<style></style>PM Lee said that in China & India it is given that one has to be assertive and aggressive to be a someone.Is that true?--Nah ! an absolute hogwash.Another meesiam mai hum boo boo lah.China and India are ancient cultures.A mark of man is not measured by his or her assertiveness and aggressiveness.But humility is.Even in local Malay culture the emphasis to tone down is given great importance.Only Ugly American are associated with assertiveness and aggressiveness.Even Europeans do not subscribe to such crass and crude culture.
Foreigners who display aggressiveness are usually at the bottom end in their motherlands.Peasants who had to fight for seats in trains.Just like the incident I witnessed some times a ago.A PRC who physically pushed aside an elderly Indian for the empty seat reserved for elderly in the MRT.--http://www.sammyboy.com/showthread.php?t=34167
Even in US when they found that Snakeheads fish native to China too aggressive to local fish they banned it.So why is PM lee defending the uncouth behaviors of foreigners?
