Social Classes. Why?
-
Why do so many people in Singapore,
Think they are high/upper in Social Class? Becoz they got Uni"Grad"?
Becoz they got better paying job?
Becoz people are aloof and self-centered?
An example of a scenario would be: "People will not be friendly to you unless they have something to gain from you."
Another Scenario: Fireman is not a well-respected job to have in Singapore.(not in USA) -
Firemen got NSF ma.......NSF means sai kang..so u noe........

lidat then they will make all males serve NS for 5 yrs...

Females also need to serve in Government sectors as NSF for equality's sake and to lower costs of maintaining Government bodies ??Originally posted by missqi:

Its a very realistic world and many people has a stereotypical way of viewing the world. From my point of view, those who think they are of "higher/upper" class are all the more shallower than any people UNLESS they have the pedigree to prove it.Originally posted by NotFromVenus:Why do so many people in Singapore,

Yes, fireman in SG is being viewed as not well-respected because there are no recent major events that can truely show the heroics of the firemen. Not even policemen or road sweepers or even toilet cleaners. They should be the respected ones for they do the dirty work to keep SG clean and safe. -
