1. Why would each varna approve/disapprove of the caste system?

The Brahmins, Kshatriyas, Vaishyas and Shudras would most likely approve of the caste system as it either benefits them or inflicts no harm upon them. However, the outcastes will most likely disapprove of the caste system because it makes them looked down upon by others of the caste.


2. What makes it fair/unfair?

The caste system is fair because it has fixed laws and the people have fixed occupations, therefore giving the country stability. It is also unfair because people of the lower caste who may have better talents will be unable to cultivate it and rise up in society.


3. Would it be possible to apply the caste system in Singapore?

It is impossible to apply the caste system in Singapore as it is a multi-cultural country, unlike India, where Hinduism in the main religion. By applying the caste system to Singapore, which is infused with Hinduism, will raise religious disputes.
It is possible to apply the caste system to Singapore as it is a fixed hierarchy where the occupations are passed down from father to son. Therefore, we do not need to take examinations to ‘upgrade’ ourselves.
