aout investments too. Are they wasting earth's natural resources in ur eyes? What's important is that you can make an honest living. Whether you are a disgrace or not doesn't depend on the languages you speak, how well-off you are etc. As long as you can raise your family through honest work, and fulfil your responsiblities to your family, I would think you have done pretty well.
I AGREE as I think, you have a point here.Originally posted by Gordonator:Looking at the people around me, I find that more and more Chinese Singaporean are staying single. even for those married, they tend to have only 1 or 2 children, some even don't intend to have children at all.

Yes, I am looking at the number of China nationals here in SG; but right out of these horses mouths; THEY have NO Interntions to stay on! Yet, our gov ANGKAT them like there's no tomorrow... sigh.. sad...Originally posted by dragg:look at the number of mainland chinese around you and the answer is obvious.
True..it's these group of ppl that spoil the whole malay gene pool.Originally posted by trendz:the mentality is for all to see.
sad sods.
what's wrong with not being able to speak english?
here; i tell you.
you wouldn't be able to communicate well... much less mentioning your articulation.
ie. you wouldn't be able to convey your messages across clearly.
and of course; foreigners and expats would have great difficulties in understanding your 'excellent Singlish'.
English is THE international language. Even the PRCs are picking it up.
btw, ya talkin abt fulfilling responsiblities? You are not even able to support yourself; much less your family. So why the hell did you even wanna f*ck time and again and pop out 4 or 5 kids? Do they ever think of the consequences? You call this fulfilling your responsiblity? Use your brain alright?
i digress.
Records have shown fights/riots or even lil' troubles/arguements, etc are caused by the 'em. Read terrorism.
Honest living? Think again. at least 50% of drug-abusers are malays and that's a fact. Read Malaysia. Robberies, and stuff.
a lil' spark will cause an uproar regarding caricatures of a holy figure. But then again, which bloody sh*t actually condone violence in order to make a stand?
what a digrace!
and yes.. i see lots of useless good-for-nothing mats and minahs out on the streets portraying their fashion flop statements. Think yellow polo tee and green jeans. OMG! What a laughing stock! haha. No wonder they're the worst- dressed among the lot.
They think pork is dirty and smelly; but the chinese eats pork; therefore they said the chinese are dirty and smelly.
You eat chinese food in a malay (sector) of a hawker centre, the malay hawkers would throw away the bowls of the Chinese hawker. (because it has pork and is dirty and smelly.)
They view indians as 'bangalas' who are dirty and smelly too and they think they are the most prim and proper.
You call this racial harmony? It's just a smokescreen; don't be fooled.
Natural law states that humans are selfish. (Look up on 'Thomas Hobbes')
and which bloody crap sh*t teaches you to kill all who ain't islam? who bloody copies (similarly) to the bible? Which bloody sh*t teaches you that one day, the whole world must be of one religion?
oh, gettin' a lil' 'nostalgic'.. no wonder v. few actually got promoted in NS. and every single malay ain't allowed in one of the camp base (where there're high-end operation and secret and stuff). That's a rule we must conform to.
i'm not against muslims; but they're against the whole world, as if the whole world owes 'em a living. You know.. SG gives 'em special privileges and stuff...
in the end; it didn't work out too well. how sad.
While some facts are true about Malays being more prone to crime and drug abuse, I however think touching on this aspect of your argument may cross certain boundaries concerning Racial Respect.Originally posted by trendz:the mentality is for all to see.
