I was recently overseas and I bumped into some Singaporeans at Thailand, Chiang Mai airport. I felt sibei “xia suay”.
Heres why, They were in their 50s and they were shouting at a fast-food joint,
A woman who was sitting down with a few other women started to shout at their husbands who were queueing for food asking if there was beef in the cheeseburger.
A couple of seconds later, she asked if there were mushrooms, and a couple of seconds later she asked if there were onions. The man had to shout back and reply to them.
This went on and on for around 5 minutes. The man was at least 10 meters away from the group of shouting women and you can imagine the whole restaurant was staring at them.
If you guys are thinking about how I know they are Singaporeans, the accent, the slang and the Hokkien are definitely recognizable.
Even the staff from the fast food joint told them to not shout but they continued their wet market-style conversations.
Then when it was time to check in at the ticket counter, another group of Singaporeans started cutting the queue. *facepalm*
Sometimes people judged PRC tourists but I see no difference in these scenarios. Some SG tourists are really a disgrace overseas.
We are a first-world country, please behave like one. Especially those who are older, don’t use your age as an excuse to behave like a barbarian. Please age gracefully.
Some Singaporean tourist are really a disgrace when overseas.
