It's bad enough the locals don't like us, without us giving them real reasons to do so!

Phew...no Americans, or "Yanks" for some of you.

Talk about stupid moves, not the country to pull stuff like that and expect to get away with it.

No no no...locals do welcome foreigeners/FT/FL etc etc...

The problem is, like alcohol, too much of them and your system will begin to fail...starting from the brain.

And yes, I agree a rattan-job on "The Three Stooges" will help purge, if not domesticate, such menace in Singapore. :wink:

I'd like to see those ar$eholes try the same nonsense in Thailand. They'd never be seen again.

I'd like to say "they wouldn't try that crap at home" but the truth is, they probably would. And they'd probably get away with it, or get a slap with the ol' bus ticket at most.

Pretty stupid to try that kind of behaviour out in Singapore! Idiots.
