Its just our specialty.

Since my last post was so good (judged by myself), I will post again. This time, I will be talking about respecting ourselves. I think is totally wrong for the government to criticize Singlish like that.

I think, that when someone says a sentence with singlish in it, you all ang mohs out there listen. Instead of saying "That's lousy english!", say something like "That's great Singish", or

"I like that Singaporean streak in you!".

Singlish is our own language. When I communicated to my cousin, who is a Chinese in Singlish, she said that she liked it because it sounded very special.

Singlish is just our specialty like other countries. Malaysian chinese have that malaysian accent in their chinese as well. They should to be proud of it too!

We don't have be ashamed of singlish, or our another specialties, like kiasuism. I think we should be proud of that too.

Kiasuism has made our society more competitive and thus made us grow economically over the last decade. Like I just said it is our unique specialty, not a shame.

We should learn to be more optimistic, fellow Singaporeans. We should be truly proud of kiasuism and Singlish, our unique language.

I looking forward to the day when our future PMs can proudly speak to the US president, "I think we should build more aircraft carriers lah!"

Its just our specialty lor.

Be proud of it lah.

Respect ourselves.

I hope Singaporeans can respect themselves. It is a growing trend and is typical nowadays of Singaporeans (at least my friends) to spout racist comments at chinese from China.

This afternoon, I went for my badminton competition National's. I caught a glimpse of the other schools playing. SJI sent their 2nd Singles to play with ACS(I)'s 2nd Singles. The ACS(I) Singles was a Chinese immigrant, probably a PR, who came to Singapore to study.

The worst I wanted happened.



The coach of the SJI team shouted:"Cina import!"

He started sniggering and laughing with the SJI team members and kept on muttering "Cina import. Lousy goods!"

I really wanted to walk over and give him a punch in his *censored*. I wanted scream out loud in his face, "You are a chinese too! Be proud of your homeland."

I guess the government has exercised too much *censored* propaganda in Singapore eg. singing of National Anthem every morning, but don't forget our roots!

Oru ancestors are from China!

That is actually a true homeland!

If we don't respect other's its obviously wrong. Who do you think you are. What right do you have to say "China Import". Can I tell that Chinese you are a "Singapore Scum"?

No! A thousand times no! Because I believe you would want to be respected as a Singaporean. And I believe that Chinese would like to be respected as a Chinese, and human.

Furthermore, your ancestors are from China. Too dimwitted, can't respect others, at least learn to respect yourself!

My message for you is: Respect yourself!
