expressionless? emotionless

re Singaporeans unfeeling?

The city state has been ranked the most emotionless society in the world, according to a Gallup poll.

The U.S. pollster conducted the survey in over 140 countries and asked questions such as: ‘Did you smile laugh a lot yesterday?’, ‘Felt respected or well-rested?’ and ‘Did you experience the following feelings a lot during the day yesterday? (Enjoyment, physical pain, worry, sadness, stress, anger)’.

Only 36 per cent of Singaporeans polled responded affirmatively to the questions – the lowest behind Georgia, Lithuania, and Russia.

On the other end of the spectrum, the Philippines came up tops as the most emotional society ahead of El Salvador and Bahrain.
