What Foreigners really think of us

Dr Who SG

How do China people see us Singaporeans?

1. Look Chinese on the outside, but actually is Western barbarian

2. Got a bit of Chinese Culture, but not the Real Thing

3. They look smart, but actually got very low IQ like mr Bean, being decendents of Chinese coolies cross-bred with local aboriginal stock.

I am sure they are all laughing at Singaporeans behind our backs.....

i beg to differ lei...

"Western barbarian" i.e western decadence is a bunch off bullshit popularized by politicians egar to externalize the source of the so called "degredation of our decent Asian morals". Its just so easy to blame the west for whatever social ill and change that occurs in Singapore because of the intimate connections we share.

As for chinese culture, the only thing that remains constant regarding it is change. who doesnt favour true democracy and the economic benefits that come with it? Chinese culture rapidly adapts to people's habits and we should bloody hell not adapt ourselves to a culture that has redudant vaules and principles. While stuff like respect to parents ect shouldnt change, many others should and will change.

but as a chinese i do have to say singaporeans are considered a little "low stock" as you put it, but hey thats how the Brits thought of the Yanks and Aussies and that just seems retarded.

I agree that most Sillyporeans today are so dim-witted (and ugly) because they have ‘bad stock’. Their descendents came from south China during the days of persecution by the dynasty and they worked as coolies and farmers. Simple, unimaginative thinking was their main trait.

If you observe the Northern Chinese today, they are more refined, cultured, fairer, have better facial features and are also taller. Most modelling agencies in China aim for models from the North.

Well I don't know about being dim witted but I can confirm errrr the ouch how to put it mildly... the non-aesthetically, unpleasing face feature of the majority of the women like 99% of them well maybe I was exaggerating it was more like 98% point half .

But they do have great body(tall and slim) and healthy skin.

Don't take this as insult it is just a matter of personal opinion. I could fall in love each time I visit the local mall here in Jakarta but I can't say that there. . Let me see for my 4 years of staying there...I could recall 6 girls which I found attractive. Really I would pass up on the rest of the population.

This theory is bullshit lah.

Northern chinese diet is different from south, so they develop differently.

They are generally taller, so modelling agencies aim for them.

read too much Lee Kuan Yew's shit already lah.

And I wouldn't call Singaporeans barbaric. But I would certainly call the ruling people ARE.

OLAZHONG........timid evil ghost LOL. Man so fast in order to flee quickly...oooch shame shame shame. Wait some more my God hasn't arrived yet why flee already? People who stay in power for far too long becomes unbearably unreasonable. I would call them anti Christian...well anti true Christian or those trying to be a true Christian.

This is not to offend any fellow Singaporeans, but I find our linguitic skills quite sad. Just listen to GCT and LHL speak english and chinese and you will know - go China the Chinese have problem understanding us, go US the Americans have problem understanding us...

yes, they will surely laugh at you for sprouting such craps.

you may go ahead to disgrace yourself but pls don't disgrace singaporeans!

deathbait SG

I visit china practically every year, and I find the locals have no problems understanding me. And I'm didn't even do well in my chinese papers when schooling.

I've been to the US, and THEY have never had trouble understanding me. I studied in Melbourne, and the same remarkable phenomenon occured...everyone understood me.

So I have to ask....whoever told you that Singaporeans have trouble being understood abroad?

Unless you speak of "singlish" of course, which is pure gibberish to everyone but ourselves(because it IS gibberish). But hey, this is SGF, and to speak unkindly of the obviously stupid "language"(if it can even be called that) is pure blesphemy.
