Nope.
That one is two surnames, not names.

If you are really worried about your singaporean daughters marrying foreigners, there are 2 chaps you can talk to.
Both their daughters married foreigners.
I'm not worried at all.

I didn't know he was a Chink! All along I thought he was a keling apologist who wished he had slant eyes! He nicked his name in Rafstafuck when he was stoned I think.

Thank you for all your efforts to justify wearing a European name and I guess you must be a employee yourselves.I admire lky even his family member are not wearing any .!This is what I call boss or king mentality. You continue to behaving like a slave..........

No wonder Ho Ching said before that only Chinese waiters/waitresses are made to wear European names!

Easy for you to say. Try living in an angmo country where their systems don't accept Chinese characters with a name like Chong Long Dong. Even in SG, we already have some hilarious names after translating the Chinese characters into dialect names.

Are most Chinese able to decipher the Chinese characters behind the name Kuan Yew without having first read it in Chinese? If not, how is Kuan Yew a Chinese name? He might as well have called himself Harry because Kuan Yew does not mean anything to most Chinese who use the Hanyu Pinyin system. See the problem there? Having everybody use Mandarin Hanyu Pinyin solves part of the problem but it is still a poor substitute for the actual Chinese characters. I simply see no point in translating Chinese characters into the alphabet. I would rather keep my Chinese name pure and have those who can't read Chinese address me by some other name than to have some kind of bastardised Chinese name.

In China, taxis are called 出租车 or 计程车 and not 德士, and that is the way the language should be kept pure. That means not trying to translate terms based on how they sound in another language.

I know. I can't imagine reading out a person's name (a usual habit of mine) when receiving his business name card when his name spells Lau Chee Hong. Would rather just call him Joe or Don.

Cheers!

Other than those who've adopted Christianity as their religion, it could be just out of convenience/ease or a trend to associate with modernity. They still retain their surnames used behind their chosen western name. Not just the Chinese, other Asian races like Japanese, Thai, and even Indians too. Eg. Joe Lingam, Tony Kawai, blah blah.

What I don't see is Chinese adopeting keling names, eg. Raja Chan.

Cheers!

How come only chinese are singled out for having western names?

Just going by his statements; some time ago, a poll was done in this forum (I think it was during the Delphi days) and everyone claims to be speaking the truth. BTW, everyone is Singapore is educated, even taxi drivers!

Cheers!
