I believe if one were to immigrate to another country, it is not unfair to sing or know the national anthem of the country where you intend to stay.

Further singing or respecting other country national anthem is not unfair for the person singing would be only doing something positive for the country he intends to stay, infact I think it is good way of getting acquainted to a particular country.

it is only fair that you learn their national anthem. if you have chosen to adopt the new country and want to become its citizen, you may as well learn to appreciate the country and stand for what it stands for. and learning their national anthem is a good beginning.

Yaar you want to have a citizenship to the country but will not take that adopted country as your own . yeh to koi baat nahi banti .

In the U.S to get naturalisation you need to take oath , pass the American history paper . Only then can you become a Naturalised citizen .

Not learning your adopted countries history , and National Anthem is a shame !!

I am on a visa , and i have only an Indian passport .....for me this rule doesn't apply . But when one becomes a citizen , gets to vote and can effect the political decisions then thats least you owe your adopted Country along with your allegiance.

if you want to enjoy the perks of being a british then i think you should at least know the national anthem of that country. is it too much to ask?

it is totally fair.

I think it is fair. If one is ready to adopt a new country, enjoy it's perks, given the rights as one of it's own, it's only fair that one knows as much as possible about the adopted country.
