Racism in Singapore

In my opinion, I think that there is not enough things done to combat racism. I think that laws should be implemented on people that committed crimes related with racism, like offending people of different race or showed racism through the media or actions, violence. This way, people would think twice before acting to be racism. Also, because insufficient is done to combat racism, racism still exist even now, and people will find other means to cause racist actions or racist comments, through the Internet or racism jokes. Now, people might still treat people differently depending on their skin colour, or their parents might also want their child to be successful or not. Because in some cases, I've seen white kids, being forced to study and get good grade for studies while black kids might not be forced as much as white kids, and are free to choose their future. White kids would also have more freedom than black kids, when they're a teenager or a kid.

I think that racism can be dealt with in Singapore by using laws, such as fines or maybe a letter of apology. And maybe mist exchange programs are organised by schools. As racism normally start when a kid start primary school, being in a totally Chinese school would cause the child to have lack of contact with people from other race and learn lesser things about their culture, their ways of handling things and what might be sensitive to them.
