*coughs*
English? to remind people that we used to be a colony of an imperial power that left us for dead when the japanese came?
Chinese? to forever remind the neighbours that u are the little yellow oasis among the desert of brown brothers?
Tamil??? when indians take up only a small minority in the country and not all of them are ethnic tamils anyway!
are u even thinking this through before shooting your mouth off??? -

Even the koreans are proud of themselves as KOREANS and proud of their national language etc..
Just mean..Why is it a language that hardly anyone speaks?
ALSO,We can't hide the fact that we are a pre-dominantly majority race country.
We got a high percentage of 75% and even m'sia with 60% of thier predominantly majority race , also calls themselve of a certain race and etc
what's wrong with being a little yellow oasis?
im proud that im a little yellow oasis and yes.
a yellow part of oasis with ethnic relationships to my friends in
Hong Kong,Taiwan, ShangHai,Beijing,Macau , top cities of asia to come.
China is going to be the next america.
Population almost 3 times larger then USA , World's strongest country
Just don't get it, singapore ironically has one of the smallest populations in the world, yet as our race, we got over 1.4 billion people LOL...
We may be singaporean, but we still have chinese new year,
unless your talking about you don't celebrate CNY , den i got nothing to say about you.
Im now talking about u know..last time..we could have like
made it into English or whatever..or no national language at all..
Just like there's no official religion in singapore..
just only have major religions and major races..
no official races..pure meritocracy..
Nope , i mean what's wrong with being a yellow little oasis,
when you got a A huge yellow oasis about 6 hours away? -
dun argue la~~~
-
Anyway, it's good to see that this debate is going further and progressing..
some things are tough to mention, but as expected..
If you wanna change your race to singaporean..it doesn't exist..
It only exists as a nationality..
It only boils down to you , yourself..PAL!
Don't deny the very fact of blood that flows within you..
Just like what Taiwanese is doing..
Just take a DNA test and compare it with a chinese guy
and a ang mo guy.., who is closer? Ang mo or chinese?
Same thing, if you wanna erase your identity..its impossible cause you have to
drain out the blood.
How i wish i could be a Singaporean Race. Without any chinese/malay/indian
eurasian..but we would lose our heritage and tradition..
those nice satays..those nice bee hoon..those nice pratas..
Race itself, is a beauty of nature -
Friend your topic getting a little too racist for comfort...last warning better tone down.
I do not give a damn whether there is a yellow oasis here or 6 hours away. I am proud that I am Singaporean and that I can live in peace with my non chinese brothers and sisters.
Last warning. -
dun worry... its still very tame.
this is something worth discussing.
misconceptions must be properly discuss so they can be cleared up.
