TBH Singapore is a really "ugly" country. Singaporeans have, in general, been pampered by their maids, cleaners, and foreign workers for too long. You can even see this at food courts. People just leave their trays with their dishes and used napkins strewn around on the table. Just taking a couple of seconds to put your dishes together and your dirty tissues into the bowl (or something like that) could help the cleaner a lot. We, Singaporeans, also don't respect foreign workers. It's disgusting to see people treating other people almost as if they were slaves.
Ever driven in Singapore? Compare driving in Tokyo with driving in Singapore. It's ridiculous.

when i was younger, i was told that singapore had strict laws, like no chewing gum, no spitting in public, etc. therefore, singapore was a super clean place in my mind.
i havent been there before, so i can't judge for myself. but based on this... i guess that perspective has changed.
I've heard this multiple times too. I heard you can go to jail for spitting on the street, but I guess cleaned is better than not cleaned...

In Greece, the bathrooms seem to be unisex. It's so weird to pee and then wash your hands with an older woman washing her hands right next to you. We should implement something like that everywhere.

We're not talking about pollution here =.="
We're talking about the lack of courtesy and self-respect within the society.

Should tell Fakesteve to do something about it.

korea is pretty bad too
you will see garbage on the streets, children after drinking cans just throwing them on the streets, leaving ice cream wrappers/candy wrappers on the ground, spitting everywhere even in classrooms, people who dont flush the toilet, students in schools just throw away their slippers everywhere because other people have to clean it, spitting gum, i remember one time i saw this women with her dog and her dog just took a crap and she just ignored it and walked off without cleaning it up and korea is cigerette butt heaven.
Im not so innocent when its comes to this though;; Trying though not to lately...

USA........ nuff said...
well, I live in the big city of NYC so I guess here, it does sort of varies area by area but most of the time, people do have to take into account of respect with toliets and manners when bumping into someone and etc.... but then again, if you think about it, in here and elsewhere in the world (including Singapore), anyone you happen to be and go, there's always the good, the bad, and the ugly....
and then to the extreme, the minor, and etc but we can get into that topic in an another time..
