The term "taiwanese" is only used to denote the language spoken by the people living in the island of Taiwan. In SG, it is called Hokkien. They are similar dialect with minute differences. Hokkein is very much alive in SG. I was raised in a household that speaks predominantly hokkien.

I suggest you try going back to school, or do some research, before spouting nonsense on the board.
