Surprisingly 'racist' Singapore

Clivebenss SG

It's a matter of luck of meeting the wrong people at the wrong place at the wrong time. So if you feel your luck is better in Kuala Lumpur or somewhere else go there. There are places in the world I had been only once because I feel out of place and don't fit in or out of luck then.

Just don't label everything as racism as every race have their good and bad.

I did not mention all chinese are racist but I did experience racism while in Singapore, this is mentioned in the post. For those who mentioned to trace me or my IP, you need not trace me since I can voluntarily show up whenever needed. I meant whatever mentioned in the post.

If you are really concerned about my post, you should have first traced Bus driver of Sri Maju mentioned above who had abused me definitely due to my race, trace the flight attendants of Tiger Airways who totally ignored queries of Indian passengers but was interested in serving the Caucasian passengers. Trace the people in MRT, Restaurants and other public places who threw racists comments, abuses on other races.

And most of all if you really care, eliminate racism from your society like job market and housing arena. This is the complaint from the local minorities like Indians and Malays and not from me. They mentioned to me how hard it is for a non-Chinese to get a proper job in Singapore.

Those who are targeting me for writing my Experience is clearly a case of like vilifying the victim. What I realized during my stay is that behind the modern glitz and glamour facade of Singapore there remains the stark reality of racism.

come on so many excuses. you yourself are racist and now scare ISA check twist and turn. go back to where yu cum from. i am sure you are not a talent we want. even if youare a less than 1k 1 also no good. go back to the whole where you cum from

troublemaker2005 SG

he must be unlucky to meet so many nasty people or he is nasty to many people who then reacted nastily.

nope. his country havbe to overcum racism then he can live there happily. here or sgreans most are indeed worried sick of their own jobs. so its normal, not racism. this guy cannot fathom wher and how reactions are created, the r=true law of cause and effect. just cum her babble nonense - all push to racsim. anythin bad is racism, lucky sg is very firmly rooted on the race thing, if not if its from where he cum from, one guy say racism - all the idots troublemakers riot and make excuse to create violence in teh coountry already. cheap trick!

Ts, how do you know that they treated you as such because of your race, and not other reasons? They edited you original post.

troublemaker2005 SG

these people are like that one. if they belong to a mo=inority race, they will use their minority, racism as the reason for brgianing in any bad situation. its like saying 'i belong tominority race, give way to me.'.

that;s why i also see these people and the cheena no up. alwasy use this as excuse so we must always giv way to them. cheena also, alwasy say jap never apologize to them lah this lah that lah - i think they should reflect on their own whether they did the best before history happended. too many 'tactical' retreat.

Ad phrase for Singapore states “Surprising Singapore” and yes Singapore will provide you with surprises but perhaps unpleasant surprise of racism may be last thing you had in mind.

I am an Indian and I am writing here to express my concerns regarding the racist experiences I felt from Chinese Singaporeans during my Singapore Trip recently. The Chinese Singaporeans are never willing to assist an Indian asking for directions and you are made to feel as not welcome. I am sure they will react differently to other travellers. I experienced a rudely reacting Bus driver when I mentioned I do not have the exact change and thankfully an Indian passenger came to rescue. If the driver could have said it in a proper manner it would not had mattered at all.

Chinese Singaporean seems rude and always ready for a fight at a drop of a hat. This instance happened when I took a bus from Singapore to Genting highlands in Malaysia (Bus was of Sri Maju transport departing from Golden Mile Complex, Singapore). Bus after entering Malaysia halted for a while at a point for refreshments and I also got down. When I came back I saw the bus standing but the passenger entry door was closed and with the driver or attendant nowhere to be seen. Not just me but other passengers who got down was not able to get in. We waited for about 20 min in scorching cold after which the Chinese driver came at his leisurely pace. I was the first one to complain since I had waited longer even though there were other passengers who were stranded. The driver who saw an Indian complaining started abusing me in his local lingo (of course he did not know a bit of english) and somehow using his sign language mentioned that it is you who are at fault of not opening the door. All the passengers tried open the door but was not successful. Then driver got to know that the driver had mistakenly locked the door and finally he had to unlock it from inside. Even after being his fault, the driver started abusing me for no reason and when I reacted he was ready for a fight!!! I had to back off from that instance and ignored him and got into my seat. I am sure what provoked him was that an Indian complained against him and not the complaint or the fault with himself.

The indifference does not stop here, in malls or in reception of hotels or at other places, I had experienced differential treatment especially to Indians in Singapore. When I ask for food in restaurants, they are not willing even answer some genuine questions. All the racism in a country that publicizes itself as a multi racist- multi religious society!! I clearly mention Chinese Singaporeans because the Indians or Malays I came across in Singapore were not discriminatory. The western tourists whom I came across were more tolerant and accommodating than the local Chinese.

I spoke to a couple of citizens of Indian origin in Singapore and they said there is racism prevailing in job sector and in housing societies too with the Chinese being preferred over Indian and Malays. There seems to be no concept of equal opportunities for all at least not in job market. One of the politicians wanted bring in Chinese immigrants over other nationalities and make Mandarin the predominant language.

A note to mention here, I went to Genting highlands and Kualalampur in Malaysia. Genting seems to be a la Singapore with majority Chinese tourists there but definitely the treatment was better . In Kualalampur , the people were extremely hospitable , welcoming and willing to assist. I would give a Thumbs up for hospitality from people of Malaysia and total thumbs down for Chinese Singaporeans for their racist attitude.

So you met a few high on steriods , overly sensitive , yellow skin and came here to gain some sympathises is it sweetie? Let me find a sack large enough where you can hold all the fucks i give.

Incase you think racism exist only in singapore , why don't you look at our dear friend malaysia. The government only caters towards it natives and exempt priveliges from the chinese.

If a muddy shit face came up to me asking for direction or stupid questions that isn't about me in board daylight , i wouldn't be too pleased about it either.In fact i would be thinking what his head would look like on a pike throughtout the conversation and walk on after he shut his rubber lips up.

Erm, Genting Highlands is a resort, oh course they will treat you well.

Hey, just saying, some of the Indians I met there have the "superiority complex". They expect to get serve 1st, wait for a few minutes complain, expects to get the room 1st, etc. and apparently, you have it too, huh?

Uraniumfish SG

Also, if you go to any society, majority of the majority will be arrogant pricks, especially when they are so freaking ignorant, living in their smelly little yellow pimple of a Chinese paradise that is Singapore.

They do not exempt priveliges from the chinese, they give priveliges to Malays.
