!asians it's doubly funny because "hei" = "black" in chinese so "heiniger" = black

Hong Kong is also U.S. but Taiwan is China

no mention on singapore's draconian drug laws, a compliant population and highly-remunerated (and therefore highly competent) politicians?

also obligatory “disneyland with the death penalty”:

>Singapore is the most boring, sterile place I've ever been. I'd take Tokyo, Taipei, or Hong Kong over it in a heartbeat. The entire country reminds me of a mall. William Gibson's 1993 Wired article "Disneyland with the Death Penalty" (https://www.wired.com/1993/04/gibson-2/) is still as relevant as ever.

I saw a fascinating talk that convincingly argued that the Chinese Communist Party has taken its game plan over the last 30 years from Singapore, a de facto one party state led by the People's Action Party. It's interesting to note that this party was founded on socialist principles but is now firmly capitalist.

It's time again for Hong Lim Park to turn into a sea of pink. Pink Dot SG returns to the park for its 16th edition with the theme of “No One Left Behind”. The event this year shines the spotlight on the ways that the LGBTQ+ community continues to face marginalisation and discrimination despite the historic repeal of Section 377A. Expect powerful rally speeches, community tents, and rousing performances by Singapura Drag Royalty (featuring more than 40 drag queens and kings), Kiki HQ, Jean Seizure, RENE, Marian Carmel, and more. And the most iconic aspect of Pink Dot – the illuminated night formation at 7.30pm.

In the lead-up to Pink Dot, watch three videos highlighting queer experiences in Singapore. In the first, four pairs of strangers share what it was like to grow up as LGBTQ+ individuals in Singapore. Keep your eyes on Pink Dot's socials for two more videos which will dive into love and relationship, and ageing and dreams for the future.
