a friendly smile the holding open of a di ask myself this question over and over, even as a young person at the age of 15, i see people walking around thinking they own the place, i believe that the main reason people look at you this way is because most people cant be trusted. i dont think we will ever know why peoples behaviour has declined so rapidly in the past 20 years as i am forever being told how it has changed, and have seen a major difference in the past 10 years myself, people are losing a lot of respect for themselves, and other people, but most importantly the people who have fought in the world wars to keep our tradition of over thousands of years, but it has all gone to waste all because a couple of people coldnt care less, which puts our appearance in jeopardy.

Great answer above! Wow and from a 15 year old. Too bad more people aren't so smart. I agree that a lot of it is lack of trust. In addition, a lot of people are stressed these days with work, children, money or lack of it, etc. It also depends on where you live. Occasionally, a guy will hold the door open for me but it always takes me off guard because it doesn't happen that often. I was recently in a convenience store in a smaller town in the "country" and this guy actually moved over so I could walk down the aise to get a coke. It surprised me but I smiled and said thank you! I'm always friendly to people, speak to them, and smile anyway. The world needs more of it. I've had many people tell me how I made their day because I joke around with them and smile a lot even when I'm having a bad day....unless it's a really bad day then I pretty much hide out.

Pretty much some people have a lot of bad stuff going on in there life so like the fella above me i try to cheer people and make people life. I see it as my goal in life. If someone bes hostile to me i either leave them or try to cheer em up. Its a rewarding job :D

Are people in Singapore friendly?

I can say that they can be friendly if you give them a good first impression but they can be very unfriendly if you start out with their bad side. Usually, they are friendly and will lend a hand if you need. Unfortunately, just like every country's people, they are also those who you would rather avoid. If you are an outsider, not many people will react but if they do, it is usually friendly. As a Singaporean, I feel that most people are friendly although their faces do not show it. Somehow, they never smile even when I smile at them.
