Are you stupid or something? Is the Pink IC a legal document, recognized by all levels of the govt? If you answer yes to this, then simply ask Halimah to show you what race she is has in her IC. It will say Indian. Why? Because it follows the father's ethnicity. Even though the father is only a 50% contributor to her DNA. But of course, this very simple and legal way to verify a person's race is not acceptable to u. Since independence, every pink IC issued has followed the father's ethnicity, regardless of what permutation of mixed marriages you can come up with, and what ever 50-50 tie there is. U ask me which law? I ask u to simply look at any mixed race's IC. U have a friend who is 50-50 mix, ask them to show u their IC. U think Vivian's IC says chinese or Indian? Your PAP cocksucking is getting in the way of your logical thinking, if you had any in the first place.
This is what you stated:
The law says that in the event of a 50-50 tie, the deciding factor becomes the race of the father, which in Halimah's case means she is an Indian. Got it?
There's no law governing your claim that
"in the event of a 50-50 tie, the deciding factor becomes the race of the father". Absolutely none. Calling me "stupid", "PAP cocksucker", etc will not change this simple fact.
As Ho Peng Kee, then SMOS, Home Affairs, stated in Parliament on 12 January 2010 during his "
Ethnicity on Identity Card" response to Hri Kumar who had raised this "double-barreled race" issue as a parliamentary question,
"The Immigration & Checkpoints Authority (ICA) is not the authority or expert on "race" and that
"the Government does not assign race to a person but follows the general rule that a child's race would follow that of his or her father".
So, it's a
"general rule" following the social conventions of a patriarchal society that Singapore is, but not a
"law" as you claimed. Now, before you get all excited about "laws" vis-a-vis "rules", even this rule is not cast in stone and is flexible.
The Registration of Births and Death Rules do not require a child's race to be recorded. But if it is, it's done "provisionally". When the kid turns 15 and needs to register for an IC, race is then recorded. But the recorded race can be changed at any time by the parents or by the kid (after 21). It can be changed a max of two times (before and after 21 years).
Contrary to your claim, even before this double-barrelled option came into force on 01 January 2011, parents had the option to select either the father's or mother's race for their kid. That most opted for the father's is nothing more than a reflection of the social conventions of Singapore as a patriarchal society.
