Example like saying Indians all stinks in front of an Indian and in English somemore. I'm so surprised that they are Singaporeans, who are supposed to be more exposed to multi-racial. Guess they only go Chinatown, and their whole life they nvr went to Little Indian. And it is true, they act like Little Indian is some mine-field to be avoid at all cost.

Now is a good time for us to learn and avoid any misundestandings to others :) I believe several of those were brought down from the older generations but with no intention to discriminate.

Oops, I have to admit that I have done the do you speak indian thing. I guess i've always looked at it, in a literal point of you. You know, Indian languages, so can you speak any indian languages, shortened to, can you speak any Indian? ha. Ha, oh, the white one and black one is classic! I always say Neither! And people are like, but where else could you be from anyhow? And I go, the East! Somehow, they are so sure of how the Indians look in the South or North, but somehow, the East and West of India are not populated at all. Hmmm. oh, really?

But, alas, the rest is a combo of ignorance and pride. Some of us has simply lost our humility as we grow from 3rd to 1st world. During my six years stay in the US, Americans like to ask some Asians/Africans if their houses is up on trees. Bottomline is be respectful of others' culture. :) Cheers, I must some of it is funny, like “do you speak Indian”. But, alas, the rest is a combo of ignorance and pride.
