PM Lee: What future do you want for Singapore?
-
Huh? I thought Msia has more Malays than Spore? :scratchhead: .... then, there shouldn't be any integration problem for her, right?
From what I know, Msia also multi-cultural and multi-racial society huh, no? -

Well said, 3boys. And yup, fully agree.
I think it's a little harsh too. But the political climate is such, very difficult to carry such baggage. Right now if you work for civil service or quasi-governmental agency, better keep well beyond the pale.
Our society is very harsh and mean-spirited, both Amy Cheong and her critics are embodiment of that. In another forum, there is all this vitriol about her being married to a foreigner, all spoken without irony despite the fact that it is exactly the same kind of racism and stereotyping that the protagonist is at fault for. -

I just realised that I had used the phrase \"beyond the pale\" in the complete opposite way from what it should be.
