Singaporean influencer (@olliechinny) has gone viral for saying she finally understands what it means to be a minority after living in Switzerland for 7 years
don't know if this has escaped containment outside of singapore, but an influencer went viral a couple days ago after she made a tone deaf post about how she realized racism was a thing after she moved to switzerland even though racism is a really big issue in singapore already (and she would have known this had she actually interacted with people outside her race).
for context!! chinese singaporeans are the racial majority in singapore but the whole point of the country is that it's diverse, with prominent indigenous(!!) malay and indian communities that unfortunately face a lot of discrimination, colorism, and racism regularly by the chinese majority.
