Singaporeans Express Deep Faith In Banks Despite Repeated System Failures
SINGAPORE - In a touching display of loyalty, Singaporeans affirmed their unshakable trust in local banks this week, even after yet another massive system outage caused payments to fail nationwide.
"We stand behind our banks no matter how many times they let us down," said patriotic citizen Tan Ah Seng. "If anything, these repeated failures just make me trust them more, because they always eventually fix the problem after many hours."
Singaporeans reiterated their confidence that more thorough investigations, reviews, and slaps on the wrist would prevent future problems. "I have full faith that after this outage, there will certainly not be another one next month or next year," Tan said optimistically.
Many citizens praised the "no blame culture" where no one takes responsibility. "It's good that we don't play the blame game here. Better to just sack some low-level contractor and move on," said office worker Mary Lee.
When asked if other countries would tolerate repeated nation-wide banking failures, Singaporeans scoffed at the absurdity of holding leaders accountable. "That would be ridiculous. It's not like the CEO gets paid millions of dollars to ensure this doesn't happen," said retiree Lim Chwee Koh.
Singaporeans likewise dismissed the idea of keeping cash or opening bank accounts with other institutions as paranoid overkill. "It's too tedious to diversify. I'd rather put all my eggs in one basket and then act surprised when it fails," said student Darryl Soh.
In the uniquely tolerant local culture, frequent bank crashes are simply accepted as a fact of life, like unreliable train service or 4G leaders. As Tan philosophically puts it, "If our banking system repeatedly goes down despite years of notice, that's just the Singapore way!"
