I dont know why, but these few weeks or months, it's been filled with bickerings. First the bickering between Indonesia and Malaysia over their cultural heritage. Second Malaysia and Singapore over the originality of the food. Like Malaysia is claiming Hainanese Chicken Rice to be originating from there. It's a silly bicker, imo. Indonesia, Malaysia and Singapore, are all in the same straits. Naturally migration from one place to another is common. It is only natural that they share some common areas in the culture, language and palates. It's really silly what they are trying to do.
Next is the saga of Ris Low. It's embarassing enough that she was chosen (God knows why she's chosen, maybe it's because of the lee-perd, read, and booms). Although I dont deny that most do not have perfect diction and gramatically perfect English, but I can vouch that most speaks proper and dont try to be eS-per-Gerrrsss. We are choosing someone to represent Singapore in the Ms World contest where most knows that Singapore first language is English. At the very least choose someone who can speak properly and not an attention-seeker. It is a world event, seen by every country in the world, supposedly chosen to be the next role model that our young generation can look up to. If the crime record had been exposed earlier and she showed her repentance or at the least be humble instead of boomz-ing ard, I would think generally the public will accept her. But her defiance and self-righteousness is really intolerable and no wonder she is the number 1 public enemy on the list. As much as people around are thinking that we might be too much but a more humble defence from her would actually be better. Instead she created a further attention-seeking stance by claiming that the first runner-up had backstabbed her. It is totally a bad move and even when she graduate and move on, whereever she goes, she'll just be branded 'total bimbo', if i can add, to the max degree.
