S'poreans lack of social graces

Not long ago during the long December break, my family went to Melbourne, Australia to experience a different culture and most importantly, have a fantastic time. We took the tram every morning to Victoria Market without fail as it had a large variety of things sold ranging from fresh food, cooked food, accesories, clothes and much much more! Even though there was so much things sold there, it was not what caught my attention the most. The first thing I noticed on the tram was that people gave way to each other, saying "excuse me" when they needed to squeeze through the crowd to get to the exit. Everywhere I went, the people were both friendly and courteous.
Back at home in Singapore, the people are rude and always rushing and shoving just to get into the MRT train or the bus. Taking the MRT train and bus is a daily routine for me and i'm always noticing how "gracious" Singaporeans are. At times, when I go to a fast food chain to have a meal, the cashier would rudely say" What you want?' instead of saying "May i take your order please?" I am not the only one complaining about Singaporeans lacking social graces. Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew also remakred about not seeing a gracious society in Singapore. I feel that the extent of the problem is so great that it would take one generation for Singaporeans to be gracious. We must educated our children that education is not all about getting good results and studying, but also to be a courteous person. I would love to see Singaporeans as gracious as the Australians before I die! But I doubt Singapore will ever be one... all due to the "KIASU" mindset!

Signing off,
Lola!
