Title: Hopelessly Outdated
Review: Bought this book on the strength of other titles in the Culture Shock series. Was disappointed with its boilerplate descriptions of the process of culture shock and culture-by-culture descriptions of major holidays. As other reviewers have mentioned, there is little discussion of the realities of modern Singapore nor the aspects of which will most likely cause cultural misgivings (ki'asu culture, pursuit othe 5Cs, difficulties in making local friends, government policies towards the media, arts and alternative lifestlyes, etc.). Furthermore, few practitical strategies for dealing with life in Singapore are introduced (building a network of friends, taking advantage of extensive opportunities for personal and professional development, developing a love of sports, using Singapore as a hub for exploring the region, etc.)
