How's life in the smallest city in the world? What is nationalism? Is there anything that we can think about truthfully other than writing ''personal comments'' i think... you thought... should be... maybe... when serious problem arises.. the one next to you always push you to go forward instead of volunteering first... when comes to success or any gain.. the one next to you jump out faster than anyone else does.. This is the most hectic city in the world. Contrary to a country or any countries in the world, lifestyle could be more interesting and you won't be tied down physically or mentally.
It's easy to visit jail in this city. Any tiny offence made is a ticket to jail.. duration do not know.. ever wonder why we cannot produce any OLYMPIC WINNER OR ANY sE asian sport people? whereby buying those rejected item from overseas or of lower grade and feel proud over it..rejoyce...and... i don't know. Where's the pride, and notion of staying here once and ever. who are we??? Are we predestined to be here??? who is our potential enemies?? and will other invade us for our concrete walls and concrete infurstructure ?? How is life going to be in 50 years time in this city?? The country name China Has a wonderful Province city call Shanghai. In this City it had survive alot of nonesense war.. revolution and this city's age is longer than our city we are staying in. It's many time better and bigger than us. Should we ? can we? be like them say in another 50 years??
dun act chim...
ur english is not up to standard yet....
NOT ACTING CHIM IN ANY MANNER, OF COZ I PROUD TO SAY THAT MY ENGLISH SUCKS! WHY SHOULD I HAVE CORRECT SPELLING, CORRECT USAGE OF GRAMMER ETC??? WORDS CAN'T EXPRESS MEANING WITHIN AND LENGTHY PARAGRAPH COULD NOT DENOTE ANY PROFOUND, HOLISTIC LOGIC...
ENGLISH IS MY THIRD LANGUAGE.... DIALACT IS FIRST LANGUAGE, MOTHER TONGUE IS MY SECOND LANGUAGE.
WE DON'T USE ENGLISH OFTEN.. WE NEED TRANSLATOR.. ENGLISH OUGHT TO BE USE ONLY FOR COMMUNICATING WITH THE OUTSIDE WORLD.. WHEREBY ANYONE WHO DOESN'T UNDERSTAND HIS/HER MOTHER TOUNGUE.. THEN WE SHALL SIGNAL HIM/HER... ''ERM... ENGULISH?.. YOU SPEAK ENGULISH?......''
UNDERSTAND? :) chim is something natural in our blood, no need to act and we don't know how to act either like any other naive local
IN THIS CITY, WHERE ARE WE? OUR ENGULISH?.. HEHE WE RESPECT OUR ''CULTURE'' HERE
How's life in this tiny city?
Stressful, crowded and flooded with foreign aliens plus a worthless government.

Lee KUan Yew is the one who caused the problem.
He is not dialect chinese but peranakan, that is the chief factor.
So he insists on the population go and follow his peranakan colonial language.
Of course when selling the propaganda, he says that is to make things "fair" for all ethnic groups.
Of course he forgot to say that he himself is peranakan and that community speaks english.
Fair.
Very fair.
Fair.
Very Fair.
Fairer than Fair.

When Lee Kuan Yew makes the fucking rules, everything is "fair".
When is everything is "fair"?![]()
Stressful, crowded and flooded with materialistic animals.
but some guys would say, "shiok ar.... got so many chiobu, wats there not to like"
Too crowded, too noisy, too monitored, too restricted.
if u are rich...... life is good whether the place in tiny or huge.....
after all... money is the limit.... not the sky....

Not really... lets say u'r rich, but u'r stuck in a poor huge country got $ also nothing to buy those.... Scare ppl rob u somemore ( send u to heaven also possible )
But if u'r rich and u happen to stay in places like SG its totally different at least chances of ppl coming to rob u is way lesser...
It's hard not to get into trouble with gahmen...
I see... will we forced to learn to wear Sarong?... like qing dynasty asking us to keep pigtail?... he had never mention loud loud about his ethic belonging ever before.. but only discreetly.. though we have alot of pretty girls every where but they are just to see.... all of them think that their abalone got gold and sell very expensive... but is actually worthless...
Even if you are rich... how many generation of ''wealthy'' glory do you think you can tahan here?....
will that man tolerate you when he know you are richer than him?.... He might scare you push him down.. wealth should be kept in a safe place outside of the city to be safe.
we do not scare of robbery... in another word instead i shall be at least a small king in poor country with well protected security. HEHE.... DO YOUR KNOW WHO'S THE BIGGEST TERRORIST HERE THAT TERRORISE US EVERYDAY?........ ROB US IN OTHER WAYS THAT IS MORE GRACEFUL THAN ANY ROBBER?
1 good thing is that many countries people come to this city, we have a greater variety of ''choice'' to choose over girls.. Infact i have hunted down korean and oter pretty girls from other country here...this is a give away though i can say... no need to spend much money to get all the way to any desired country just for ''hunting'' but guys... do not let this ''bonus'' drained us away for our true self and intial stituation
W e cannot think that we might be lucky if we are rich. How about the poor, naive and elderly? Being selfish i don't think is good, In the name of racial harmony we can ''tolerate'' multi-races and religion in the expense of peace.. How about tolerating the poor, naive and elderly? If they are neglected , ya if you are rich, you won't be affected by any of these group of people, but judge and question your concious why must we torelate other different race or religion in the first place? Doing, acting with a motive is no good, everything should be open and sincere.
It takes 3 man to take down 1 enemy soldier here, is that a glory or anything also can as long as we survive?... pride? if we human with proper education do anything just to win and neglect other smaller event in life.. we are worse than animals... even animal got true feelings and dogs are loyal to their master whoever it follows. The mongols back in the Yuan dynasty are proud and strong... they are fearless in war, fight almost battle with bravery because they honor genghis khan as the world ruler... even till death they feel glory. Each of their guy are trained to take down at least 10 enemy. They fight with pride, awesome unbeatable glory in the great faith of their khan at 1:10 if they can do this... they feel disgrace and not begin a mongol nationality.
I f a leader is respectable in any field and is worthy of everyone i mean fair and consensus love not made up or sympathy love, even dying for the leader is of noble act.
If someone KENG all his life in ''extorting'' money in any ''liberal way'' with litlle or no or unsincere effort for the people.. Even 3 time rebirth... the Tick mark will never hits ''bull eye''
There's a joke at TICK MARKING.... Many people like AH NAM the funny local comedy man comedian and elderly lot people TICK MARK and thought that the TICK MARK PORTION when being TICKED is mean DON'T WANT........

From this comment of yours, I suppose that you feel that the Peranakans have been doing a great injustice to the rest in Singapore then, since they have benefited from their proficiency in English.
I don't support LKY and I'll rather take a neutral stand on politics.
So if it's not English, what language should have been adopted as the chief one? Hokkien? Then it'll still cripple some of the ethnic groups, no matter what.
And for the record, not all Peranakans speak English as their main language. There are some who continue to converse in Baba Malay too.
big might not be good de ma, sometime small are more beautiful.
u didnt hear pple saying, it a small world after all
our MM Lee Kill You loves foreigners!!!! look at the ST paper today.

Not against english but against the dominance of english.
Then it'll still cripple some of the ethnic groups, no matter what.
I don't think so. Think of Malaysia.

what's with the caps dude...![]()
but i must say and i will say it again.. ur english really cmi... i really have a hard time trying to figure out what u trying to say cos u really cannot state ur point well...
but i must give u credit for trying... and u really do try hard to "communicate with the outside world" so to speak.... ![]()
but since u are proud of ur sucky english then my above statements should be a complement to you i guess....
so erm... u are naturally chim??? but ur initial posting seems to suggest otherwise???![]()
life in this tiny city is about pay and pay and pay until you die. Very soon when the people here die their bodies are not spared.
You will enjoy life here if you are happy to pay and pay.
First of all, singapore is not the smallest city in the world.
The smallest city in the world is somewhere in Croatia.
and if your are comparing smallest country, Vatican is the smallest Country in the world.
Living in Singapore is a Lucky thing.
be grateful of what you have. at least we don't have much natural disasters.
