These pics remind me of how great life is in Singapore, for a child, for a teen, for a working adult or a retiree. I had a walk into Tampines 1 which was just newly opened and was fascinated at how developed this little plot of land besides the MRT could go on to sprout 3 malls. The newly opened Manpuku (did I get that right?) was like a mache with a japanese twist.
But just looking at how hard these kids have to work and how little they can only bring home has made me realise how fortunate we are, even in this crisis. I mean, looking at how media hungry we are, whereby we'll STOMP every little mistakes made by others for the ridicule of all. A case of too much time on our hands? A case of stroking our ego? Of course, I don;t deny that this post could be an attention seeking one as well. But I feel times, we should be brought back to our feet again, and stop being the bitches that we are, especially after seeing how tough these kids are being work, with no light at the end of the tunnel. Do you think you can last a lifetime going like that?
Enough of the blabber.
Check these out. For your sake.
