2014 data but I assume 2 year from 2014 Malaysian Jantan won't grew 7cm rigth ...

The average Singaporean male measures 171cm in height, 7cm taller than his regional peers.

Meanwhile the average Singaporean female stands at 160cm, compared with the median height for females in the region of 153cm.

In neighbouring Malaysia, the average male is 165cm tall, while the average female stands at 153cm.

Indonesians are smaller in stature: the average male is 158cm tall, while the average female measures 147cm in height.

It may not seem like a big deal, but height has long been linked to society’s well-being, and serves as an indicator of access to healthcare and a country’s per capita income.

When I was small and reached 170cm I wanted to stop growing because I was slowly exceeding my parents' height

but now I stand at 176cm I wish I hadn't stopped consuming diary products

when they measure singaporeans, i assume the population, not the race, right? which means that would include angmohs who became singaporean?

if that's the case, we need to naturalize all the bangla and indians to boost our statistics! tongue.gif

It just shows that the local people here are shorter than ethnic chinese.

Indonesia = less chinese . Shortest of all

Malaysia , more chinese, taller

Singapore , less locals , tallest.

To compensate for ther insecurity, they keep telling people that chinese have small didi haha.
