Hi Wonton,

Hi Wonton,

sorry I live in the USA up until I was around 6 and most Americans I know are not 100% of Anglo, French, German ....most have have 2 or more "cultural background". I think you have got race mixed up with colour unless you are trying to imply they are all "white". I don't know how come you have this really misinformed idea of being "mixed" as being "coloured"... eeeewwww

Next, I certainly don't know you have got your history right. I grow up in Singapore and all the people I know basically can trace their roots back to Melaka, Johore , Java or Sumatra (have you ever been to Sinagpore? Or lived there?). In fact if you want to count Singaporeans by generations, the closer would be around 8. Have you heard of Peranakans? China govt generally considered them chinese. A lot of the Singaporean "chinese" by definition are actually at least part Peranakan. Do you know that in the up to the 1900s, it was a taboo to carry women on ships? Tell where the hell did chinese men marry their wife/ wivies if they don't marry locals? Same for European ships..but I think there were the pirates thingy as well..This is not my point

Anyway, point of argument is, you don't have to shave your head like a monk, carry a crucifix like a priest etc to be sensitive to people from differnt religion. This statement is insulting to even begin with. Are you implying that all buddhist ought to shave their head and all Christians need to carry a crucifix everywhere around. I am Christians and I don't do that.

Last of all, did I piss anyone off? I supposed you were the one who had pissed AussieBp off so much that Jianshuo have to step in to make a public apology. You are indeed a pain in the ass.
