It's funny to see how our society has begun to crumble.
It's funnier to to see how different races crumble.
First, we begin to see malay youths sitting by the void deck listening to loud 'hip hop' blasting through their handphones. Them talkin' like this fo shizzle n wearin' them caps so high the wind will jez blo them off the roof yo~ PEACE~
But even so, why is it so that when the time comes, they are still able to switch back to a culturally correct muslim?
I think that is what's lacking in the chinese community as of now.
We're beginning to witness something like cultural imperialism. It might not be from western though, why not look inwards? I'm talking about the sudden increase of kids wearing the peranakan costumes this Lunar New Year (last year it was the korean dresses if i'm not wrong).
Aside from that. Why is it that when the older folks dress in traditional clothes, no one makes any comment? And when a teenager puts on a traditional top, the first thing that comes to mind is "eh go where sia? Chinese New Year visits ah?".
Are our traditional clothes that 'ancient'? Must we be of age to be able to wear something like that? So you mean your jeans aren't of old origins?
