Singaporeans, become smart and intelligent by their very nature to survive for their country. They are the result of 50 years of behavior training by Government system, founding father. Almost every male also were need to serve army and trained and teachers were warned that if their students displayed any thinking that differed from the party line, they would be disciplined.
Most of Civil officials were high rank army officer and instructed to carry out the commands of the ruling party, to favor followers of the ruling party, and to penalize anyone with independent thoughts. The Singaporean is someone who looks to speak English (Singlish) can write and read English, but has no idea what his rights are since he believes he doesn't have any.
Children also are trained by ex-army or ex-army wives and daughters, into thinking like morons, unable to think for themselves. The more time they spend in Singapore, the more communist they become. After completing national service, more likely they changed their thinking for their country to love and respect to china. Even they can't avoid US, they start to hate US movement on the world.
Some Singaporeans depart the island for the West in their early twenties. For them, it is too late to relocate to the West. Their brains have already been wiped off. They can't compete with America's and the West's independent-thinking, confident young men and women. As a result, most of them find themselves living the same boring, uninteresting life they did in Singapore.
In the West, this mentality inevitably leads to failure. They are unable to think and lack confidence.
If you wish to save your child from Lee's brainwashing, you must take him out when he is little. Coming to the West in your twenties is a waste of time. You could just as well stay in Singapore and appease as a condition of survival.
