Going to be hectic weeks ahead, AAJ332's test has so much to study..

AMX tutorial this morning, my tutor made a rather interesting remark, which is an observation that she made about Singaporeans. We were discussing recognition, identity and stuff regarding racial and religious differences in Singapore, with the Tudong incident in 2002 as case study.. She then said: "People(Chinese Christians) are using western lens to view their own native culture." Cos she said she noticed that alot of those who thinks that Taoist beliefs are superstitious are mostly the Chinese Christians, and the other races usually would not say so... Well I think it is quite a good point brought up, cos this is a common phenomenon in SG.. I think this module really is about discussing the racial and religious differences.. My tutor also mentioned that we cannot call ourselves a multi-cultural society if there are no understanding and interactions between people of different cultures.. To a certain extend then, Singapore is not a multi-cultural society! cos people usually don't understand the cultures and practices of other religions and races.. We do know about the existence of such cultures and practices, but more often than not, we do not understand the true rationale behind it, and will think that they are not of equal worth as our own cultures..
