Speak Good English .

'Engrish'? or English?
Speaking good English is a good way of communicating to other people. For example, when you do not understand other languages, we can always speak English to the other party which is of different race. Imagine if a foreigner comes to you and ask for directions and you speak singlish, he will try to understand what we are trying to say and will ask you to try to speak again. Tourist will look down on Singaporeans and Singapore will have a bad reputation. Even in China, they are learning English. English has become an international language for the whole world. That is why China students are now learning English. You will have to speak good English if you are to go to countries like the United States of America or Britain or you will be having a hard time communicating with the people there. English in Singapore is the 1st priority. For example, in school, to graduate to the next level, you will have to pass English, 2 other subjects and the overall percentage. From here, you can see that English is very important for education and your future. Although Singapore consist of many races, most of us are speaking Singlish. We need to take the effort and time to slowly learn English. Like Ms Ris Lo, yes she is the Miss Singapore Universe but can you see how she speaks English? Outstanding is 'BOOMZ' and bikini become 'Bigini'. If she represent Singapore at Miss World Universe and adress herself as a Singaporean, other countries will look down on Singapore.
