Our Society's Behaviour

What is becoming of our generation of people nowadays? They seemed absolutely self- centered and ignorant. Are we as parents and tutors fail to educate ourselves and the children of today basic courtesy? It is very sad to see that people around us do not seem to care or even be bothered to lend a helping hand to those in need. I was reading an article in the newspaper yesterday and someone wrote in that younger and healthy people not giving up seats to those elderly in public transport. This incident happened in the fast growing and educated people in singapore. Perhaps these people are not properly educated in the humane department.We are well civilised but some of these people just act like they were brought up in the jungle 200 b.c ago.Maybe we should blame parents who don't bother to even teach their kids proper manners when behaving in public.That is why when they grow up, they bocome ill-mannered pest. I work in the service line and i see a lot of asians behaving like uncivilised people in public. They are often rude and demanding to an absurd extend. I'm not a racist but it does happen here.Maybe there are a handful of people who are not like that. I am sure. Even i've encountered horrible neighbours in my own apartment and they are locals. I'm shocked that my so-called neighbours don't care to even lend a helping hand.I think if i was i held at gun point they would just leave me to die and they happily go on with their own lives.The very next thing that irritates me the most is that asians think we as asians in the service line tend to discriminate them just because we are nicer to the caucasians.Let me explain this... It is because they know their please and thank you very well and at least they bother to care. Maybe those racist caucasians are rude but i personally don't give a shit about them because they're probably living in Timbuktu.I am an asian and proud to be one but it is very disheartening to see our own people acting like that.Perhaps it is time we all change our concept of being more caring and understanding.Most importantly if we expect others to change, we should first of all teach our own family to be courteous and instill a sense of righteousness within our own community. If we all expect but do nothing about it then we will forever behave that way.
