I guess it is very logical for Spore govt to continuously pushing all means possible to increase Singaporeans graciousness. It is in Spore's interest to push their graciousness to max since they wanted to promote Singapore as a Tourism site and not a big Mall Island where people can shop.I realize that Singaporean is not exactly gracious.. nor are they friendly. At least that is how they look like. Singaporean doesn't smile very often, they walk very fast and they don't have time to pay attention to other people especially due to the fact that they always have an urgent matter to attend to.But don’t judge the book by its cover, it’s true that Singaporean don’t really smile when they happen to make eye contact with stranger, but they give seat to people who needs it (maybe because now we have Stomper everywhere) and they do are a good people if you know them.Graciousness is never about other people. It is something that comes from the kind heart. I guess sporrans sometimes are just too busy to stop for a minute and look around.
