text: I'm a minority that speaks mandarin, but when there's other minorities in the group I always make sure that they get to sing their songs of choice. English usually, but I've had some nice Malay songs sung too. It's not just about "letting them sing", it's also being supportive when they are singing. I mean - if a Chinese person in a group of White dudes insisted on singing a Mandarin song, and while he/she is singing, the white people all just sulk in the corner and look bored - who on earth wants to put up with that sort of vibes at KTV.
