Tiongs willingly come to SG to 打卡, but thereafter complain it's too expensive (WTF?!)

[Yumiko]

In my experience all Sinkies are also whiners.
Just look at the comprains here - all comprain comprain and comprain

The question then is are the Tiongs greater whiners than the Sinkies.
Who gets the gold medal.
I say beyond doubt it is the Sinkies who get the gold trophy.

But I can commend Sinkies for one very good trait -- they are very polite and helpful.
When I come to Singapore for a visit they are so kind to me -- maybe because I am handsome and they think I am not local.
lol

By the way is it true that most Tiongs live in Tiong Bahru and that is how Tiong Bahru got its name.

I again ask my lobot AI this question ---- is it true the Sinkies are whiners
lol


Singaporeans are widely perceived, even among themselves, as having a strong "complaint culture," leading some to be described as "whiners". This is often considered a "national pastime" and has been noted by both locals and the late Lee Kuan Yew, Singapore's founding father.
However, this perception is complex and can be seen in different ways:

• Desire for improvement: Many argue that complaining stems from high standards and a desire for continuous progress, serving as a way to keep the government and service providers accountable. When used constructively, complaints can lead to positive change, as authorities often respond to feedback.
• Social function and stress relief: Complaining can also be a social act, a way for people to bond over shared frustrations or relieve stress in a demanding urban environment. Online platforms with large complaint communities reflect this need for connection and validation.
• A "first world problem" attitude: Some observers suggest that because Singapore has a high quality of life, its citizens tend to complain about relatively minor issues (e.g., small food portions, minor public transport delays) out of a sense of entitlement or a lack of exposure to more significant problems in other countries.
• Online vs. offline behavior: People tend to express dissatisfaction more online, often under the cloak of anonymity. In real-life interactions, foreigners often describe Singaporeans in more positive terms like "friendly," "polite," and "hardworking".

In essence, while the tendency to vocalize dissatisfaction is a recognized cultural trait, it is often viewed by locals as a functional, albeit sometimes excessive, part of a society striving for excellence and accountability, rather than just aimless whining.

I now ask my lobot this question

Are Singaporeans or the Mainland Chinese greater whiners?
lol


Answer:

It is not possible to definitively state which group, Singaporeans or mainland Chinese, are "greater whiners," as this perception is largely subjective and influenced by cultural differences in communication styles and attitudes towards complaining.

Singapore has a reputation where people are generally vocal about everyday matters and public service issues, sometimes described with the local term "kiasu" (a fear of losing out) which can manifest as complaining to ensure fair treatment or high standards. The government even provides channels for public feedback and is generally responsive to citizens' complaints.

In contrast, cultural norms and government censorship in mainland China can influence how and where people express grievances. Public, direct complaints might be less common due to social and political sensitivities. However, the use of social media in China for public discourse and complaint is significant, often focusing on consumer rights, social issues, or local government performance, sometimes using coded language to bypass censorship.

Perceptions also differ: some Singaporeans perceive some mainland Chinese as loud or rude in public, while some mainland Chinese might perceive Singaporeans as less "complicated" or more orderly in public. Ultimately, "whining" is a value judgment, and the way complaints are expressed and perceived is culturally specific for both groups.

there are three types of china tourists.

one type go to your universal studio and buy souvenirs

another stays in our older hotels like Royal Hotel, Furama, etc and busy calling their contacts in Singapore to bring them go places of interests or buy them a meal. They claim that they are rich but don't use their money because our macdonalds or hawkers don't accept their wechat pay.

The rest just go take photo at the big globe outside universal studio, merlion, marina barrage and go back to their hotels in JB by midnight.

Actually it depends on where in China the tourist is from. The upper middle class and above loves to come here for vacation because they know they won't be fleeced or scammed like in their own country.

Trashy Tiongs also like to cut queue, and get very agitated if you (unintentionally) cut their queue.

A nation of overgrown infants, this book is a must-read if you wish to understand the psychology of Tiongs. Too bad there's no English translation of it.

 

[Gangster]

Let these Tiong bastard in. They will need to open their wallets, and when the money is in, we will cut them loose.
