Women and taxi drivers stop anywhere along the road. Taxi drivers are road hogs, honking at the vehicle in front of them the moment the traffic light turns green. Merc drivers think they're the only ones who pay road tax. Vehicle owners who take their time to leave the carpark space in a shopping mall, fully aware that others are eagerly waiting for the space. Then there are those who place their shopping bags next to them, thus depriving others of a seat.
Some expats buy their groceries from wet markets and interact with the locals.
I have colleagues who have double standard too. So, you see, some of us hold these expats in such high esteem that we can't really put all the blame on ugly expats, because those who give them such respect are happy to remain as colonial slaves. Some of my best friends are expats. They are just so keen to know more about our culture and our lives here. Like most Singaporeans, I welcome anyone who works and lives here.
