Some cultures are very gregarious and lively. They like loud music, speak to each other loudly, etc.

Which cultures have you found to be more reserved? Not necessarily cold or rude, just not as loud in public?

    Yeah. The MRT and its passengers aren’t loud. Customers at the hawker markets aren’t loud. The ferry passengers between Singapore and Indonesia aren’t loud. Speaking in generalities, of course, but Singapore just isn’t a loud, boisterous society.

    Singaporeans themselves were friendly enough, given the chance. They’re just not extroverted.
