@hazard.one.actual on Instagram: "LKY on the importance of family and community to Asians. Asian societies, including Singapore, are collectivist, placing value on familial and community bonds more than individualism. This cultural focus puts the group's welfare first, promoting strong social connections and support among members. In contrast, Western societies typically highlight individual freedom and personal success, with community relationships and interests taking a backseat. The importance of community and family in Asian societies creates a strong support system promoting social stability and resilience. However, this can sometimes create challenges in balancing personal wishes with group expectations. Is your culture collectivist or individualist? Which do you prefer to live in? #singapore #lky #asia #china #individualism #collectivism #culture #singaporeculture #family #culturalvalues #collectivist #socialharmony"
