lets day that we do not need to change the translation, then why
not adopt other languages(non-malay) as well as a national anthem?
be sung at school...
like deino have said, our culture may evolve but our history may
never do that... Since wen did i say we need to change history?
History is in the past and that the end of it. I did state that our
culture should evolve... why stick to the past and not change our
evolving culture?
Do you still see that the 'original' culture(be it malay,
chinese, indian etc) being practised strongly as they were during
the 1940s? Our culture is evolving adapting and changing(minor) to
different cultures in s'pore.
Deino, ur sentences seems paradoxical to me...
Why makes you think that the chinese in s'pore is more
priviledged? i think coz the chinese more educated(no
offense), statistics have been done that shows the malays r less
educated as many r dropouts...
Personally, i have seen the malays in singapore... Half are
really hardworking n the other half are the lazy ones that like to
hang around at the void decks...
i too believe that every race got its black sheep... U cant see
it in the chinese coz of the large population compared to other
races in s'pore...
P.S. short Ninja... i didnt start this thread... u did...
actually yes the chinese are more priveledged in this
country......you guys dominate the media......about jobscope most
companies always preferred chinese speaking men.......which forces
people of other races to speak chinese......there was once an
indian colleague of mine went to apply for a job which he was
highly qualified as.....the person who interviewed him told him
that they preffered if he was able to speak chinese......
dun you think chinese are given priority?.....i seriously have
nothing wrong with that since you are the majority of the
country
statistics are statistics.....if malays were the majority we
could've said the same.......
spore was number 29th in terms of security becoz of
statistics......the reason being so was becoz of the size of our
army even though its size was relatively big enough for our country
and all.....
actually about black sheeps.....i see them everyday.....i do not
side any race here.......but the cause of our black sheeps is the
bad effects of our multi culturalness......
