This Country Is a Tiny PRC



Singaporeans complain about the manner of people from mainland
China here. They are probably right in doing so. But it used to be
“ugly Americans” and “ugly Japanese.” And production and sales of
chewing gum is still banned in this country because the government
thinks its people spit it out dirtying the streets. Which tells us
something about their own manner. Singapore, an overwhelmingly
Chinese nation with controlled freedom of expression, is a tiny PRC.
