It all began when some influencers in China nicknamed Singapore “Poxian”, as in Po County. The reason given was that Singapore is so small, it’s just like a county in their country.
It gained popularity among China’s netizens and they started using it as they found it cute. My fear and worry is that our younger generation may be influenced by this trend and we may start to call ourselves Po County too.
Singapore, being a sovereign state, should be respected and addressed the right way.
Being small means we run the risk of being bullied by others.
Singapore has been described as being the size of a booger, and has also been called a little red dot.
Singapore does look like a red dot on the world map. Little red dot does not mean anything derogatory, unlike Po County.
In fact, nowadays, Singaporeans, including politicians, also sometimes refer to Singapore as the little red dot.
I find it problematic, though, when radio DJs, television and publication advertisements use the phrase “islandwide” or “whole island”. It sounds like we are only islanders.
Although it is undeniable that Singapore is an island, it is perhaps better to use “countrywide” or “whole country”.
The right and correct way of addressing Singapore is as a country, not just an island.
Upholding Singapore’s pride is every citizen’s duty.

If you study history, you will realise that Admiral Cheng Ho visited Singapore many times several hundreds years ago before British arrival. So yes technically Singapore has achieved independence from UK but we are still under China rule
Even so, we should be under KMT mah
Its china's first step to making a claim to sinkie.
Sickipoora is totally irrelevant to the world except for PAP. It can disappear and no one gives a fuck.
PAP loves sucking CCP cock, Obama and Biden are all in the CCP's pockets, more than half the world is bending over to get fucked by communism
