Chinese privilege in Singapore

Recently, Adeline Koh wrote an article about Chinese privilege in Singapore. 
Yes, the truth is out there in the open and Singaporean Chinese people have to acknowledge the fact that their mindset is like that of the white privileged people and they also need to have more empathy for those who are more marginalized than they are. It certainly takes honesty, courage and awareness for a Singaporean Chinese such as Adeline Koh to acknowledge this fact herself and to highlight the issue of Chinese privilege to her counterparts for their awareness and attention too. Indeed, the first step to racial healing and racial equity is usually awareness and acknowledgement of what is happening in real life.
