So apparently not everyone in Singapore was as impressed as I was with the little ang moh kids’ Mandarin on this ‘be heard in Mandarin’ campaign:
APPARENTLY. Seeing little ang moh kids on television, with Mandarin better than theirs, causes young Singaporean kids to feel inadequate about themselves.
Adversely, if I saw little Chinese kids speaking English better than me (which is not difficult, trust me) would I feel the same way?
How about those three year old calculus geniuses that pop up from time to time in India too? My life would be a ruin if I were to think… “Oh no! I’m supposed to have some fancy degree yet these little three year old Indian kids pwnz my maths any day!”
