  the obvious chinese nationalism potrayed in the new singapore army commercial.

  the commercial starts out with two chinese hordes and phalanx ascending over a higher ground and meeting each other. then two very obviously chinese style phalanx fighting each other. yellow men with chinese style flags, chinese style helmet, chinese sword, chinese shield (modified with spikes) and chinese style breast plate armour.

  then the commercial starts showing modern era singaporean army with main battle tanks, spy drones and soldiers. soldiers in grass terrain and later soldiers in urban terrain probably mob-control soldiers.

  so what the hell is that supposed to mean? are you trying to imply singapore as a modern china? its pretty see through.
