A to Z Kiasu Philosophy.

Salam,

I found this from this LINK.
It's an amusing take on the subject of "Kiasu". Don't know what is Kiasu?
Read this explanation from WIKIPEDIA.

Kiasu (traditional Chinese: 驚輸; Pe̍h-ōe-jī: kiaⁿ-su) is a Hokkien (a Chinese spoken variant) word that literally means 'fear of losing' (Mandarin Chinese: 怕输). However its actual usage would imply a meaning more approaching that of "dog in a manger", and yet not quite (Landon Mossburg). Examples of kiasu behaviour includes accumulating too much food on one's plate during a buffet lunch in case there is no more later, or joining a queue many days in advance just to ensure that one successfully gets hold of the limited free tickets to events, promotions and shows such as Singapore's annual National Day Parade.
This word is so widely used by Singaporeans and Malaysians that it is incorporated into their English vocabulary (in the form of Singlish and Manglish). It is often used in describing the social attitudes of people, especially about South East Asian society and its values. Its widespread use is often because these attitudes are common—to not lose out in a highly competitive society (e.g. by above-cited examples), or to the extent of parents imposing heavy study labour on their children in their wish to make them at the very top of all other students. Growing up with this attitude, these students often become ambitious businesspeople^{[citation needed]}, with the desire to be on top in wealth and prestige regardless of whether the most prestigious careers are aligned with their true capabilities.

Here is the A-Z Kiasu Philosophy:

Always must win   Never mind what they   think Borrow but never return   Outdo everyone you know Cheap is good Pay only when necessary Don't trust anyone Quit while you are ahead Everything also must grab! Rushing and pushing wins the race Free! Free! Free! Sample are always welcome Grab first talk later Take but don't give Help yourself to everything Unless it's free forget it I first, I want, I everything Vow to be number one Jump queue Winner takes it ALL! ALL! ALL! Keep coming back for more Yell if necessary to get what you want Look for discount Zebras are kiasu because they want to Must not lose face be both black and white at the same time
