LKY - Sinkies don't miind 'new faces' - just that they don't speak Engrish!

[Confuseous]

Mr Lee said that Singaporeans are not unhappy about the "new faces" here, but about "new voices who cannot speak English". He emphasised that English is the working language here and Mandarin a second language. Anything otherwise would have caused Singapore to fall apart, said Mr Lee.

"Dialects have gradually faded away, and will continue to fade away, even in China," he said.

Mr Lee proposed that clan associations consider attracting new immigrants from China to participate in their activities. "With government help, we can teach them simple English for modest fees so that they can integrate into Singapore society with greater ease."

Pommy is getting to be lazy people so why learn their language when Chinese still dominate Asian speaking.

They really need to give the person who provide them the information the boot.

The analysis of the ground feeling is totally wrong! It has nothing to do with the language!

It like local keling and local chinky both speak English but they still dun like each other. However, both still find it acceptable as the culture and upbringing environment is somehow similar.

For the foreigners, they are totally different. What does it got to do with language? Amercians speak English but I still hate them because they are so full of themselve and rowdy after drinking a bit of beer. Those Ah-Tiongs are loud, ill mannered and dirty. They have no moral and are causing problems to families...

At the rate of the wrong information given, PAP will lose more seats at the next election.

There is also a double standard practiced by the PAP. As someone pointed out NS for locals & jobs for foreigners. PAP is giving freebies to "help" foreignes while expecting locals to make sacrifices.
