Why Singaporeans so kiasu?
First of all, please do not use broken English like "Why Singaporeans so kiasu". "Kiasu" is not even an English word! It is meant to be " Why are Singaporeans so kiasu?" Anyway, Singaporeans are not "kiasu". Some of them are, yes, I agree. But not all are "kiasu". There are some who like to help people no matter what, though there are some who are the opposite. Stay away from people who are "kiasu", and try to make friends with people who are not. Singaporeans who are "kiasu" may be because they are not in the mood or that they are unfriendly. Do not go too close to them or they may make you unhappy. I hope that you find this information useful. Okay? I think that you should not say bad things about Singaporeans, though. You may make them unhappy.

What is it like in Singapore?
It was established in 1965,prior to that is was a trading port leased by the British from Malaysia.It is a country full of useless and lazy and rude people. Rated number 1 by a Readers Digest survey which pushed the government into a campaign called Smile Singapore campaign in attempt to change the behavior which has failed,and been reestablished twice.It is ridiculously expensive. Rated by Forbes as the ninth moth expensive city in the world, thusly making it number 1 most expensive country.It has the highest Math and Science scores on standardized tests, but the people are unable to do anything aside from spitting out repeated responses,creativity, and originality are all but outlawed.Although the tourist areas are kept Disneyland clean, the rest of the country is definitely of mainland Chinese heritage,as the areas are filthly, and clogged with litter. Singapore is 70% Chinese.Hygiene by civilized standards is almost non existant, they even rate their resteraunts by Classes (A,B, and C) determining the likelihood of getting food poisoning from eating at these establishments.There are no manners from the Singapore people, the word used is Kiasu, which they will tell you means capitalism, but the Chinese characters stand for (there are two used) Me,Myself, one visiting or living in Singapore, should expect to see selfish and rude driving, having people push the close button on an elevator when you are trying to get on, slamming doors in your face, walking directly into you on sidewalks, or in malls even after they see you.There is no freedom of Press.They are an extremely rascist people, this can be seen by the posting on the Ministry of Manpower website, where salaries are listed by nationality or cultural heritage (example A person of Indian or Chinese descent, but born in America with a Phd, will by national law make less money than a Singaporean with a BA )
