Devised Monologue: Singaporeans

Finding a sit.
Holding a cup of coffee.

WHAT?!! NOT AGAIN!!… Look around and found a sit to sit down, yet with a few packets of tissues on it already.. Phew!! It’s a good thing I managed to get a sit among the many packets of tissues.

Sipping Coffee.
My goodness, not again.. Always using tissue packets to chop seats.
These Singaporeans, only know how to do these things. Look around you, dirty tables here and there with food all over their tables. Turn around and look at the queues, we really have no sense of queuing up. There isn’t even a straight line.


However, this is a typical scene you see in coffee shops nowadays, either you bear with it OR you don’t go there. BUT, I suggest we just try to adapt to the environment.

no sense of………. Lucky no smoking alr…


You really don’t know what’s up next on their Trademark- “Kiasu-ism” list, and when you know, you probably get a shock out of your life. From a packet of to____________________________________. Anything is possible.

As a country, we seem like a little perfect child, compared to the other big “brothers” in the world. However, it does not always seem like how it is. Yes, I was once told that Singapore is the country Walt Disney would have liked to create: clean, fun, pleasant, and with hidden security guards lurking behind the façade to lead you away if you step one inch out of line. This is kind of true, but at least the line is a little broader in Singapore than it is in Disneyland.

Yes, we claim that we are developed countries, yet we behave like a third world country, sadly… like an adult behaviour it’s own shoe size!!
As a local myself, sometimes pondering on our behaviours, I find that Singaporeans are really ironical, perhaps, CONTRIDICTING!!
I mean, Look,
1 . Nite - Sleep with air-con, Day - Bath with heater on

2. Day - Cannot Wake up, Nite - Cannot Sleep

7. Half of Sg ppl dunno how to speak the country's language (malay)

9. There are also quite a few high-tech barbaric singaporean
in sg - They know how to use state-of-the art equipment,

10. Sg ppl rush to buy Hello kitty, the other side busy killing
stray cats

12. Cigarettes - Convienent to buy, not convienent to smoke

13. Private Cars - Cheaper and Cheaper to buy, harder and
harder to Maintain
