Most of it caused by the govt, idiot - reckless immigration policies resulting in overcrowding, inadequate infrastructure (transport, F & B, social services) and increased demand for residential property (both private & HDB) - a whole host of regressive taxes: COE, GST, water conservation tax...

Linguistic affiliation is not necessarily tied to genetic affiliation. The majority of Guangdong/Guangxi residents share more DNA haplotypes with modern-day Viets (all part of the ancient Yue kingdom) than with northern Chinese, but the former speak a Han language (Sino-Tibetan branch) while the...

The whole of peninsular Malaysia including Singapore and the Riau islands is Tanah Melayu lah. The more important question is: how far back in history do you want to go to realistically make a claim on ancient territory? Should the US be returned to Native Amreicans? Australia to the...

There's no genocide in Xinjiang - that's a lie spun by the Western media. There are Uighurs fighting for separatism, some of them resorting to violence and terrorism - they are arrested and put into re-education camps. Some may be tortured for information on accomplices. Compared with...

If this is not bullying, what is? The gulf has always been named the Gulf of Mexico because all the lands surrounding it were formerly part of Mexico - Texas, California, Nevada, New Mexico, Arizona... and of course present-day Mexico. The US under Trump is making China look like a pussycat...

This is so typical of the white entitlement mentality that ang mohs exhibit wherever they go in the non-white world. Now even immigrants in these white countries are behaving like their ang moh compatriots. Kudos to the Malaysian police. In Singapore he'd be let off with a warning; if he were...

Get more oppo in first. When your reach the magical 1/3 Parliamentary seats mark, the PAP cannot change the constitution willy-nilly anymore to bolster its hold on power. Also when there is 1/3 oppo in Parliament, all it takes is one more election for a change in govt, like Malaysia. That's...

Doesn't work in Singapore. The PAP govt will just fix you. Anyway, protests don't change the govt, only your votes will. Just 1/3 of parliamentary seats to the opposition and the PAP will wake up.

Apart from the regressive taxes, the main driver of inflation in Sg is rental overheads, which affect everything from F & B to retail to kindergartens to housing. The govt is the largest landowner in Singapore, and it's eminently within their means to control inflation via land pricing. But as...

He might not make four years; he might be assassinated. That Trump is good for America is a just myth that should have been obvious to everyone after his first term. Americans never figured in his plans; it's always about himself and his cronies.

Don't be too sure. He won the election on the back of 3 promises: reduce inflation, stop war, reduce immigration. He has already failed on 2 counts, and it's not even 100 days into his reign. He's already made himself (and the US) the laughing stock of the world with his summary policies which...

My Hakka contractor from Seremban speaks fluent Tamil to his workers because he grew up in an Indian Kampung. In Chinese predominant areas, many Indian and some Malay parents send their children to Chinese-medium schools. An example is the famous Malaysian singer Mohan who was schooled in a...

Agree. When I was visiting Target malls and Walmart in the States, 99% of the stuff there was made in China. And this was 15 years ago. That's why import tariffs will always work against the Americans, because they are by the world's largest net importer and consumers, plus they've basically...
