As a visitor to Singapore from the United Kingdom this summer, I am struck by the lack of attention given in this bicentennial year to the role of colonial Britain in shaping Singapore.
It is true that the British messed things up in so many ways.
They treated other races like second-class citizens, they were utterly incompetent in defending the island from the Japanese and they committed atrocities such as the Batang Kali massacre. But it wasn't all bad.

Mr Lee Kuan Yew is often credited with being the founding father of Singapore, but where was that great mind trained? At Raffles Institution, a British school founded by Sir Stamford Raffles, at the London School of Economics and at Cambridge University in Britain.
Singapore is right to be a proud and independent multiracial state free of the shackles of colonialism, but it is now big and powerful enough to give credit where credit is due.

The British colonial masters had left behind much impressive architecture.

And many road/place names were named after the Brits.

In fact, the Brits were one of the better colonial masters, another better colonial master would be the Dutch. Much improvements in infrastructure, sanitation, literacy etc. It would have been different (worse off economically) if the French or Spanish had been in charge.

Considering how fucked up the UK has become, Dr Daniel Emlyn-Jones (I want google to pick this up) wants to remind us how great his country once was. He needs to be reminded how the Brits plundered every country they colonised. And due to their arrogance, ruthlessness and incompetence, they've had to give up or be driven out of their former colonies.

You are not welcome in Singapore, you dumbfuck racist white trash. Go back to your cold, wet, miserable country, and suck on your mushy peas. And your queen and the rest of your useless royal family.

uh no.... the Dutch were not it. The Spanish neither. French I dunno. Maybe the Portuguese. But Dutch are 3nd from bottom after the Spanish and the Belgians.

British man chicken out: I was wrong
28/08/2019

After being lambasted by Singaporeans for telling them to be grateful to his country Britain for colonising Singapore, the British man chickened out and wrote a non-apology saying that he was wrong.

While he was caught offguard at the responses of Singaporeans who certainly did not look like they appreciate British colonial slavery, Daniel Emlyn-Jones stopped short of issuing an apology, and merely said he had “learnt a great deal”:

“I wrote a letter suggesting that colonial Britain should be given more credit for shaping Singapore (Don’t forget role of colonial Britain in shaping Singapore, Aug 24). I thank Forum contributors for their responses to this letter, from which I have learnt a great deal.”

Afraid of further criticisms and even actions from the authorities, the British coward waxed lyrical about “friendship” and contradicted himself saying that both countries “should forget their past”:

“The best way for different cultures and nations to learn more about one another is through friendship, and I sincerely hope that once the embarrassing mess of Brexit is over, Britain and Singapore can forget the past and deepen their friendship as they move together into the future.”

The Briton signed off himself as a “Dr”, but it is unknown how he attained his title with the two confusing messages he published on the national newspaper.

So you are saying the British empire is to us what the Roman empire was to them?

Colonialism under the UK brought some benefits but they pale in comparison with the shit and baggage they left behind and of course they always have the upper hand.
