While listening to the radio on the way to work this morning, the topic of the morning was whether elitism exists in Singapore. When I heard that, I just went "DUH???!!!??". Please, elitism exists in every society, it's just a matter of degree and ways in which it manifests itself.
The discussion was sparked off by a letter that appeared in the forum pages of the TODAY newspaper today. It's titled "A spectre of elitism".
Would write more on this, but then work beckons.

I bet most of Singapore can't even believe that debutante balls even exist in Singapore..
