Catknight SG I find that Asians tend to be more emotional in funerals than angmohs... Is it cause of their culture and religion?I heard that one should be glad that loved ones departed from our world of sufferings, according to my teacher back then You do not see their emotions outright unlike asians who tend to be more weepy ...
FireIce SG got wat.... who say no have? maybe not as kpkb oni lah or when the whole thing over then go home and cry when nobardie see
Catknight SG Maybe it better not to be too emotional during funerals…life still goes on for the living
mancha SG I have never been to an ang moh funeral. Only see in movies and TV, and that also just acting one some more. Not a true representation.
sand king SG For me is, what the use to cry. Cry also the person wont come back right? And we should be happy that the bugger is going to heaven/paradise.
jondizzle foshizzle SG wtf...you make it seem that ang mohs are a completely different species and how their minds work is a total mystery to us. what you're saying is bullcrap btw, they're no different from asians when it comes to funerals.
Intel Inside SG angmohs are less emotionally attached to their family members…they dun really care alot bout parents..they think their parents giv birth to then so its their right to raise them, and they dun need to repay coz its the parents duty.
798 SG dun cry doesnt mean not sad of losing their loved one. we, buddhists r told not to cry when our loved one passed away, this is to prevent the dead of having idle thot of living in this world, thus causing him to rebirth in life n death cycle again.
annoy-you-must SG I got see from TV lorh. When the ang moh hold funeral at the graveyard, it always rain, then everybody will be wearing black and holding a black umbrella.
Intel Inside SG oh yea i remembered….most of em believe in god so…yeah “they gone to heaven to join the lord, something to be happy about”
Pitot SG i dont know where u all see it from but all the funerals of i have been too i see them cry. they are more emotional as a people compared to us asians and for various reasons like what 798 stated above, i have always thought that they cry far more than us.
Cool-gal SG i think they are more emotional la. u see those disasters happening, they always hold some silence moment n cry. but i think they are less attached to their parents cos its their 'tradition' to move out after reaching certain age, then it is all by themselves.
