It is a serious improvement for the law to reflect the culture. The US has a schizophrenic attitude towards many vices -- the Puritans write the laws, but the sinners write the TV shows. Singapore is much more united, so you're not guaranteed to feel out of place.
A scriptwriter in LA feels like he's living in someone else's country when his friend gets busted, or when he can't marry his partner -- a gas station owner in Nebraska feels similarly alienated whenever he watches a sitcom or a big-budget comedy. This doesn't have to be a problem (though it probably doesn't scale past a city-state).
