Benjamin “Mr Miyagi” Lee | Talk of the Town: Why Must Singaporeans Queue For EVERYTHING?

View descriptionShare
 

Spot a long queue in Singapore and suddenly everyone wants in. Doesn’t matter if it’s bubble tea, watches, sneakers or free gifts somehow, the line itself becomes part of the attraction. So why are Singaporeans so obsessed with queueing? Is it kiasuism, FOMO, clever marketing… or have queues quietly become part of our national identity?

Benjamin “Mr Miyagi” Lee, Playwright, Comedy Writer & Associate Director at APRW, joins the show to unpack Singapore’s uniquely recognisable queue culture and why seeing a crowd somehow makes us want to join it too.
