Sinkies are not xenophobic
The accusation and branding of Sinkies as xenophobic is simply bad. It must not be allowed to stick. Sinkies have never been xenophobic. Other than some bad encounters with criminals, most visitors or foreigners working here have pleasant experience and memories to bring home with them. Many also have enjoyed the hospitality and generosity of Sinkies when they were here and some when in deep trouble. Those who have bad experience here are the racists that would not find any place good enough for them, not even their own countries. They will be the first to bad mouth any country that welcomed them to stay.
Sinkies must protest against this unjust labeling as anti foreigners. No one from any country would want their home to be flooded by so many foreigners in so short a span of time and with the infrastructure stretching and barely able to cope. The anger of Sinkies is not against the foreigners but against the policy of having too many foreigners leading to over crowding, unwanted competition, high cost of living, and a better future for our children.
No, Sinkies are definitely not xenophobic. Sinkies must denounce this xenophobic branding. It is having too many foreigners that is hurting the average Sinkies. The only good that can come from this branding is to frighten foreigners from thinking that Sinkieland is a good option to migrate.

I would say that Sgeans are the most accomodating people in the world! In fact I am surprised that when already so much of their own living and breathing space are taken up by foreigners, they are still so gracious face-to-face, where anywhere else this happened, there would have been a real backlash, rite now its just speaking words that echo their discomfort and ritely so, violence was and is never their way, being a peaceful people.
The only people beating the xenophobic drum are those who don't want to face the real national issues and deal with them head-on but throw smoke instead, continuing to push the envelope and test the limits of resilience and already stretched patience of the locals.
Redbean is absolutely right in saying that Singaporeans are NOT xenophobic.
I for one fully support Singapore to bring in as many aliens as possible. Reason?
Simple!
Without aliens, we will be kaput tomorrow.
Disagree?
Patriot,
You just commented on my blog post that you welcome PRCs with open arms. And that you also want them to be our leaders? Are you sure? You still feel that way? Langgar!

Its true that Singaporeans KPKB about foreigners when they make us a Dalit. Joker Sun Xu even call us a dog.
