Tag Archives: Racial Harmony

A little girl reciting the Singapore pledge fully in the Tamil language has been making the rounds again, especially in the wake of a divisive racially reserved election just days ago.

2 foreign Christian preachers cannot enter Singapore after their applications for short-term work passes to preach in the country were rejected.

A netizen shared this conversation with his son: Son: “Papa, why are some jobs and roles in Singapore defined by the skin colour or race?”

I was looking at the internet and came across pics of Miss Singapore beauty pageant that went viral and was thinking why other races are not there as well.

Omg Singaporeans, just shut up will you?! What's with the racial controversy lately? Started with ABTM audition and now its Bazaar? Did our forefathers dropped us on our heads when we were born? Is that why this generation doesnt know how to be sensitivite towards each other's culture and religion? Please respect, support & learn to understand one another. STICK TOGETHER morons, stick together. United we stand, divided we fall.

However, there is a requirement that the person they want for the job must be bilingual in Chinese and English because the boss can only understand Chinese. That is as good as saying "No Indians and Malays allowed! Fuck off!" What kind of country are we living in? Racial harmony, my ass! Why must local Indians and Malays be discriminated against just to suit the preferences of a Chinese person who is too dumb to learn English? Perhaps it is time for the Chinese boss to put down his chopsticks and start reading a dictionary. Do these Chinese chauvinists even know that the national anthem of Singapore is in Malay and the national language is Malay, not Chinese?

There is much talk from people about the imam from Masjid Jamae speaking about the battle against Christians and Jews. Many non-believer are quick to judge and worried about the "radicalize" Muslims in Singapore.

I am indeed very infuriated when young people in this day and age still link race and religion as the same thing. I am a native Chinese Muslim and by that I mean, my great-grand father was a Muslim when he migrated here from China and married a local Malay woman. Since then, we have always kept our surname and remained as Chinese and kept our faith.

Now, imagine being a typical Muslim who practices your religion peacefully, and just wants to live harmoniously with the people around you, yet you are in a climate where both online and in real life, the people you're close with who practices your religion are considered a threat without harming anyone, and you have to face being feared and tolerate looks of discomfort whenever you're around others.

CCK NTUC Food Fare hawker centre shop called "Go Mixed Rice" serving based on racial. Non chinese get only less vegetable, meat and rice compare to Chinese.
