You go to any corporate meeting involving foreigners and if the Singaporean is not the ranking person or leader of the Singaporean delegation in the room, he will not speak up if it involves a contentious issue. Singaporeansn are noted for their quiet compliance coupled with industry and high quality of work. Arguing a point of view, facing up to patently wrong measures and fighting for the meek is is completely foreign to a Singapore. Its does mean his moral campass is missing, confrontation and engagement has been worked out of the DNA.

You just have to look at this forum. Even the ones with quality will take sides as they do not want to offend anyone. When banning occurred, suddenly it was small matter. As bus 64 never bothered to suck up to anyone, he became toast.

In a road accident, the Chinese and Indians will think before they move. The Malays will stop motorbike, makchik will drop her market bag and readily help. I have seen a makchik blast the Indian FT parents of kids playing on a shopping mall escalator. Everyone else whabodoh. .

You can forget about going to war. In a real life scenarios at least 10% will mysteriously be stuck in shanghai, Perth, bangkok London etc. Then you find all the families of elites flown to various locations on chartered flights.

The guy responsible is wrong in desecrating a place of worship.However he has guts compared to the ball less Silliporeans who only know how to moan and groan about the influx of FT's and yet did nothing about it.Very often I'm the only one in my estate who went to confront the socially irresponsible Pinoys who dance and scream till 3 am or the anti social Indian FT's who let their kids yell and shout in common areas throughout the day.I sometimes shake my head in bewilderment at those Silliporeans most of whom have served NS and yet behave meekly infront of foreigners who steal their jobs and make housing unaffordable et al.What happened to all the former combat trained soldiers,not to mention Commandos, Guardsman, Rangers and the NDU's.If they dare or cannot take on a middle aged Indian, Mainland Chinese or pot bellied Pinoy, what's going to happen when the crunch comes-i.e in battle.Mabye I forgot, they coud have taken the cue from the R Admiral who beat a hasty retreat when faced with low level floods near his house, sorry I mean ponding.
