Seriously
whats with this uncle.
He scolded the Aunty from China selling steamboat that she should
speak in English because this is Singapore and that he don't
understand Chinese. Seriously? Your ancestors not made in China?
Daily Rantz"
The uncle is from which ethnic group?
Why chinese in Singapore must use colonial english language to
speak in Singapore?
English was the language used by colonial elites like the
peranakans and eurasians, meaning people like Harry Lee Kuan Yew
and Michael Palmer. This is the legacy of british colonialism that
has not been eradicated in Singapore. We are still "trapped"
in a colonial system.
I think that is wrong.
