So what's your ethnicity?Just asking out of curiosity.As I am
proud to proclaim,I am a chindian if anybody asks.I agree with you
on a lot of respects.I come from both sides of the fence,being
Chinese and Indian.I have felt torn between my cultures,until I
went to Australia to study,where I decided to embrace an Asian
identity,a Singaporean identity.I remember who I am,even though I
am westernised to a great extent.Watch "The Last Samurai".In the
end,the Emperor says words along that line.A very noteworthy thing
to keep in mind.
We are multiracial and multicultural,born of the sweat and blood of
Chinese,Malay,Indian,Eurasian and other migrants.We are a country
descended from the blood of migrants.I agree that Chinese are
favoured in some respects and that chinese culture is pushed too
much.No offense,for I myself am Half-Chinese,but seriously,the
Chinese in Singapore are as you put it "treated more equally than
others".
All I can say is that I fault LKY for this.He has done so much good
for the country,economically.But socially,the price we have paid is
enormous.We must know the value and we must know the price.
Now,I feel that Singapore is in a stage of transition,where the
soul of my people,the Singaporean people,is at a crossroads.I am a
part of that soul,as are every one of us.We make up its fabric.We
have to decide where the soul goes.For the long-term sake of my
nation which is my home.
[looking at above,you can see that the PAP propaganda worked on
me.I am a patriot who likes to wax poetic]
