【马驰事件】新网民渲泄对中移的不满与排斥(图) (E/C)

  2012-05-12凌晨4时08分,在维多利亚街和梧槽路交界处发生一起中国籍富二代马驰(31岁,图)驾驶价值180万新元限量版法拉利跑车撞击德士事件,造成3死2伤。3名死者分别是52岁德士司机秦德福、日本籍女乘客伊藤繁美和他本人。车祸原因是因为马驰酒驾和闯红灯(且有超速嫌疑),车上载着持学生准证在新读书晚上在夜店非法工作的红牌小姐。被撞死的德士司机是唯一的养家人,遗下妻子(家庭主妇)和三名儿女,长女21岁,刚从南洋理工学院毕业,两个儿子分别是17和19岁。马驰有一个3岁女儿,现时其妻(原四川电视台主持人)正怀有身孕。

  限量版法拉利599 GTO是该公司最快的公路型跑车,从静止到时速100公里只需3.35秒,时速顶限335公里。

  Expatriate, sparked outrage in Singapore, where anti-immigrant sentiment is on the rise. Websites were swamped with postings attacking Chinese and other foreigners in the city-state after it was reported that a 52-year-old local cabbie had died of his injuries following Saturday's pre-dawn accident.
  Police gave no other details but local media said the Ferrari driver was a financial adviser from Sichuan who was applying for permanent residency and already living in a Singapore penthouse with his family.
  Disgruntled locals seized on the incident as another reason to attack the government's immigration policies and the presence of more than a million foreign workers and professionals in the crowded city-state.
  Foreigners are blamed for pushing up living costs, straining public transport and stealing jobs, with mainland Chinese bearing the brunt of attacks.
  The Straits Times newspaper said the Ferrari was a limited-edition model that Ma had bought for Sg$1.8 million ($1.43 million) for his 30th birthday last year.
  Pictures from a video of the accident published in local newspapers showed Ma's car apparently ramming the taxi after he allegedly ran a red light following a night out with friends.
  Hundreds of indignant comments were posted online.
  "I hate to drag nationality into this tragedy but the stupidity of a single (Chinese) possibly drunkard driver has caused such catastrophic damage to so many people," Tan Wee Meng posted on Facebook.
  Singapore's population grew from 4.4 million in 2006 to 5.2 million in 2011, largely the result of a higher intake of immigrants as well as guest workers and professionals.
  The accident came two months after a Malaysian cleaner at Singapore's Changi Airport was killed after he was hit by a taxi hijacked by a Chinese guest worker.
  The government's more open immigration policy was a hot issue during the general elections in May 2011 in which the ruling People's Action Party garnered an all-time low of 60 percent of the vote.
