Is there a lot of diversity? Are people in Singapore accepting of differences?

Answer this Question

When we asked people about diversity in Singapore and whether locals are accepting of differences, they said...

"Singapore is a multi-cultural and multi-ethnic society, with a diverse population of Chinese, Malays, Indians, and other ethnicities. People in Singapore are generally accepting of differences and celebrate the diversity of cultures and backgrounds. Singapore is known for its racial and religious harmony, and the government has taken steps to ensure that all citizens are treated equally and with respect," said another expat in Singapore.

"The locals are fairly accepting of diversity although there is some underlying racism between some of the different racial groups that all locals will deny exists. The Chinese think the Malays are lazy and the Indians and Bangladeshies are theives. The Malays think the Chinese are tight and very non-generous. The Indians tend to keep to themselves and do not mix much with any other races. These are of course generalisations but the locals will all deny any of this exists. Overall all races are very accepting of expats, especially Australians, Kiwis and Brits," wrote a member who made the move to Singapore, Singapore.
