Humouring Singapore

A few videos that caught my eye recently. They are hilarious... maybe Singaporeans do have a sense of humour after all.

A song & dance by a local comedian, Hossan Leong, about what it means to be Singaporean.

A skit by some chick named Ruby Pan about English as she is spoken in Singapore.

Another skit about speaking Singlish. Damn... just what the hell do they teach in those international schools? Kinda surreal watching 13 year old gwai chai (caucasian kids) speak like Phua Chu Kang.

This guy is a lecturer at NTU (Nanyang Tech University). He's asking for annual feedback about his teaching from his students. Some of the feedback is damn good.
