Two Independent Studies Point To Single Root Attribute of Singaporeans

2 reports from today's CNA:
Study Rates Singapore Fastest Moving City In The World
Survey Finds Majority of Singaporeans Concerned About Security

First report says that Singaporeans are the fastest bunch of walkers based on the walking speeds of pedestrians. Singaporeans take 10.55sec to cover 18metres, while a city in Malawi has pedestrians who take 31.60sec to cover the same distance. We are finally recognised as a united bunch of world record holders in the fine art of pedestrian walking.

Second report says Singaporeans are concerned about the misuse of credit cards and debit cards, with the main concern being internet security. Awareness?

Maybe so.... but both studies just point to a single fact - something so uniquely Singaporean:

WE ARE JUST A BUNCH OF KIASU PEOPLE!
