In singapore we are able to understand other people races and culture. we are able to get along with each other well. Unlike other countries, where people are not able to assimilate, due to the fact that they are not exposed to other races.

This makes us Singaporeans as our diversity indeed made some racist and some racially harmonious.... :)

though i might agree, but do you realise that in singapore they show the most racist remarks because there are many races are around us to let us taunt. where in countries that are not exposed to other races, they only treat other races they see as tourist but they do not remark or taunt.

Yes i agree as i believe that Singapore is one of the only countries in the world that has racial harmony. And i have a reason to believe that the people of Singapore have learnt to get along with others well.

I believe that Singapore is the only country to have so many races all living in a small island. We are more exposed to racial harmony than any other country, probably because other countries only have one race living together.
True Singaporeans do not judge other people by colour. That is why so many of us is able to be friends with people of different races.

Cher Don, perhaps you are speaking of a small minority of people who are unable to appreciate people of different races and cultures? I believe that the majority of Singaporeans are well aware of the impacts of racism and have no intention of walking down that road... :)

Yes i agree. Being able to accept other races and respect them is what makes Singapore a better place to live in, a place without any racist comment
