SINGAPORE - Crescent Girls' School student Amritha Devaraj has been an avid fan of xinyao singer-songwriter Jimmy Ye for years, so when her Higher Chinese teacher encouraged her to sign up with friends for a national xinyao competition last year, she seized the opportunity.

Amritha, now 16, performed at the National Schools Xinyao Singing and Songwriting Competition this year - this time on her own - and emerged champion of the singing (solo) category.

CECA! CECA! CECA! CECA! CECA! CECA!
 
Chinese should leave singapura to the founders and original inhabitants.they have returned,
 
her past life must be peasant chick in hokkien province tasked with singing songs to farmers to slave on under the sun and in the muddy field full of human shit used as fertilizer.
 
Even the authentic PRCs lost to her in the competition? The results must be rigged to show that Singapore is melting pot.

Please invite the winner to national day rally.
 
I congratulate her for mastering the Chinese language and singing so well too; unlike so many detractors who only know how to talk cock about all things Chinese. :biggrin:
 
Xinyao is dead... it's a phase of contemporary music in Sinkieland, not unlike disco or 1980s retro etc.

Why the bureaucrats insist on reviving it, even occasionally co-opting it into the NDP propaganda, is a mystery. Do they honestly think this endears the Sinkie Chinese folks to this island, gives them a sense of national identity and cohesion? :roflmao:
 
Absolutely agree and I am with you on this. :thumbsup:

Xinyao is passe. Great China has no lack of culture of her own and no need for folksy ching ching sing alongs.
