mr leong once mentioned to us about how when he last visited italy, the italians discriminated against all asians other than Japanese. But it's actually also kind of happening right here in Singapore too! I went to Newton Food Centre for Lunch today. The shopkeepers there would go up to all the tourists and say " Hello Sir, would you like to try our........" and give them a menu and direct them to an empty seat. As for us locals, we have to go to their stall to order. And i even heard this man screaming to the drinks lady " ZA BOR DONT WANT TO TAKE ORDERS FOR DRINKS AH( in hokkien) ANG MOH LEH" And their prices are like exorbitant. I think their mindsets are like " eh ang moh leh, can suck their money". Moving on, did you know that The American Club( near orchard) has people standing guard outside their doors, armed with rifles. Do you see this happening at say, SSC or CSC? Anyway, after that we headed down to this Red Cross International Bazaar. It was kind of cool to see all the people from different countries and try their local delights. And some restaurants, such as Indochine and Black Angus Steakhouse also took part in the fair. Should have gone there for lunch instead la. melissa at 8:44 PM |
