A netizen got told off by 2 South Asian women and is afraid of confronting any of them anymore, for fear of being called a racist.
He/she was at Simei when a couple of South Asian women got off the bus and took off their masks. They then started chatting away. The netizen approached them and nicely advised them to put on their masks but got accused for being a racist instead.
“They told me to buzz off and I have no right to tell them what to do. I told them that it is the law here that everyone must put on a mask unless they are doing exercise. They then say walking is also an exercise, and accuse me of being a racist for harassing them because they are from India.”
So now telling people to put on a mask makes you a racist? Anything involving 2 people of different races = racist?
“Since when calling them out for breaking the law is consider as racism? They started filming me and kept shouting at me calling me a racist for harassing them, but when I took out my phone to do the same, they quickly put on their mask and walk away.
Seriously if I have not encountered such a thing myself, I would not have believe our country has come to a stage where racism gets thrown about for every slightest incident. Now I am afraid to confront these people when I see them breaking the law fearing that they might twist their story and accuse me of racism.”
The above is posted in All Singapore Stuff. This is what would happen to a society when every idiot started to shout racism for the right or wrong reason, or to appear to be politically correct to do so. Now the real racists are hiding behind this racism label to attack others of racism.
Anyone still want to shout into the loudspeaker about racism to keep flaming this issue?
Did anyone been beaten by the Chinese majority because of the colour of his skin in Singapore? Or the Chinese being beaten by the minorities instead?

SINGAPORE — A 44-year-old male Singapore permanent resident (PR) died from COVID-19 infection on Sunday (20 June), the Ministry of Health (MOH) said on Monday.
The man was admitted to Alexandra Hospital on 25 May, and was confirmed to have COVID-19 infection on 26 May. He had not been vaccinated against COVID-19, and had a history of diabetes mellitus.
He was the 35th person in Singapore to have died from COVID-19 and the second youngest fatality. The youngest person to have died from the disease here is a 41-year-old male Chinese national.
Where is this PR from? Afraid to reveal where he is from?
Tell this to the powerful Home Affairs minister .
Warnings of possible 3rd wave as India eases lockdown on Yoga Day
Over a dozen cities and regions in India eased lockdown restrictions on Monday, also celebrated as the 7th International Day of Yoga. Known as a yoga enthusiast, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi during a virtual appearance on Monday described Yoga as a "ray of hope" and a "source of strength" for the COVID-19 fight which has caused 29.9 million infections and 388,000 deaths in the country.
India has seen a decline in positive cases, on Monday recording 53,256 new infections and 1,422 deaths over the past 24 hours.
Under the cheerful atmosphere of Yoga Day, Karnataka state in southwest India announced relaxations from Monday in 16 districts that have recorded fewer cases, including Bangalore.
Media reported that crowds thronged the streets of many parts of India after anti-epidemic measures were relaxed. People returning to work gathered at railway stations and shopping malls in Delhi over the weekend. Many ignored mask-wearing and social distancing rules.
The Delhi government on Sunday announced it would reopen bars, public parks, gardens and golf clubs from Monday. Restaurants can serve alcohol from Monday and outdoor yoga activities will be allowed.
However, citing an expert, Reuters reported that easing the lockdown before the epidemic is under control may lead to a third wave of coronavirus infections, which is likely to hit India by October.
As the Delta variant has spread to more than 80 countries, Randeep Guleria, director of the All India Institute of Medical Science on Saturday warned of a possible third domestic wave which could arrive in the next six to eight weeks, Indian media reported.
India lives and operates by its own rules, but the way it has handled the epidemic has posed a real global strain and challenge, an expert said, noting that India is very likely to have a third wave.
The Delta variant may be dangerous to other countries but not to India. See how fast they controlled the spread, from 400,000 daily to 53,000 daily.
India must have found the miracle cure. Or maybe the Delta variant would die instead.
Reality Bites: Power Struggles In Singapore
Many people shy away from talking about it, but this issue, extremely critical and vital issue dear to our heart, is not about racism. Racism is now being wielded as one of the weapons of mass destruction by some quarters to extend their political clout and laxity.
In fact, in reality, for all intents and purposes, it is about power struggles.
Knowing that the present Prime Minister is frail and pale looking, weak and sickly, and probably desperate and disoriented, the power-grabbers are planning and working, and waiting very anxiously behind the scenes, along the corridor of power, to wrestle power, and to ultimately usurp the throne of power, so to speak.
It is a power struggle amongst the fourth generation leaders, as well as a power struggle between ethnic groupings, especially between the
local South Asians and local Chinese.
As can be clearly seen, the local South Asians are cooperating (and perhaps also conspiring behind the scenes) with foreign South Asians to undermine the racial balance and harmony in Singapore.
Why?
One simple and obvious reason is because this minority ethnic grouping is not happy to be just a minority, even though they are enjoying more of everything than the other two bigger ethnic groupings of the Singapore population.
They want, I venture to guess, to have full control of Singapore! To govern and run Singapore. And, they are succeeding very well so far.
They are succeeding because certain ethnic Chinese leaders in power today are either oblivious of the danger in thinly veiled power struggles, or prefer not to talk about it, or are too busy fattening their own bank accounts and have neglected to check and stop it from progressing further.
In fact, on the contrary, it seems that the ethnic Chinese leaders are helping the local and foreign South Asians to strengthen and consolidate the latter's power, both in the public and private sectors, over the last 10 years or so.
Today, as can be seen everywhere, at every level, especially at the very top level, local South Asians and foreign South Asians are working cordially and enthusiastically to further their common interests and common objectives, for mutual benefits.
They are already holding many top, key and critical positions in the government, semi-government, and private sectors, especially in the academic, banking, financial, legal, security and technological sectors.
So, unless someone put a stop to it, the writing is already on the wall. Very soon, the bo-chap ethnic Chinese majority will be replaced by South Asians. And that will be Sayonara to the ethnic Chinese majority government in Singapore.
Que sera sera, whatever will be will be?
Little boys and girls, can you think deeper and wider, please?
Queen of Hearts.
Don't worry, the stupidity has no cure type are not worrying as long as they got their million dollar salary every month. Singapore can be taken over by anyone, they would not bother. Modi, please come and be our PM.
The only one that bothers would be those that have big family fortunes that may be up for grabs or cheong kong when there is a change of political fortune. In such an event, fortunes can be wiped out over night...and worse thing could happen.
They better pray he does not kick the bucket over night. All the pieces are in place for such a day.
Who is making the contingency plan for such a day and who would disappear to prevent a coup?
Culprits cannot use claims of racism as a shield to violate the law. Everyone is equal in front of the law. Hope the people in charge understand.
Immediate Actions Required To Prevent Racial Riots Arising
Singapore's laws forbid any discussion on race, language and religion. These are taboo subjects that have been legally enforced over the last 5 decades.
Now that foreigners, PRs and New Citizens from India have grown in great numbers in Singapore, it looks like they are trying to assert their presence and dominance in the Singapore society. As such, they are making use of Racism to stir up racial tensions in Singapore in order to further their own selfish interests.
The Ministry for Law and the Ministry for Home Affairs must not allow this to progress or expand further. This talk about Race and Racism must be nipped at the bud now. Otherwise, if racial riots were to happen again, the two ministries are to be held responsible.
It is better to take preventive actions now, before the issue gets out of hand.
Be aware, be warned
SSO - 22 June 2021.
The racist brother and sister team is at it again, producing another clip to berate others as racists. After the last warning by the police, they are back at their pet subject.
Because they have someone very high up to back them up.
Wonder when we will be told we cannot identify ourselves as Chinese but call us South-east Asian Singaporeans?
Someone must be getting too big for his shoes, and he is giving the little prits hats too big for their heads.
Naturally and obviously, when you put an Indian in-charge of Immigration, you can rest assured that more Indians will become New Citizens.
Likewise, when you put an Indian in-charge Banking, you can rest assured that more Indians will be employed in the Banking Industry.
Likewise, when you put an Indian in-charge of Law, you can rest assured that the Chief Justice will also be an Indian.
Likewise, when you put an Indian in-charge of Security, you can rest assured that more and more Indians will be employed as security personnel.
Likewise, when you put an Indian in-charge of Investments, you can rest assured that more and more investments will be made in India.
And so on and so forth....
Thought CECA as an issue should be under the ambit of the Trade, Foreign Affairs or Manpower ministries or PMO, not brought up by other ministries . .
PSP no need to convince Sinkies on the ills of the CECA issue. Sinkies know from real life experience.
Trying to defend CECA is like trying to say black is actually white or day is actually night, losing all credibility, with motives questioned.
According to Wikipedia, PSP's Leong Mun Wai was awarded an Overseas Merit Scholarship by the Singapore Government in 1979 to study Economics in Hitotsubashi University in Japan. Leong furthered his education and obtained a MSc in Management from London Business School in 1992. Leong began his career in 1986 with the Government of Singapore Investment Corporation and subsequently worked with global investment banks in Tokyo, London and Hong Kong, assisting more than 100 companies in their IPOs and fund raising. He returned to Singapore in 1997 to assume an appointment as Managing Director of OCBC Securities, a wholly owned subsidiary of OCBC Bank, and one of the leading securities and futures brokerage firms in Singapore.
A person so well educated as PSP's Leong and with so much experience in professional international financial investment for so many years can be wrong about the ills of India CECA meh ?
"In five years, you will have 120,000, in 10 years, a quarter million. They are good workers. They are hungry, they are lean, they are keen. But I have a responsibility to you. In 10 years, can we digest so many? There will be cultural, linguistic, social and political problems." - Lee Yuan Yew on foreign workforce, 1979.
Leong will be taking on a typical lawyer that is normally bad in numbers and everything else except using words to threaten, with the power behind him. Leong should just throw numbers at the lawyer and spin him round and round. This is an area that most lawyers catch no balls, and cannot lie.
