Fair to whom?

It's a catastrophically flawed assumption that racism only happens in one direction.

An entrepot of the British Empire with as much diversity as New York City if not more.

I'm not sure Singapore is anywhere near as diverse as NYC:

NYC (2020): 30.9% White (non-Hispanic) 28.7% Hispanic or Latino 20.2% Black or African American (non-Hispanic) 15.6% Asian 0.2% Native American (non-Hispanic)

Singapore: 75.9% Chinese 15.1% Malay 7.4% Indian
