This topic today might be a lil sensitive to some so read with an open mind oteh?
In Singapore, Malays are always being branded. Usually, associated with bad stuff. No need for me to list them down. You should know the list by now. I am not ashamed to say, I used to not mix around with Malays either. I dunno why. I just find that our Malays are not motivated enuff and that if I mixed around with them, I would not get far myself.
And I used to not like mixing with Malay girls. I can't stand the bitching around, the typical politics and the endless jealousy and envy they carry around with them.
Yet, I have to say this, Malay girls I salute. Now many of my malay girlfrens are doing well both career wise and family wise. Many, did better than I. Well, I guess my philosophy then was wrong..But the typical bitching around, jealousy and dun want to lose attitude is still there lah. I do my best not to get caught up in such things when there is a "political surge" amongst them. Hehehe. A Chinese girlfren or rather colleague once told me, "I used to not like Malay girls.(For the reasons I have stated earlier.) But you are different, you are not like the typical Malay girls I know." This is not to brag but I am glad I made a difference and changed someone's opinion of Malay girls. Cos she said, Malay girls no matter how modern still hold on to their traditional values and discipline.
That aside, one of the brands Malays used to be labeled with, is that our Malays guys are reject stuff when it comes to NS. You would find most of the guys going to the SCDF are Malays. Wonder huh? They used to do constructions and manial labour work. But I dare say these guys have made a difference while in service in the SCDF. People’s mindset of the SCDF have changed. I guess people are appreciating the SCDF better now. Now, even if a malay guy is posted to the SCDF, I won't say that they are reject stuff. SCDF's work now is as if not more important than other defence departments especially in rescue operations.
Ok, there is an incident at work last week that really upheaved all that I have just written. My work place is largely dominated by men. The number of women here can easily be counted using the fingers on my two hands. SO,being men, they will usually, openly boast about everything and anything under the sun, especially about their sexual encounters. Working here for 6 yrs has made me immune to such talk till last week.
One of the guys was showing off a video he kept in his hp. As usual, they exchange and pass the sexual videos like nobody’s business. What caught my attention was that they were talking about the girl in the video. Her name was M****, an officer with at least a SGT ranking in the SCDF doing sexual acts with the guys in SCDF in their own bunks!!!
How daring is that? How the guys knew her name? Singapore is a very very, very, very tiny lil island. Everyone knows someone who knows everyone else. So they claimed the girl is known to be active in this Malay chatsite that is quite popular in Singapore.
This is something so common nowadays. I wonder why these Malay girls are willing to degrade themselves so? They dun seem to miss a beat with the fact that these videos only show their faces and not the guys. Like a male colleague of mine said, soon the dowry of Malay girls in SG will drop to nothing. Dun these girls think that one day the videos might fall into the hands of their own family members? Is there no longer the sense of shame a Malay girl should feel? I was once naughty too(But not as bold as these girls hor!!), but I know where my limits as a girl, especially a Malay girl stands. Even though I was not as bold as these girls are, till date I am still worried my past would catch up with me and my family. I shudder to think of the consequences of the stupid things I did then would cause me and family.
I can't bear to think of how the girl's family would feel if they were to one day, see the video their daughter had taken. This had only made me think of how the women nowadays seem to have lost their morale values. Stories of how women nowadays snatching people’s husbands, fiancés and wat have yous. The finger no longer points to men alone for it seems the women are also playing a very active role in the moral decline of our society. I shudder to think of the environment my kids will be growing up in.
