who likes japanese here?

[laksaboy]

The Japanese are neat, polite and hygienic.
The Japanese respect intellectual property and trademark laws.
When something bad happens, Japanese leaders hold a press conference, bow and make a public apology.
When a Japanese man knocks someone down, he will stop the car and render assistance to that person.
When a Japanese product is defective, the manufacturers issue a recall.


The PRC Tiongs are untidy, crass and unhygienic.
The Tiongs do not respect intellectual property and trademark laws.
When something bad happens, Tiong leaders pretend there is no problem at all, or push blame onto others.
When a Tiong man knocks someone down, he'll run over the victim a few more times because dead people don't demand compensation.
When a Tiong product is defective, the Tiong manufacturers don't care.



Mao's Cultural Revolution had fucked up the PRC Tiongs in more ways than you can imagine.

I also like.

Before BJ, they bow formally to you first .... and then followed by fast and furious bowings .... thereafter !!:o

yes they will suck you dry and clean you up till your last cum drop, and afterwards still apologize sheepishly because they still feel their service is not up to your satisfaction

Why don't you start seeing people as individuals instead of lumping them according to nationality, skin, colour etc? Are all Singaporeans bad?

Fair comment. Guess it's also human to generalise (and to get carried away with) the characteristics with any race. Like lepak mats, loud PRCs etc etc ...and even kiasu singkies.

On food alone, give Japanese (more civilised if I can put it) over Korean (can't stomach kimchi which pervades everything). Another bloke may feel reverse, just to illustrate my pov.

Contrast with middle kingdom more than evident

japanese is not perfect too same like the rest of other nationality . they are like robot , they follow law too much and they cant speak up for what they believe in among their friends . they are afraid of making ppl sad or angry if they say the wrong word ...they are afraid to express their feeling . and most of them are follower rather then leader . for example , i was waiting at the traffic light among a japanese crowd waiting for it to turn green . after waiting for about 2mins i find that theres no cars around so i just cross the road ..suddenly all of them start to follow me ...before that one one dare to cross the road even theres no cars .

most polite = Japs, Thais
rudest = Koreans, Hongkys, French, British
smelliest = Indians
most kiasi = Sinkies

Not all, my boss actually left Japan and lived here. he actually requested the transfer to our division here. There are a lot of Japanese in Sydney, I think a lot are aware of their cultural tendency to "follow". As usual, the quitters are the ones that doesn't like where they are from and are willing to follow their ideal life.

Consensus decision making (for important stuff, boss have final word but still go through the motions). Can never really say no face to face, can even nod the head... and do same thing again after business meeting. Kns, wonder if they mean yes ...how do they say? Nod the head vigorously or??

most kiasi = Sinkies

Maybe kia boh too?

When they are pissed off they become even more polite. If they start bowing even more you know they are about to reach their limit.

i'm very impressed with how the ordinary japanese reacted and helped one another during the aftermath of the 2011 tsunami. small biz owners opened up their shops to provide free meals, yakuzas driving over 12 hours to devastated areas to deliver truckloads of necessities despite radiation risks, and retirees volunteering to go into the nuclear reactors so that younger workers need not endanger themselves.

the ww2 is a long time ago. while i am enraged with the atrocities committed by the jap army, it has passed. the japanese i know now are kind, helpful, considerate and have more integrity than most other nationalities.

as for prc... prefer not to say.

yes , i agree with you not all ...but the percentage is very high . because most of the japanese quitters can speak simple english and have seen the world before deciding to quit japan ...but most of the japanese cant speak english and still very " japanese " .

agree with you ...thats why if non-japanese want to do biz with the japanese they must know their thinking and culture ...if not confirm biz fail . their "yes " sometimes can means " no " .

that's perhaps my only gripe about them. they don't like to say no; this can be very frustrating for "gaijin" like us.

 

[Ash007]

Indeed, the same could probably be applied to "Sinkies" as well. I've reached the stage where it doesn't matter if you stay or leave, as long as you can lead a happy life. Japan probably has a lower quitter rate then Singapore like you mentioned and conformity is a bigger culture there. The interesting thing is their opposition actually won the last election, so change maybe down the road sooner then you think. 50 more years?

[cheowyonglee]

Why you like Japanese more than prcs, pinoys ah nehs or angmos?

Have you forgotten ww2 how many of our ancestors were slaughtered, murdered or raped?

Did prcs pinoys ah nehs or angmos did all these things to you?

Who is more evil?

So open your eyes my friends!

Dun be blinded by your own ignorance.

And who caused the culture revolution???KNN!!!

 

[presssomemore]

There was a joke...

Because the japs raped so many women around the world during WW2, they were made to sign a secret agreement during their surrender.
The agreement is that they have to make porn movies of their women for the rest of the world to see, forever and ever.
