Singapore is certainly living up to the name...quite literally. The past decade has seen this country transform itself into a more liberal and westernised society. But with change has also come a price. Singaporeans have seen disturbing changes in their lives..not for the good but for the bad..... The much respected asian values & cultures are slowly disintergrating and eventually disappearing as they are forced to become irrelevant. These changes are seen across all the races in singapore especially the chinese and malay community. However amongst these communities i have observed that the females are the ones most absorbed into this newfound western culture that allows them all the freedom they can have that was not possible in a strict asian culture.
It's no suprise to see how such girls dress so scantily these days. Showing off butt-cracks,bellies and boobs in public is considered normal to these modernist females. The clothes they wear are as minimal as possible. Bar-top dancing or pole-dancing are considered acceptable behaviours. For these women, it's not practical to have asian values anymore. They don't believe in settling down and have kids but are more concerned about material wealth and multiple relationships. That is why less people are getting married and more people are getting divorced and staying single. Some people fail to understand that not everything that comes from the west is good. In western countries, the whole family system is no longer relevant because couples cohibit without getting married. The children are brought up with no legal parents and this disturbs the whole family balance. The whole social fabric in the west is facing a collapse. If singapore does not start taking measures to protect it's asian heritage and cultivate the rich values and cultures to the young generation...then a social disoder will be inevitable.
