the word china was a collective word for Chinese vase. Why should the Chinese let the West change their country name to suit their calling?

Why call Singapore when the island has its original name Temasek?

After 2016 and PAP gone time to get rid of Pommy street names and revert back to local flavours.

Get rid of British colonial stinks.
 
Nah,,that is calling it with the hokkein dialect,,and hokkeins are crude and vulgar,,i prefer it to be called in the best dialect of them all,,Cantonese,,,and we will call it 'Tong Shan'.

China should be called TiongCock.

Agreed,I always tell my Chinese friends that China should demolish all the colonial buildings in the Bund 外滩of Shanghai to erase the past humiliation!Same thing here,we should also tear down all those colonial govt buildings!Imagine how satisfying the angmo will think when they see their heritage implanted here in Asia!What a shame!
 
To all you dudes who seek comfort in olden ways:

When you or your offspring get married, do not put on a two/three piece suit. Go don your whatever dynastic ceremonial dress and get your other half to bind their feet. For heaven's sake do not look at these changes as westernisation, rather see it was modernisation.

Cheers!
