People with English names are often nicer than those with Chinese names

Mainly the alumni of Catholic High and St Nicks.
We were a British colony. So English – more precisely British – names predominate here. That said many English names have German (English is a Germanic language), French and Latin roots. And some are derivatives of Biblical names.
Now we tend to generalize again. Aren't we? Is generalization a Singaporean trait? :-)
Most of them get the names from Bible if they are Paul-Christians. But some non-Christian Ah Beng used John and Peter which make me laugh at them.
Not all angmo names are in the bible lah!

You find many of these in the alumni of ACS, SJI and CHIJ. They take pride (during my time) in failing their Chinese. An F9 grade is considered more prestigious than an S7 or C6 grade.
agreed, dude. i was from SJI and none of the students were concerned about their mandarin (or lack thereof). I learnt my mandarin in the KTVs.
Couple Of Points:
1. Absolutely Agree. I am with you on this.
2. The nicest are those with Two English Names. LOL.

Do you agree?
The Sinkie have this characterisitc of generalization that came about from their ruling Masters.
Just like their dictatortial rulers that dictate that Sinkie over 55 cannot manage their retirement funds, Sinkie on the other hand generalise that those who have are FTs are not ppl that are desirable or beneficial to them.
It's a Sinkie trait. And this is just the tip of the iceberg of how much of a hypocrites Sinkie are, when it comes to their own kind of behavior.
You mean Barack Obama sounds nicer than Xi (or Eleven) Jiping?
Are you telling me Tony Tan doesnt have a PRC attitude while LHL/Pinky does?
Yeah there's nothing more wrong than a chinese having a chinese name. The non Christians are like the Anglo dog old fart. But even he does not use Harry anymore
that's ace kindredZEN cheong to you.
