all i want to say, instead of asking singaporeans to be
tolerant with foreigners. It should be the foreigners who should
make an effort to merge into singapore. If cant adapt, please
leave, so that other who can adapt and willing to adapt can work/
stay in singapore.
I agree
with your points. Well said indeed.
I have met a new pinoy migrant who asked me question that no
Singaporean ever asked me. That is, why me being Christain
also not a Catholic. Should a Christian be immediately a
Catholic? Or should all Christian be only Catholic? This same pinoy
who expressed distain in things Chinese.
I have met a new pinay migrant who questioned my inability to be
gaiety like the pinoy. When I hinted my disinterest in her to her,
she turned abusive, started to harass me. Should I adapt to her
culture just because she has migrated to my country?
I have met a new Indian Hindu migrant who spewed hate at Indian
Muslim, calling them hypocrites and expected me to go along with
his views. This same Indian who expressed distain in seeing our
local woman dressing casually and revealingly.
The fact is many of these migrants have never live in a
multi-racial society, never live along with another race. Many are
still deeply rooted in their culture, race and religion; seeing
their lots as superior to others.
I don't
migrate to their countries for them to express such distain in
things local or for them to enforce their view on culture, religion
or way of life on me.
Migrants to this country have to acknowledge that they have
migrated to a new country with vastly different way of life, a
country with a dominant race being the Chinese, a country with work
ethics that are different and a country with multi-racial
composition.
If they can’t or are unwilling to adopt or adapt, please get out.
