PM Lee Hsien Loong said that Singapore has good levels of English and Mandarin because the government had decided not to promote the use of dialects.
He was speaking at the Speak Mandarin Campaign, where he reiterated that the government would not be returning to a focus on dialect. He said that the current language policy was "sound".
"When we first introduced our bilingual policy," Mr Lee said in Mandarin, "we did so knowing that it was very difficult for most people to master English, Mandarin and dialects at the same time. This principle has not changed."
He spoke about how there are trade-offs to be had and trying to learn too many languages will result in the standards across all the languages dropping.
Mr Lee explained that this would then have an impact on future opportunities.
Allowing dialects to be used more widely is not the most practical approach, he explained, and he implied that Mandarin would be good enough to preserve Singaporeans' culture.
However, PM Lee did admit that there is still some room for dialects and the government could permit their use in certain circumstances. One example is the dialect videos produced to explain the Pioneer Generation Package to older Singaporeans.

Dialects will be fine if needed to win votes. By the way anyone knows if there are videos in Malay and Tamil ?

Tell this Hakka fucker not to insult hokkien language. Go screw and extinct his own Hakka shit dialect and root but leave hokkien alone.

Many Japanese and Chinese words come from hokkien, eg dian hua in native Jap is tian wei in hokkien.

Tang dynasty is ruled by hokkien people and 唐朝 and 唐人 is hokkien lang. Many hokkien 唐人 went over to Jap island and teach the native Jap to read write in Chinese words. Where do you think the Japs knows Chinese words.

Tell theis fucker Hakka shithead not to destroy hokkien. He can fucked and extinct his own Hakka clan dialects and who fuck care.

Hokkien are the best.

Reason his father banned dialects is cos his family can't speak a word of dialect from birth as they are peranakan anglophiles! When his father saw how Lim Chin Siong carried the crowds away with Cantonese and Hokkien, he knew he had to ban them or else he could never have a chance to win. The family has always been hijacking the national agenda for its own selfish ends.

Dumping dialects was an excellent decision. It shows what great foresight the government has.

His father destroyed dialects... just like he had destroyed free press and real labour unions.

However, PM Lee did admit that there is still some room for dialects and the government could permit their use in certain circumstances. One example is the dialect videos produced to explain the Pioneer Generation Package to older Singaporeans.

Fuck you and your Pioneer Generation Package. How about free-to-air radio and tv programs? Malaysia has them.

HK TVB dramas sounded strange when watching in mandarin.

You don't have to promote dialects but why do you have to kill it?

You are destroying our thousands years of Chinese culture and heritage.

You are assuming people cannot handle more than one of two languages or dialects?

Maybe they are the minorities?
