Wishcumstrue 6th Gear July 28, 2011 Share July 28, 2011 (edited) A BIG No to English from me. This language only serves as a tool for multi-ethnic interactions, education, commence and trade. It is never intended to replace any of the major Asian languages that are spoken and taught in Singapore.

Adrianli Hypersonic July 28, 2011 Share July 28, 2011 It reminds me of my Ba Yee RSM weilding a stick shouting at us "Sing Sing Sing, its ur national anthem. Who dont sing, I take this stick and beat ur backside!!!!" Then he will walk among us and stand next to us to hear it. If too soft, he will shout "Louder!!!" A real hair dryer treatment. Kena caught not singing, the stick will land on ur Ka Chng or poking ur Ar$e hole. These makes me memorised two very important songs which I think I will remember till I die. One is the National Anthem and another is the Navy song, Onwards n Upwards. Every wednesday at the parade square singing at the top of our voices.
