I've never seen a dirty MTR station in Hong Kong.

Likewise in Singapore.

People who do grafitti and vandalism shouldn't be sent to jail, I agree that makes them worse, but they SHOULD be beaten with a cane.

Those places have strict immigration and settlement law though

>>25890180
It's because there are cameras fucking everywhere. Taipei especially. Crime there tends to be white collar fraud, or bribery.

As for "shit skins" as you call them. They're the least of your worries. Singapore is wonderful like that. Taipei has yankee wannabes that hang out and act like assholes and that's as close to "gangs" as you get because they're 90% bored kids

>>25890498
>It's because there are cameras fucking everywhere.

No it isn't. London has one of the highest rates of per capita CCTV cameras and our crime rate is much higher than those of East Asian cities.

>As for "shit skins" as you call them. They're the least of your worries.

On the contrary.

>Taipei has yankee wannabes that hang out and act like assholes and that's as close to "gangs" as you get because they're 90% bored kids

BULLSHIT.

Taipei is one of the safest cities on earth, you can live anywhere you want pretty much be assured of your own personal safety and the safety of your property at all times.

Go be a leftist somewhere else.

>>25890540
...im taiwanese.

go be /pol/ somewhere else
(like /pol/ for example)

Also i thought i clarified that yankee types are just bored kids and not actually in anyway threatening.

:3 also i had no idea i was leftie since i voted kmt

>>25890590
>go be /pol/ somewhere else

Easy for you to say when your country strict immigration/naturalization laws already.

>>25890614
what you mean to say is everyone wants to gtfo of taiwan. no one would intentionally migrate here. people even go to PRC for work because the hours are less.

Worked in singapore and malaysia. both have brown people. Singapore they're just like everywhere else. malaysia has done a good job of putting ethnic malays on par with financially backed chinese. indians are still treated like shit though. no stand out race there as far as crime goes desu. but im sure you'll find something to disagree with because that's what being a contentious little beta is all about.

>>25890180
>you forgot: no shitty white people

>>25890663
Dude, I know your naturalization laws, they're much stricter than we have here in the west. Generally the west is simply a lot more permissive.

Singapore has brown Malays, but they are kept in check by very strict laws. Plus they do not offer settlement for all immigrants, just highly skilled ones. Laborers are brought in, kept in temporary work camps and then sent back home. Instant deportation for even minor offenses too.

PRC is basically impossible to get citizenship for, even marrying into a Chinese family only grants you a 1 year extension to your L visa, and obviously none of your countries have retarded stuff like family reunification laws.

>>25890705
The predominantly white cities and towns of Europe are generally very nice, crime-free places: Swiss cities, Vienna, Northern Italian cities, Munich (though not for much longer unfortunately). Black and brown people are just shit-tier.

Not OP.

>>25890707
>trust be brah i know your laws better than you.

K'den... even if that was the case that's not what i am on about. no one wants to move to Taiwan. Our economy is not doing so well. no one WANTS to come to Taiwan.

Singapore has brown Malays that are just like everyone else in Singapore. Overworked and pretentious. Malays in Malaysia are given certain advantages (like 60% placements at universities for 60% of the populations), to keep them on the same level as Chinese who have offshore financial backing for generations... thats a long story. But they have no reason to commit crime any more than anyone else. Also Malaysia does not offer settlement to anyone who isn't Malay. Full stop.

PRC and ROC issue is complex. On one hand they won't recognize our passports etc. on the otherhand they overlook that shit and let us in anyway.

>>25890794
I do know your own laws, I know you have no equivalent to our permissive family reunification l laws that allow for endless chain migration, I know your naturalization period is longer and up to the discretion of the bureaucracy, I know your asylum acceptance rate is much, much lower than ours, I know you have nothing as ridiculous as ius soli.

>>25890822
that's not the fucking point you mong. holy shit, can you even read?

honestly i give up. You know Taiwanese law? yes or no. it doesn't change what I'm saying.

shit no wonder this board is said to be full of friendless losers. im going back to /tg/ where the people are somehow more socially adjusted.

its fine buddy. you won. you won an argument that existed totally in your own head but its fine because you're still the winner right. ;^) enjoy the spoils of victory

>>25890719
What about east europe

>>25890896
What are you even trying to prove here? That Taiwan has just as liberal asylum, immigration and settlement laws as most western countries do?

That simply isn't true.

>>25890914
I'm guessing the point is that nobody is willing to move to Taiwan. So immigration issues don't come up. Try reading the whole thread again.

>>25890903
Poland has a slightly higher murder rate than the UK, but murder rates can be deflated by better health systems, given an improper impression of how dangerous a place is. See:

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1124155/

In other words, assault is less lethal in countries that are more developed.

I've felt safer in Warsaw than in bad areas of London and certainly much, much safer than in Paris (where the police genuinely have no go areas in the suburbs), for what its worth.

>>25890896
Hey I wanna visit taiwan some day but im a dirty mainlander

It's because of their immigration laws and their prison system. They want their prison system to basically be hell. Solitary confinement and you die by the noose. They don/t tell you when you are going to die so you're alone in your cell and every morning you think you are going to die. For any violent crime you basically get a life sentence.

In the US at least there is a lot of gang culture which a lot of blacks from the UK want to emulate.

>>25890949
Wtf is wrong with poland. And holy shit when did france get so bad. Haha europe is cuck Central.

>>25890949
>bad areas of London
What areas were those?

>>25890991
Poland is fine, did you read my explanation?

Paris is awful because France liberalized their immigration laws in the 1970s to allow for chain migration and more refugees, before that point immigrants actually had the same rates of employment and welfare dependency that native French did.

>>25890944
Plenty of refugees want to move to places like Taiwan, but their acceptance rates are demonstrably much, much lower. Likewise with Japan, who had 4000 applications last year but only approved something like 7 of them.

Other countries put their own people first.

>>25891029
Tottenham, Edmonton and Hackney come to mind.

Edmonton is particularly bad, full of Africans.

>>25891080

How does it feel knowing that you're completely powerless?

Im not white but i feel so bad for europeans. I visited berlin in december and it was just so grimy and full of retarded immigrants. Just hanging around and being obnoxious. I saw some beautiful old buildings and imagined what the city must have been like during the 4th reich. Was probably really nice. Why mess up nice places with retarded savages who dont want to become civilized?

>>25891218
Both of us are completely powerless. History doesn't respond to the desires of people who post on /r9k/.

Not sure that has to do with liberal immigration policy fucking shit up though.

>>25891220
What race are you?

Berlin is horrible. But Munich is still quite nice.

>Why mess up nice places with retarded savages who dont want to become civilized?

Because center-rightists want to inflate our populations in the vain hope that will help us compete with India and China, while providing corporations with limitless cheap labor and because center-leftists don't see race as a real thing, and think culture is just something analogous to a jacket that tribal savages from North Africa, Pakistan or Afghanistan take off when they reach the UKBA.

>>25890247
In Singapore right now, funny you should mention it.

Yeah, sure. Cane the petty criminals. I'm fine with that. And Singapore is somewhat lacking the criminal element, sure.

However, it's a fucking shithole- just not in the literal sense. Singapore is about as wagecuck (and I'm one- I don't normally consider wagecuckery a thing but in Singapore it really is a thing), general cuck society as it gets. Filled with normalfags, and anyone who isn't wants to get out.

National Service, censorship, dictatorship, the Singaporeans are somehow racist to their own race (Chinese mainlanders) as well as in their own special way to "ang moh" (whites) etc, and ofc Indians and Filipinos etc.

Singapore is genuinely shit. And the weather is absolute hell too. The culture is about as regressive as it gets without being third world.

Hell for NEETs, also hell for anyone who isn't willing to be a wagecuck and bend over to fellate the local govt.

Coming here I realize that the west really had a lot of things right, compared to here at least.

>>25891338
I think that's more a culture clash thing. People who work on secondments in the far east often end up getting sick of the place, just because you're surrounded by alien people and an alien culture.

I think that's detached from the genuinely positive things Singapore offers though and that we could definitely learn from:

- Protective of national industry.
- Sovereign wealth fund that is well managed and operates for the benefit of the people.
- 80% home ownership rates.
- Low criminality.
- Good infrastructure.

Etc.

As for me, I get sick of the food when I'm in East Asia these days. There's only so much fried shit my body can take.

>>25890896
I'm Murkan, but I can assure you that Taiwan's citizenship laws are more strict than ours. For one thing you don't have birthright citizenship, for another you have to display a working proficiency in Chinese, as another you have to demonstrate you have requisite assets, professional skills and income to be self-sufficient, and that's just from a very cursory glance at your government website.

>>25891409
I guess, I can definitely agree with the points you made.

Agreeing on the fried food, though I've found eating the local food is quite decent, offers variety and absolutely dirt cheap, if a bit of a pain in the ass to order when I only speak English. Probably wouldn't feel safe ordering from vendors of this sort anywhere in Asia other than Singapore, I suppose.

Still planning to leave and never come back though. Singapore's just not for me.

>>25891497
Did you ever pop along the bridge to JB?

>>25891260
> What race are you
Hispanic. I even felt bad being there because I didn't want anyone to think I was another faggot muslim ruining their country. Idk if they could tell between different shades of not white. I didnt even bother talking to people very much for that reason, I mostly just saw sights and went to museum and drank Berlin almost had a tiny bit of rough charm to it, but it was minimal when you think off how nice it could be. Seeing such a once proud people become total cucks, a once fine city with trash strewn about was very sad.
> center-leftists don't see race as a real thing, and think culture is just something analogous to a jacket that tribal savages from North Africa, Pakistan or Afghanistan take off when they reach the UKBA.
The funny thing about that is these don't even seem to like it when you expect those immigrants to assimilate. They're literally cucks who want to be taken over. They're literally ashamed of all the neat scientific, cultural, and technological advancements performed by native europeans. They literally want their interesting traditions and history to be replaced with goatfucking and beheading

>>25891553
Have yet to though I've been here almost half a year by now- not particularly interested in Malaysia though considering what I've heard of it.

I suppose Singapore's done well for itself considering its surroundings, but the west in general still is much better culturally/socially I'd think, than anything the east can offer. I don't see that changing anytime soon.

>>25891578
>The funny thing about that is these don't even seem to like it when you expect those immigrants to assimilate.

I don't expect them to. Different races are different and tend in different directions. The whole argument about "assimilation" is insulting to both sides because you end up with non-Europeans who cling on to their racial identity (their real identity) in a tribal way while insisting to everyone else that they're "just as German/French/English as anyone else". Identity theft of a sorts, reducing the native population's identity to a passport.

I think part of the problem is a general lethargy among Europeans. We've been taught to think of immigration as natural and unavoidable, so even those opposed to it don't raise their voices too loudly.

Of course it is entirely avoidable. Turning the boats around at the various crossing points and denying any sort of legal status to those who arrive would quickly dry up the net inflows, but our own politicians in this case are motivated by a sort of secularized Christianity ("muh turn the other cheek", "muh universal equality").

Ah, that explains a bit. You're a European.

Yeah, the EU messed up spectacularly. Major immigrant destination centers will probably get worse than the best parts of East Asia eventually, if nothing's done.

That being said any halfway decent city in the west still beats all of East Asia out of the water right now, mainly by differences in culture and governance.

Right. Over 500 women just happened to make up stories of sexual assault just to defame them.

One wonders if you'd be engaging in these sorts of semantics if a thousand or so white college students happened to congregate on NYE and cohesively start sexually assaulting women.

>using the term "hatespeech" unironically

Don't bother engaging with them, they only do this as a way of feeling morally superior to others. Fighting caricature "gnatzis" is a great method of moral grandstanding as these are people who orientate their entire ethical philosophy around World War 2.

Germany's had an Islamic problem long before Cologne or the refugee crisis.

Note I'm saying "Islamic" not "Middle-Eastern." Islam is the real problem, and bringing over many immigrants from a region currently suffering from the effects of extreme, fundamentalist Islam with little done to ensure the safety of locals or assimilation or at least to prevent radicals from entering- is what led to Cologne. And Cologne's just the tip of the iceberg of what is happening and what will happen.

Eh, I'll reply to this.

Nothing's gonna happen. I'm not a stormfag, I actually am pretty damn liberal and I like immigration and multiculturalism and the whole works.

I'm not exactly optimistic for Europe though. They can't do anything without going against their morals, and I think it's a good thing there's not going to be a race war or anything close- but it's pretty fucked up what is happening all the same.

The floodgates have been opened, no one seems to be capable of even putting some reasonable restraint on entry- and honestly the refugee crisis is just helping bring focus to the trend of allowing immigration from parts of the world that are anything but friendly to western/european culture in the first place.

What can Europe do? Not much, not anymore- and while there are some things they could try to do to at least assimilate and deradicalize those already within their borders and prevent further damage I think it's common knowledge that nothing is going to be done.

Personally I'm pretty proud of my country (Canada) for taking in refugees. Because we did it the right way, and we're capable of taking them in. I'm not against taking in refugees, but anyone who supports how Europe is doing it has totally unrealistic expectations.

>>25892091

>they could try to do to at least assimilate and deradicalize those already within their borders

This is a physical impossibility. What you call "assimilation" is only possible with demographically insignificant immigration. Once you allow people to form what are essentially hermetically sealed ethnic communities within your own country, you've lost that opportunity.

People "assimilate" in the way early Taiwanese-Americans did. They are FORCED to through the sheer demographic weight/force of numbers of the pre-existing majority.

I'll also add that the concept of "de-radicalization" is a buzzword pushed around, but one that doesn't seem to yield much by way of results. Bernard Haykel, a multi-lingual leading near-east expert has written extensively on the complete failure of the Gulf State's "de-radicalization" programs, and plenty more has been written on the failure of Sweden's programs if you want a comparable western example.

Finally, you're moving the burden of responsibility here. You're saying that Europeans are supposed to altruistically accept people who despise them and their way of life (people who are supposedly fleeing war zones to the safety of European states), and pay for their "de-radicalization", which doesn't even work anyway.

It's fucking insane, just listen to yourself.

Not really. I didn't state that accepting refugees had to be done. I'm glad Canada did it because Canada can do it properly- but as I think I stated Europe should have closed its gates long ago.

Never said this. What I did was point out that the government banned an entire consumer product ('except for medicinal use', kek) because of a design flaw in their mass-transit system.

There's no reasonable justification for the chewing-gum ban. It's simple authoritarian policymaking, but then you can afford to do that when you run a one-party state with only notional opposition, redraw boundaries to your advantage, and retain the right to sue opposition candidates for libel when they make political claims about government policy.

Gum isn't a big deal, and is legal now. Agreed the MRT is excellent.

That being said the government is most definitely authoritarian and quite undemocratic in how it suppresses other political parties- and disregarding all that, NS alone should be something both the left and the right can agree is very authoritarian. Singapore's culture also is very stifling IMO.

>Immediate resorting to ad-hom. Classic.

They did? I'm pretty sure it was banned because it's a big part of why pavements in any major city are dirty and full of litter, and that it allows germs/pathogens to travel extremely easily when people are spitting it out onto streets people walk onto - extremely important for a part of the world with the sort of population density Singapore has.

>It's simple authoritarian policymaking, but then you can afford to do that when you run a one-party state with only notional opposition, redraw boundaries to your advantage,

Yes, Singapore is a de facto one party state. So? That's not a criticism in of itself because not everyone on earth shares your axiom of democracy being inherently good.

Try to criticize it on actual, material grounds. Its educational system, its wages, its rate of home ownership, its infrastructure, its level of criminality.

Oh wait, you can't.

>and retain the right to sue opposition candidates for libel when they make political claims about government policy.

The exact same laws LKY used against opposition figures applied to LKY himself. Singapore is a common law country where everyone is equal under the law, and even liberal NGOs like transparency international agree that its level of corruption is minimal.

When Mohandas Gandhi was asked what he thought of Western civilization, he replied that he thought it would be an excellent idea. This whole ugly, oppressive structure needs to be smashed down to the fucking ground, leaving no stone standing on another. The general of the anarchist forces in Spain during the Spanish Civil War, Buenoventura Durruti, was asked by a reporter if he was worried about the damage he was doing. His answer was, "It is we the workers who built these palaces and cities, here in Spain and in America, and everywhere. We, the workers, can build others to take their place, and better ones! We are not in the least afraid of ruins. We are going to inherit the earth, there is not the slightest doubt about that. The bourgeoisie might blast and ruin its own world before it leaves the stage of history. We carry a new world, here, in our hearts."

>>25892649
>because it's a big part of why pavements in any major city are dirty and full of litter
Litter is a different issue entirely, people spitting gum doesn't instantly mean people drop litter.
>it allows germs/pathogens to travel extremely easily when people are spitting it out onto streets people walk onto - extremely important for a part of the world with the sort of population density Singapore has.
And yet 'any major city' has dirty, litter filled streets without severe gum related health problems. Granted, Singapore is more densely populated than HK, but the difference isn't significant enough to justify it.
>That's not a criticism in of itself because not everyone on earth shares your axiom of democracy being inherently good.
Let me guess, 'Muh Asian values!' ?
Democracy is not inherently good, but it is generally preferable in developed states as it results in better policymaking in the long term (and at least gives the public input on whether they want authoritarian policies like chewing-gum bans and the various restriction on free speech for causes like racial harmony - which are ironically far more restrictive than anything you'll find in 'leftist' europe.), you can have actual democracy and still usually have one party in power (see:Japan)
>Try to criticize it on actual, material grounds. Its educational system, its wages, its rate of home ownership, its infrastructure, its level of criminality.
I could, but that would only result in further accusations of leftism. I'll just note that in the area of free speech/expression, Singapore leaves a lot to be desired on the civil liberties front (let me guess, free speech isn't important either. Asian values!), let alone getting into the treatment of migrant workers (hey, at least it's not the UAE) or human trafficking issues.

>>25892823
>Litter is a different issue entirely, people spitting gum doesn't instantly mean people drop litter.

No it isn't. The ostensible reason for the ban was littering, people spit gum out everywhere. Take a look at a pavement in a major western metropolis.

>And yet 'any major city' has dirty, litter filled streets without severe gum related health problems.

Are you being sarcastic here? I'm not sure what your point is. Gum doesn't have any effect on actual gum problems, for that you need to see a dental hygienist.

>Democracy is not inherently good, but it is generally preferable in developed states as it results in better policymaking in the long term

Both of these assumptions have absolutely no evidence. Actually, if anything democracy dis-incentivizes long term decision making because 1) Nobody actually owns the capital stock of the country in the long term and 2) Democratic governments become incredibly dependent on client voter bases, for example Labour in the UK with its massive immigrant voting base and its attempt throughout its tenureship to bring in as many as possible, at least in part, to build this base.

>Asian values

Yes. Different groups of people have different values and different philosophical outlooks. Your error is that you view the entire world as simple "white people who look a bit different", and essentially have the exact same values western people have, but are at different stages along the "road to liberal democracy".

>you can have actual democracy and still usually have one party in power (see:Japan)

Japan is also a de facto one party state. It is also not really a democracy, given that most policy-making initiatives don't really arise from the diet, they originate from an entrenched bureaucracy that go on to assume corporate positions later in life.

>civil liberties
>Asian values!

Yes. Again. Why do you assume the entire world is just white people of differing hues and morphologies?

True enough, but in the first place the PAP had little restraint (at least compared to the west) in building up Singapore to the way it is now. I can see why anyone would want it changed- even most western right-wingers would not agree with what's in place here, it just has no parallel (and I consider that a good thing).

Maybe without the PAP Singapore will become another third world failed state, though I suppose that might be pushing it. I do think that even the PAP can't hold power in Singapore indefinitely while trying to have some sort of pretense of a legitimate "democracy" in the works- Singapore is a wealthy enough country that the people are starting to realize that even the worst of the western world provides more freedom and breathing space and variety.

Agreeing also that HK is much better for things to do. Singapore perhaps might be the kind of place people who want to raise families would want to live in- but it's not a good place to grow up in nor live in otherwise, IMO.

May as well note I'm actually Singaporean who was raised abroad and is here for NS, so NS particularly is a bitter spot for me, particularly in how Singapore really seems to try to bleed out as much as possible from me, or how the culture here expects to impose itself on me due to my citizenship.

That being said however, while the people raised here of my generation are rather "westernized" it just isn't the same- Singapore at its current core (the PAP) is not a free country nor one that treats its citizens with much respect. (not phrasing this in a liberal sense- though in the liberal sense it's probably several times worse of a country)

The experience of Singapore should be pretty standard; basically just coming to the island, wasting some money, then afterwards realizing there's nothing else to do. But living in Singapore especially as a citizen is something else.

Actually, that's not true. Most of Singapore's wealth comes from capital intensive manufacturing and services, things that aren't location dependant.

They actually became the de facto shipping hub in SEA, taking that crown away from HK precisely because they built, using domestic industry for the most part, world class facilities for VLCCs and dry/wet bulk vessels, as well as logistics that HK didn't have.

Actually, Malaysia is much better situated to become a shipping hub if you want to bring location up.

>>25892867
>If they tried that they would lose the next election, silly.

Depends on the shifting demographics. Malay voters are obviously amenable to Malay tribalism, another thing that makes democracies in multi-racial states disastrous.

>The ostensible reason for the ban was littering, people spit gum out everywhere

>Are you being sarcastic here? I'm not sure what your point is
My point is that people spit gum and drop cans in 'any major city', yet Singapore is almost unique in needing to resort to banning a product as a result.
>Gum doesn't have any effect on actual gum problems
Please tell me you're Asian and a non-native English speaker. 'Gum-related' was 'Health problems as a result of people spitting gum', i.e. increased diseases as a result, not related to the part of the body called the gum.
>Both of these assumptions have absolutely no evidence
You cite the Labour party in the UK - do you know what happened to that party? After 13 years of doing shit like that which people didn't like, they were thrown out of power and are now in long-term decline. Do you know what would happen if the PAP decided to implement the same policies? People would have no real recourse.
>Yes.
[15 minute break for laughter here]
Asian values is a ridiculous concept, yes different people have different values - that's one of the appeals of democracy, it allows them to express those differing values.
>Japan is also a de facto one party state. It is also not really a democracy
This doesn't really stand as an endorsement of Singapore when even Japan had the opposition take power once.
>Why do you assume the entire world is just white people of differing hues and morphologies?
There are two quick ways to conclude this:
1. 'The entire world is just white people of differing hues and morphologies' and thus can be trusted to govern itself (Retain Singapore independence, etc.)
2. The entire world has different values and as such are more or less 'civilized' by nature, if this is the case it's the white-man's burden to govern them responsibly because they're too primitive to do it themselves (Recolonize Singapore.)

You can ban gum a lot more easily than soft drinks. They're also just as harsh on general littering of the kind you're talking about.

>My point is that people spit gum and drop cans in 'any major city', yet Singapore is almost unique in needing to resort to banning a product as a result.

Because Chinese people are different and have a different philosophy, generally speaking, to white people.

Your error is this belief that liberalism is some default thing that all people on earth believe in. It's exactly what led to the problems with have with "integration" in Europe now. Our leaders thought that these people were just white people who happened to eat different foods or look a bit different. They're not. The difference is in the axiomatic assumptions about ethics and in many cases, metaphysics too.

>After 13 years of doing shit like that which people didn't like, they were thrown out of power and are now in long-term decline.

> Do you know what would happen if the PAP decided to implement the same policies? People would have no real recourse.

Chinese people would begin race riots if that sort of shit happened in a Chinese society. Remember that the mere rumour of a Uighur raping a Han woman in Shenzhen some years ago was enough to start a murderous race riot.

>Asian values is a ridiculous concept, yes different people have different values

But you seem to be unprepared to accept the logical consequences of this belief, that the world's peoples aren't on some sort of universal road to liberal democracy.

Funny thing you should say that. I remember seeing a talk by Federico Arcos at the Anarchist Book Fair in Montreal. Federico was, at the time, one of the last living soldiers who had served in the anarchist Durruti Column during the Spanish Civil War. After Durruti was assassinated by the Bolsheviks and the Durruti Column collapsed, Arcos joined the US forces. A young anarchist woman in the audience asked Federico how he justified serving with an imperialist army. Federico just shrugged and said, "I wanted to kill Nazis. They were the only ones doing it."

Am I proud that I've punched boneheads in the mouth? Am I proud that I've helped kick Nazis off our streets? Damned straight. If that makes me a violent person, then so be it. To quote NoFX, "It's okay, allow yourself a little hate; hatred is not so bad when directed at injustice."

It's not a belief, it's a kindly assumption - if you don't share the white man's belief then you're inherently inferior and should be recolonized. Our assumptions lead to the best overall treatment for individuals. I would even put forward your viewpoint as a possible way to explain the current state of Europe (white man's burden minus the feeling colonization is moral = importing lesser races in a futile attempt to help them.)

Singapore is stricter than Hong Kong. It's also cleaner. I don't remember saying that it was a necessary part of a Chinese society to ban gum, only that Chinese generally tend towards more hierarchical, less democratic systems. lrn2Confucius.

I can say that I've seen this much from my own relatives who speak English, sure- but Europe is a vastly different story from the US/Canada.

Most people seem to have a very negative opinion of Australia here because of racism, but past that a large enough number of Singaporeans (granted- I can only talk to those who speak English, though that's already a lot) are not exactly happy with their current system either to say the least. Many Singaporeans want to, and actually leave Singapore and their citizenship for good to head to greener pastures, though I won't deny that regardless of what party is in power or what policies are in place it's Singapore's fate to be an expensive, cramped and overcompetitive place to live, which isn't for most people. Europe shouldn't and isn't taken as representative of the whole of the west here.

The older Singaporeans can recall a Singapore that was a complete shithole, and as such are grateful for what they have. Talking to anyone outside of the "pioneer" age group, you'll hear enough stories about relatives who have moved to Australia/NZ/Canada/US typically, and are enjoying life more there.

Not saying the average Singaporean is totally in disapproval of their government- and honestly the PAP is possibly still the best for Singapore at the moment- but there's no denying that there's a large enough gap in lifestyle quality and freedom between the west and Singapore for Singaporeans at least to notice.

Granted, Singaporeans also report the same moving to Taiwan/HK/etc.

On the context of all of East Asia, I'd say I don't expect Asians to want democracy. Not that they'd be against it either. But I can definitely imagine (and can see in Singapore at least) a movement for "western" liberties and breathing space at least, one that I think is natural for anyone to want.

No it ain't.

Playing politics or the law system in Singapore is like playing a game of poker where the official deck is a stacked one.

It's not "corrupt" when government officials earn million-dollar salaries and it's perfectly legal- opposition parties are slammed with defamation and slander charges and it's similarly legal- the PAP sets the rules after all.

I would say the entire system is corrupt. But in the context of partisan corruption Singapore comes off as clean as a whistle.

/pol/ /r9k/ and /fit/ are pretty much the same crowd friendo. It is you who is alien here.

Again. Transparency index is not a right wing NGO by any standards. I guess you know better though.

>>25893445
Yes. It is.

Anything is a naked assertion. But I'll leave you to your John Woo understanding of HK. It's obvious you have never been.

why are you so obsessed with people posting their pictures on and ANONYMOUS image board?

>in place it's Singapore's fate to be an expensive, cramped and overcompetitive place to live, which isn't for most people

i am born here
with a vagoo
the men here act like women
even the most beta of r9k is an alpha in comparison
if a girl puts on make up and tries to wear nice clothes, she is too superficial
you will have ugly fedora-tier males telling you that you look like shit when you look gorgeous
if a girl does absolutely nothing and only wear t-shirts and jeans she isnt pretty enough
if you have a boyfriend, he wont kiss you. you have to take the initiative to kiss him.
you can never be not fat
at work people surf facebook and edmw and take 5 coffee breaks a day, then clock overtime until 10pm because they are SO HARDWORKING
so if you leave work at 6pm, you are one LAZY FUCKER even though you spent all your work hours productively
if you check a cute guy out, and you dare tell anyone, everyone will call you desperate
if you dare say a guy or a girl is attractive, you are purely judgemental and thus a terrible person
to be a gamer just play a lot of MOBA
everyone thinks money is king
money is everything
i disagree with that and i just want to be happy, and everyone thinks i am a dumbfuck
if a person is not filthy rich they have no self esteem
i am extremely friendly and outgoing
i don't have friends
nobody wants to hang out with anyone new, everyone only wants to be in their cliques
you MUST do any activity with ANOTHER PERSON or you are an absolute loner
nobody understands the concept of 'alone time'

weekends everywhere is crowded as fuck
queue 30 minutes to buy groceries at supermarket
single-basket lane is full of trolleys filled to the brim
queue 15minutes to buy a fucking apple on saturday

i hate this place so much i cant wait to fucking finish university and leave this wretched hell

I like the criminal element honestly. It makes life all the more interesting

I once knew a girl from Singapore and didn't get that vibe from her at all, maybe she was part of the problem you're referring to.

also, basic level 1 slime type of kink like bdsm is equated to sexual perversion here
if you're not vanilla, you are mentally ill, which means you are crazy, and therefore carry the innate potential to go on berserker mode rampage. all mentally ill people are possible murderers. they need to be locked up away from society
^^^ people genuinely believe this in singapore

young adults usually but not always fall into two major groups:
the Junior College kid (two years of uni prep), hardworking clever nerds who dont know much about the outside world and believe that you must be Nice To Everybody. The kind of people who want singapore to accept refugees fall into this group.

the lazy fuck: they suck at whatever they signed up to do (whether it's work or their choice of study/major in school), whine about how they dont get good at it, do nothing except Think and Brood and still suck at it. Seriously that's all fine and i dont care if they do that, but the combination of them sucking + their guilt causes them to commit sabotage. i've had my parts of my group projects deleted because my partner was afraid i'd score better than him since i actually worked hard and had better skills than him.

if you ever work in any service line here, god forbid the customer actually warrant any service, because that only pisses the wagecuck off

i've worked at restaurants where colleagues come up to me to sarcastically tell me to stop smiling to customers and stop providing service, because they're too lazy to do it and i was "spoiling the market" for them.

a supervisor gives a group of us a list of things to do, and i tell these newbies that how we can split the work, and the girl actually told me "no i dont want to do anything. i want to go toilet. whether i help or i dont help, i end work at 11pm anyway."
*going to the restroom is a way to skive off
