  • the student is a nerd honestly. Yes she shouldnt represent Singapore but it aint that suprising to commit a crime anyways lols. He make it looks as though he hasnt done anything wrong in his life lol.

  • dude claire is hot. lol.

  • haiz..she is just as bad...

  • HAHAHA! At leasr Ris is good looking then some of the errr (girl?) in the video. LOL

  • Tats y singlish carries an accent of Malay.anyway, she's definitely beta than ris low.her luck too

  • Singapore's mother tongue is Malay dudes =.=" Anyway Claire did not speak perfect English either. And she's not pretty at all. Her interview sounds fake and is similar to Ris Low's. She was hesistant when it comes to her course of study too, but why isn't anyone pointing to that fact? Just are people por-ing her just because Ris Low has made a mistake? Lol. I don't like Ris Low either , but I don't see why people feel that Claire should get the throne.

  • We are discussing abt our country's affair here. Shut ur gap and stop condemning our language. U whites can't speak Gd English too and at times. Wrong tenses were used. Shame to Tat. At least our mother's tongue is mandarin so it's pardonable as compared to an English speakg bkground who can't speak perfect English.

  • @yeoje88 Some minor corrections here. Singapore's mother tongue is NOT only mandarin. We recognise 3 other official languages, aside from English. These include Malay, Tamil and Mandarin. In fact, our national anthem is still sung in Malay and our military commands are still done in Malay. Please do be very careful with the potrayal of Singapore. We are after all, very much, a multiracial and multiracial country. Thanks!

  • SINGLISH

  • the student is a fag.

  • Miss World doesn't need to speak well in English, but Miss World Singapore Yes...because she needs to represent Singlish or English?Or maybe the way she speaks Singlish is like representing Singapore.

  • I don't understand why they didn't choose claire lee in the first place...she surpasses ris lee in looks, speech and the way she carries herself... at least her answers are all intelligent ones...

  • LOL WA MENG TI SONG <3

  • She's not even good looking.

  • The girl at 3:42 should be the one representing Singapore. 

  • 6:31 that long haired woman looks beauitful.

  • And you people down here who comment on people way of speak,Try go out there and speak.You singaporeans just like to talk shit.You people is just trash.Common Give people a chance.When you make mistake you xpected people to give you chance.But when people make mistak.You just type here and make Nonsense comment WAKE UP SINGAPOREAN,WAKE THAT SHIT MIND UP!

  • opinions 

  • Indeed many of us aren't able to speak good English, we should remember that ris low REPRESENTS Singapore. If we were to send someone that has a bad standard of English (or rather, inarticulate), that would definitely give the rest of the world an impression of the standard of English in Singapore.

    And about the public's comments, THEY have the RIGHT to do it in case you didn't know some forms of FREEDOM OF SPEECH exists.

    I'm sure proper English isn't necessary for someone to voice out their op

  • We try so hard to speak english with a slang, that is our definition of good english. and thats the type of english we like to see on tv or whatever.

    Ever thought why its ok for models of other nation eg russia, germany etc to speak broken english but still deem acceptable to us.

    Commercialized Nation.

  • Both Claire and Ris Low are not good at speaking English

  • wow seriously the guys saying that she needs to be dethroned talk like shit too..look at yourself first -.-'

  • claire is so much better xD

  • Congrats Claire Lim, you represent us better... no offense... :P

  • "we should be honest abourit"

  • whuuuut...... that so singaporean XD i think primary school students in sg speak better than adult singaporeans..... sound so auntie!

  • Interviewer, please take note: It looks strange to wear a strapless top because when the camera shows your head and shoulders only, you look like you're nude.

    (Congratulations to Ms Claire Lee - you're a much worthier country representative. All the best!)

  • wow this video is really embarrassing. this shows exactly how eloquent singaporeans are when they are spoken to. yeah i was local schooled, and i embrace the fact that singlish is a national language, but most of the interviewees spoke bad english and couldn't even come up with coherent answers. and they still have the balls to criticize ris low....

  • Comment removed

  • HAHAHA , 3:32 Wa meng tee in the background ! :DD

  • dishonest Singaporian - do they make other types?

  • God, what hypocrites Singaporians are, half of them are cheating crooks. Such a superficial money obsessed people.

  • @VanceJoudrey so , are u mocking us?

  • the woman at 1:30 even talks like ris low... shouldnt interview these kind of people. as auntie lucy says," sooo embarassing".

  • lmao the schoolboy in this vieo seems to speak like some elitism IMO =\

  • it's the judges not her at fault

  • in all seriousness although Ris low's standard of English is below average, it is definitely an indicator of how poor our command of English is. It's good that this has brought attention to the need for singaporeans to improve.

  • @emodolltrash But asians suck at English anyway, so what's the problem?

  • @JaymsStapleton GO N DIE

  • @xiaowangismydog What the fuck did I say wrong you filthy asian lowbreed

  • @JaymsStapleton hey douche , gtfo this video if you hate asians then . This video just did not show those who has a better vocab then u

  • @iEssential Obviously there are people with better vocabulary than me. Inferior animals like asians, however, dont.

  • @JaymsStapleton animals? lmao . fked up blonde kid why are u here in the first place . are your ancestors feral cats or what? whats your problem eh? asians are much smarter . fyi , the nexus between asians and english is strong. its just singapore accent that makes it sound eccentric .

  • @iEssential Or that inferior asians just plainly suck at English. Your barely understandable message and the ugly chinks in this video proved that =]

  • @JaymsStapleton thats just because it's better then yours. chinks? your using slang and u mock me?

  • @iEssential Nah why would I need to mock inferior asians? They are fucked up enough as it is.

  • @JaymsStapleton explain why singapore and japan are the united states of america's closest ally in asia then.

  • @iEssential yeah - closest allies in asia, but not closest allies in the world. Hope your inferior asian brain can tell the difference. singapore is smart enough not to hinder us from exploiting its strategic trade location as well as not taxing us. Anyone who does not say "no" to America can be our friend. As for japan, it keeps buying technology off us which keeps our money flowing.

  • @JaymsStapleton laugh at you immature racist 12 yr old boy. Is your stepfather asian?

  • @fuax I dont have a stepdad - but if I do have an asian one I'll make his inferior life hell just like any asian lowbreed scum I meet.

  • @fuax Stop wasting ur breathe on ppl like him. One day hes gona need to come to Asia and thats when hes gona get killed. Watch how the worlds economy one day majorally depend on Asia

  • @JaymsStapleton in the 2 english speaking countries- UK and US, the highest grades in their schools, colleges, and universities are dominated literally by asians... think again before u speak kid

  • @iEssential frking kid hiding behind the screen . keyboard warrior eh? i'll give you carnage in reality if i see u , bieber kid

  • Comment removed

  • @emodolltrash your looking down on singapore then?

  • @iEssential guess you missed the point. I said 'our' command of english. Im singaporean and I dont look down on singapore.

  • looks-wise she also ok only la...not that ris is prettier though.

    OMG, it's just "hello, my name is xxx", how is that fantastic?!! be trillingual (sp?), then i'll respect u more

  • Singaporeans honest meh? fing BS lah..

  • a lot of accents

  • claire abit gud onli

  • you think she should get it meh ??? meh ???

  • is she in prison by any chance?or was she spared because she gave up her crown?

  • RIS LOW SUCKSSSS

  • Bunch of hypocrites sia our people.

  • @gyro0 Not particularly. We are not happy with her on stage because she is not suitable as a public figure, a representative of Singapore. You don't see our prime ministers and members of parliament speaking such atrocious english now, do you? Her criminal past as well is not tolerable nor acceptable as an ambassador for Singapore. Hypocrites? I don't think so. We're only hypocrites if we say she's not good enough and we go for the contest with equally bad command of english.

  • she said " like like like like like" sooo mani times.

  • what the claire lee trying to do? keep blinking the eye for wat ...not even mesmerizing

  • its ok if she dun speak that well but she committed a crime....that is very disgraceful....

  • @gextereme27

    hahaha .. yes , there is people who speak same english in some parts , but they are confident and not representing sg in public .. Just nervous .. No one is prefect , not even me .

  • wow aerospace engineer? she has my respect

  • anyway people, our country is called SinGApore and not SinGHApore...

  • damn i would want to be there to have my say on ris. i would have criticised the judges that actually CHOSED her

  • LMAO DUDE LOOK HOW THOSE PPL TALK...THEY TALKED JuS LIKE RIS LOW AND THEY DARE COMMENT ON HER.WOW

  • @gsextreme27 only one people talked like her.

  • @gsextreme27 welcome to singapore, though i'm a singaporean I really do detest how most of us talk, it really turns foreigners off

  • @xiaowangismydog yeah totally agree!

  • @gsextreme27 cos no matter what ppl say, SIngaporeans do NOT speak English properly

  • @gsextreme27 disagree totally.. i tink out of so many interviewed, more than half spoke more confidently n i tink even if she doesnt speak good english, she shld at least show confidence like claire lee. i dun tink claire spoke perfect english but at least she is coherent n confident

  • @gsextreme27 Why can't they comment on Ris Low? Do you have to be the best looking person on earth to judge on a beauty pageant? Do you have to be the best singer to be a judge on American/Singapore/Whatever country idol?

    What are you trying to point out?

  • @PlueDot man u failed...To be honest,no one have the right to judge or comment on other ppl,beside,those ppl in the vids doesnt have perfect english or have a perfect image that reflect well on the public...Best singer or country idol,are they some kind of species that aint human or some kind of superior human who can judge others?i honestly dont think so..

  • @gsextreme27 I failed? Do you even get my point? I guess not. I guess you can't differentiate the difference between insult and judge? And yes, the point I'm trying to point out is : ANYBODY can judge. Hence, your bottom half of your words made no point.

    You either didn't get what I'm saying or your reply is just half-assed.

    Or, you're the one that failed. "Man".

  • @gsextreme27 Sense the sarcasm, "man".

  • @PlueDot ROFL...wow sense the sarcasm?nice try dude.Go read your previous comment..

  • @gsextreme27 sorry i don't quite agree.. of course, it's your opinion. But i think no matter what she SHOULD be "dethroned" she committed a crime. For me, that's the main reason why i think she really deserves the criticism. I also think as a representative of singapore, she ought to speak proper english.. i mean i suppose you're right that some locals don't speak the best english but she should KNOW that being a representative she has to have a good reputation.

  • @Hanazuka I agree with u,but come on..define good reputation?i mean this is singapore man..what do u expect?no offense btw.

  • @gsextreme27 haha.. yeah i suppose, i still don't agree but you have your own opinion.

  • @gsextreme27 darn true

  • @gsextreme27

    They were asked to, They wanted to said what they wanted. They didnt say they were better did they? Why so sensetive. I mean cmon, Would you like a fag that speaks ENGRISH to represent singapore? I dont think so ... Imagine what other countries would say about her if she speaks to the world .. Uh -_- ! Whai so phail.

  • Like ..

    " Watashino Namae Claire Des. " . You know , sernieboy , by that means , you're saying she 's a hypocrite. even though our english is better then her , at least she didn't lah , orh , what the heck . If that was it , I think Claire is the hypocrite. Whats with all the languages ? Showing off ? pfft. Claire does have proper english , but arrogant . She doesn't deserve any advertisement , + if you think that Ris isn't good enough , I recommend Oxy Ong , She 's got the best EQ.

  • you know , even though her english is really bad , at least we know what she meant by. As so , Claire is actually really .. By the way ..

    @logossano , you should respect people. Singaporeans are all used to Singlish , if that is so , i think those gangsters all those would be like the king of singlish . >3> you can't really expect Singaporeans to talk good English . After all , we are all used to it ( Singaporeans ) . and Claire puts too heavy makeup , at least she would add another jap.

  • I think Ris should definitely represent Singapore... Her english is exactly sounded perfectly identical to what we call "singlish", and that should be the real image to be projected to the whole world. After all, She's the truth.

  • look at 2:02 the boy at the background. pointing the finger.BTW thats junction 8

  • 2:03 he is a nice guy

  • After hearing them talking, I now think Ris really represents Singaporeans!!! They all talk like Ris! lol

  • not exactly ris talks in a tone that is different. at least we can say and speak with a certain tone but ris is just to ...her pronouciation is just to much thats...it

  • l0l. the guy that appeared in the vid sounds gay. haha.

  • It is very clear that Claire looks and sounds much more dignified and intelligent than Ris.

    I know that Singaporean english doesn't sound as good as British or American english. But trust me, Ris' english is really disappointing. It is totally understandable for those Singaporeans to say what they said about Ris' english.

    I like Claire's english much better.

  • Hmmmmm....seems from this clip that most Singaporeans are hypocrites! I never knew, she's the perfect representative of Singapore, all their values are mirrored in her :D...nearly all

  • for god's sake , a beauty queen is about beauty , its not about his personality . if i was beautiful , i would be the winner too even with news wavering behind me . seriously , i agree with the girl that said everyone deserves a second chance . even Vanessa Anne Hudgen got to be sexy queen even though her nude photo got out . plus , Ris deserved the credits . She got the award ! 0:57 guy in there , apparently he was quite funny instead of annoying . Gambate , JYJY Ris Low Yi Min !

  • @Dottiiies excuse me, but if we only judge beauty queens merely by physical beauty, then there shouldn't be any contest at all. =\

    it's beauty INSIDE AND OUT.

    beauty pageant judges don't merely scout for dumb pretty faces, but those with brains and talent too.

    The criteria for these pageants usually include a percentage for talent, personality, and how well they carried the different segments. There's also a percentage for grace under pressure, intelligence, and a higher one for beauty.

  • I agree with you. I don't like those people who critizise others and make fun of others. Ris can't speak well. It has something to do with her voice. It is a voice defect. It is the mouth, if you look at her carefully. She was borned like that. If a person has a high IQ, and can talk well, credit to his parents. Its all in the genes. Singapore can't have everybody with the brains of SM Lee. Or else who want to be the toilet cleaners, the policemen, the construction labourers, etc....

  • I think Claire Lee spoke better English than Ris Low. But I think Ris Low should be given a chance.

  • The way Ris Low speaks is just like how any other typical singaporean speak.. people are just criticising her cos she's representing the nation...

  • wtf are u doing on all of singapore videos published? are u insane first it was about jack neo and the crew now this, wtf do u wan kaydenkolldy, are u man enough to step up to me instead of going around commenting stupid post like this?

  • OOOhh!! I know the guy in 0:57 . ahahs.

  • I have no problem at all with her accent.... she is not representing a (totally) english speaking nation and having an accent (or even some grammatical errors) is fine by me. But... I feel as though she can't even articulate her thoughts well at all!

  • @mitzi4rhys

    I second ur opinion. Perhaps, it's too early for her to contest for Miss Universe at the moment. Her thoughts are rather "immature" in my opinion. However, I couldn't blame her when more than half of the remarks in the comment sections of vids, that were dedicated to mock & ridicule her, were as sophomoric, if not more senseless than her articulation. Most of the time, it would be a case of the pot calling the kettle black.

  • the man in 3:01 derserves a slap!!! He spoke worser than rislow

  • @kenchanjianda

    At least he does not like khaki green and zebra prints :):):)

  • Kay my spoken English is no better, but I need to say something.

    No instructions in school are given whatsoever to correct that ungodly Singaporean accent. Teachers only care that we speak the words. Outside of English class, we mix like four different languages up when we converse, and whoever exercises perfect spoken English will usually be classified under "high and mighty holier than thou douche", so not many do it. Is it then surprising that everyone speaks like that?

  • Comment removed

  • well, at least she should have proper grammar and better pronunciation...accents don't matter, it's pretty much where u come from ofcourse.

  • Well I'm not saying that Ris Low's spoken English is anywhere near good. But I've noticed that in other videos interviewing Singaporeans is that even people who have good pronunciation and grammar are criticized for their accent. So perhaps that is something we should work on.

  • Comment removed

  • Bloody Racist

  • Honestly most of them don't speak very good english at all.

  • @ 2.55 another ris low wannabe.

  • 1:16 Ahbengs supporting Ahlians

  • why is that the chinese are always the ones winning in spore's beauty peagant? isn't spore multi-racial?? i believe there are more better looking women in spore....

  • Well, I'm not a fan of events such as beauty contest or Miss Universe. However, I presume that I can partially answer ur 1st qns. Yes, S'pore is multi-racial, but according to the census data, 74% of the population are Chinese. Thus, statistically speaking, a Chinese is more likely to be selected for Miss Universe than another non-Chinese. Nonetheless, I do agree that there r some non-Chinese candidates worthy of the crown. I'm also impressed with Sonia's (a non-Chinese) performance in the Q&A.

  • @insaintman lol my name...

    -.-"

  • 1.32 "as a Miss Singapore representing our Singapore" no shit? I dont think theyd call her Miss Singapore if she was representing fucking Mexico, right? Most of the people in the vid have no clue wtf theyre talking about.

  • Comment removed

  • Many Singaporean might speak like her, but most of us can speak better english than her. The people in the video aren't criticising her but speaking their own opinion.

  • Yeah I am getting bored. :/ I thought you would be much more fun and interesting but... rather dumb and stupid people usually never fall into the category of fun anyway.

    Perhaps you could roll on the floor barking, that would help. ;D

  • Is that all you can come up with? :/ Jeez, your insults really bites. Stop tickling my feet already. ^__^

    Yeah sure, we know for a fact that you hide your stupidity behind your rather pathetic comebacks. :/ you can't even solidify your point about asians and all you do is just add another random irrelevant insult.

    A+ for the effort. Try harder. ;) I'll appreciate it if you give better comebacks, not old kiddy ones. :/ They bore me, just like you.

  • Yeah, I can't just can't help it if an asian like myself is capable of sensible and rational thinking unlike you. :/

    I mean, I rather be smart then be dumb like you .. right? I think we all can see that you can't even explain how we are "inferior".

    +1 to you for your effort though. Here's a tip, before coming out with psychological terms to use on us, please do some research and back it up. If not you're just another dumbass keyboard warrior.

    Youtube has enough fags like you already. :)

  • Explain how we feel inferior then? LULZ. I just like how you bring up random insults to pin down on us.

    I mean the fact that you keep on generalizing asians shows that you're already a fag that's incapable of rational thinking and reasoning.

    You call us inferior but you can't even elaborate. Looks like an asian like me is much more smarter then you. Heh.

  • In what way do we feel inferior? Or do you just come out with random insults just for the sake of it?

    Who's the one really having an inferiority complex? You insulting asians with no substantial reason at all shows that you have the need to put down asians. Why? Because you don't like feeling inferior to asians? : )

    Well, you tried to justifying yourself as "honest" but it seems like I already killed that point off because all you can say is "And I care what you internetfagz think about me?"

  • If you're being honest then you're being delusional. So take your pick.

    It's definitely not a coincidence that almost 99% of the people who replies to you thinks you're a racist fag.

    If you want to be labeled as "honest", then sure, that'll just make you a delusional stereotypical racist fag. : )

  • Haha.. Seems like he's fighting a lonely battle against Asians/Singaporeans. He ain't got any friends to support his claims. There's a fine line between perseverance & stubbornness. Though, he shld really channel his energy to other more meaningful & productive areas.

  • I like how you generalize all of us asians. Shows the depth of your maturity and thinking. Well done at making yourself look like a stereotypical racist jackass. :)

  • @KaydenKolldy So anyway, I won't be replying your criticisms anymore. Get the fact, take it to reduce ignorance or leave it & continue living in your small little pathetic world huh? (:

  • thnk momo meant tat most gals love clubbing, nt all. i visit malaysia often nd thr's like a place where all those gals wld hang ard. nd of cos nt the muslim gals =/

  • @KaydenKolldy Is my English too hard for you to understand or what? I said, DON'T STEREOTYPE SINGAPORE just because a few of them can't speak English well enough. Obviously I'm talking about Singaporeans speaking either Queen's English/American English (excluding their slangs). You know, the Miss Singapore World's English doesn't represent the way WE ALL speak. I'm from an average neighbouring school & I can say I'm not the brightest, but do you see me actually using English that's so bad?

  • @KaydenKolldy Oh yes, please do not judge like, some small number of Singaporeans who are ill-mannered, ugly, blahblahs & take them as Singapore's representative. LOL, anyway, if you're unhappy about Singapore, why bother to look at the videos, why bother to comment, why bother to make a fuss out of NOTHING concerning you? You may say that it's hurting to eyes & blahs, but it's not an excuse, mister.

  • @KaydenKolldy Like hello? When did I define Singaporean English as good? Do you need to re-read everything I wrote again? Are you sure MOST WOMEN ARE ALREADY DECENT? Do you live under a coconut shell or something? I meant no offence but seriously. Most Singaporeans HAVE outer beauty as well, like whoever mentioned (Sorry to that person, I forgot his/her username), you missed out a lot. (: & please, even though you are a guy, it doesn't mean all you think of should be SEX.

  • @KaydenKolldy When you say that Singaporeans are ugly, I'd seriously like to ask you this. WHAT IS YOUR DEFINITION OF BEAUTY? Are you superficial and only look at the surface (Singapore have tons of pretty women)? Or do you see the inner beauty of women (we have loads of them here as well)? Singaporeans are beautiful in their own way, it's just that you don't know how to appreciate. Even though SOME Singaporeans have unacceptable behaviour, you can't deny the fact that EVERYONE's beautiful.

  • @Momofiedd

    I appreciate what u've said. However, from his 1st post, its obvious that he's purely looking for trouble, don't waste ur time explaining to him. By doing so, u're indirectly reinforcing his irrational responses. Just let him rant whatever he wants, sooner or later he'll be bored talking to bricks of wall. U can nv succeed in changing his attitude towards others, as he has essentially enclosed himself in a stereotypical self-fulfilling prophecy. Only he holds the key out of it. :)

  • @insaintman HAHAHA, I actually have something (probably offensive to Aussies) to say, but it feels so discriminating as well. I don't want to be like this guy who would probably have the whole of Singapore turned against him. LOL. Yeah, but as long as we know Singapore doesn't really suck that much & he should stop living under his coconut shell, & someday visit Singapore to see how great Singapore is actually "lorh". He might be amazed but unwilling to accept in his brain, HAHAHA!

  • SHEESH. 2 thumbs down? The thing on my mind was already said by someone on KaydenKolldy's profile, which really made me laugh. The sentence I had wanted to say is the truth and everyone had probably knew, so by rating my comment thumbs down really makes me laugh hard. xD

  • @KaydenKolldy What's more, I think I should say this. How'd you know IF ANY of your ANCESTORS are asians or not? You'd never know, yep? Your surname may be those of Caucasian, but know this, you'd never know. (:

  • @KaydenKolldy Lol, there's no need for you to care whether people are Asian or not. Haven't you seen some Yahoo! report on skin colour? Everyone has all four skin colours in them, it's just that people in different continents have different amount of those melanin as those places that gets more of the UV rays from the sun would be at a higher risk of getting skin cancer, so that's what the body does to prevent it. Who cares about Caucasian, Asian or what. We're all human.

  • Are you really sure about vietnamese are also chinese?

  • Comment removed

  • Knowing how to speak Chinese doesn't make them Chinese, sorry.

    What if an interpreter knows how to speak many languages, does that make him/her other nationalities?

    And no, they didn't have a Chinese culture. They have similar cultures to their neighbouring countries, including China, Laos, Cambodia and Thailand.

    infoplease[dot]com/ipa/A010814­4[dot]html

    "The Vietnamese are descendants of nomadic Mongols from China and migrants from Indonesia."

  • You can stereotype Singapore into a country with bad English/don't know how to speak English just because a few of them can't do it well enough. You know, Asians have their mother tongues too. And we respect our culture so we comprehend them into our daily lives. You just haven't heard those Singaporeans who are really THAT good in their English. So don't just label us. Would gladly appreciate that. Thanks.

  • @KaydenKolldy Just in case you don't know, Singapore population comprises mostly of Chinese people, and in Chinese language, there's the word 'la' which people would put it behind their sentence in order to complete it. Some people who speak Chinese at home might be used to it, thus they would add 'la' to all of their sentences. Singaporeans CAN actually speak English, some young children can speak proper English as well as a foreign adult (not adults in other asian countries).

  • @geoff1121

    1) Do u actually mean "embarrass"? Judging by the insults going ard, I doubt S'porean feel ashamed. Most enjoy bashing their own ppl for others like "KaydenKolldy" to laugh at them.

    2) Pls give an example of a "good/pleasant" accent.

    3) It's a beauty contest, not a linguist test. I agree, that's y I don't know what's the big fuss abt. She couldn't rep. SG because of her theft offence, but S'porean seems "addicted" mocking at her pronunciation. Btw, u shld improve on ur spelling.

  • @cripperzx

    I'm not sure which post r u referring to. Let me clarify

    1) She deserved what? Probation for her theft? Of course. But not insults from ppl whom she didn't offend. There's a fundamental diff. between insults & criticism. The problem is ppl were insulting her w/o any justified reasons.

    2) I've nv mentioned that she shld rep. SG, it's not up to me to decide.

    3) I'm a REAL S'porean

    4) "Low crime doesn't mean no crime", I agree, what's ur pt here? Did i said low crime = no crime?

  • i find it funny how singaporeans feel embassed and shit. i mean seriously look whos talking, u guys have the worst accents ever. its a fkin beauty contest, not a linguist test.
