Singapore being a multiracial society, the goverment have been encouraging citizens to be more open minded towards the differences across the various ethnicity groups. As our PM has emphasized the importance of not taking racial harmony for granted (see link ), I believe it is only in the spirit and sincerity of interactions, can we sustain a peaceful society.
According to statistics, in singapore the majority of inter-racial marriages are between Chinese and Indians. The offsprings of such intermarriages between an Indian groom and a Chinese bride, are known as "Chindians" (see link). Even between undergraduates, there are instances of such possibility.
For example, NUS undergraduates Vimal Goklani, 21 and Dominique Khoo, 22 are the best spokesperson for the union between races.

To promote the inter-racial relationships in a social setting like communal living, they have even come up with special couple tee design which emphasize LOVE.
In addition, they took part in the match-making event organised by SSDU as the emcees for the night. The event was successful as it attracted the particpation of more than 50 inter-racial couples.

Bubble Tea Love
An unidentified couple was seen lurking along Level * Short Wing this aftnn...
We witnessed a sneaky transaction between the 2 and spotted a familiar face with high cheek bones that can rival Fann Wong!
We realized that the transaction included a cup of 爱心 Bubble Tea!
The happy smile on her face was unmistakable :))))))
SO WHO EXACTLY IS THE GUY WHO MADE THE CAPABLE, INTELLIGENT AND SHARP FUTURE LAWYER SO HAPPY?! . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Is this the start of a blooming relationship? Is there more to it than meets the eye? Would they progress exponentially this reading week?
Everyone keep your eyes open, and stay tuned :)
XOXO, We love M&Ms - melts in your mouth, but not in your hands.
