Definition of Courtesy

Courtesy, or rather the lack of it, has recently been a hot topic of debate in Singapore. Straight Times took to the streets to ask the heartlanders what exactly is the meaning of courtesy to them.

Reporter : Excuse me ma'am, can you ....
Woman with child : Sorry, no one to buy, no money, already got insurance...

Reporter : Excuse me sir, what is definition of courtesy?
Man : Curtesy ah? Is the loot word Curt ah? Curt is rude light? Means Rudesy lah. Why ah? Singapore got win rudesy contest is it?
Reporter : Yes Sir, we're 3rd in a poll of 30 countries but KL beat us to the top spot.
Man : KNNBCCB!

Reporter : Excuse me sir, what does courtesy mean to you?
Man : Curdesy? Curd..hmm.... can eat right?

Straight Times,
Mat Love
