Malaysians have Thaipusam as a public holiday. Does that make them more "Indian" than Singapore?

2nd gen Singaporean meaning he is born here of HK'ers parents?
Does he think Singapore is like Channel 8 dramas? Not a single Malay, Indian, or Others, in the show. Or worse, think Singapore is Chinese!
Is he really 2nd gen Singaporean?

These are the 6 biggest Bollywood markets in India. The statement that you mention does not exactly reflect the whole market.
A good example of india folks in deinal - Bollywood is bollywood - i don't care how you divide it , you can divide it to those that shake their bum left only , or shake their bum right only , or shake their bum back only and even does that don't shake their bum !!!!

Yes, he was born here, his parents born in HK then emigrated here.

This is bad, I was born here of immigrant parents too, never felt that Singapore is Chinese, and in fact resent the Sino-zation of Singapore by LKY.
Even if he passes today, his legacy will endure forever. :(

Some Indians I encounter are out purely for fault finding with other race.
In Singapore, Indians are actually the most trusted people...
...that is why most are employed as security guards..

Lol, do you even see which nationality opened this thread? read through SG forum and I am sure SGians are biggest moaners/complainers and fault finders.

I could say that about some people of any race.

I think you mean Sikhs.
Tamil-Indians are known to steal from their workplaces. My grandfather used to say whoever that doesn't steal isn't an Indian.

Lol at that. It could well be that your grandfather was Indian.
Alot of Indians don't trust each other either. Distrust and disdain amplified if they are from a different tribe. That's why the more westernised Indians despise the mainland ones for giving them a bad name.
Go ask around if you have good friends among them.

My grandpa? He is a Hokkien who used to own some rubber estates in Malaysia. He once said "Mm tau mm si kelin gah" meaning "whoever doesn't steal isn't Indian" in his native dialect.
iveco....are you really in perth?is it racist as described?

Denial aar? Are you the one who is in denial by saying "i don't care..." as most people who are the arrogant ones use this kind of statement the most. (eg. i don't care who you are, i don't care what you say, i don't care whether there is ...)
You can't even back up your statement "if you alway watch bollywood movie - you be arrogant also. They have fat actor kicking the ass..." properly with facts when someone engages a deeper discussion with you

If you alway watch bollywood movie - you be arrogant also . They have fat actor kicking the ass of the whole army better then rambo then dance and shake their fat and girl love him .

Indian girls will hide in the bushes, and Indian man will hide behind trees.
