Conspiracy Theory 3: NUS

I chanced upon the website of this famous, amongst the World's top 20 Universities of National University of Singapore website one day.

Why is there not a Melayu version or Tamil version? These are also the official languages of Singapore. Why was Mandarin choosen only?

well.. considering that the race occupies 70+% of the nation's population, and an even larger proportion of those studying in universities.. might well be justified.. look around u.. how many frds do u have from other races?

Singapore's official language if we were to choose one, it will be Malay. Our national anthem is in Malay. This is probably because back in 40 years ago, we were surrounded by Muslim Nations. Now, we are still surrounded by Muslim Nations, but we have an uprising superpower friend.

At this rate that Singapore is "globalizing" (or rather "chinalizing", it will not be long before wearing "qi pao" is a fashion and watching "chinese opera" is a listed as a favourite past time in Singapore{mini China)

There is nothing wrong with China, in fact, it is good. Because China has a rich history of 5000 years. What's more, this can allow our economy to grow. So I see that this is a good sign that Singapore has taken and that welcoming them is very favourable.
