hi it's us again!
this post is an addition to the previous one, because we discovered something really saddening :-(
let's all take a moment to emphathise with the poor in singapore ☹☹☹☹
although we don't usually see beggars asking for money or starving children on the streets of Singapore like other countries, there are still a lot of people who are living under the poverty line.
In this article, Mr Ang has to provide for the 6/7 mouths in his family with the mere income of a taxi driver's.
Although he has 5 children and two of them are of working age, he still has to provide for them as they are visually impaired.
We feel that Mr Ang is very persevering and hardworking, providing for his family despite the many obstacles and problems he has to face in life, which includes taking care of his visually impaired children.
Yet, he did not give up on life, which is really impressive!!!
We feel that we should learn from his determination to support his family through his own ability. Although he is experiencing such circumstances, he did not choose to beg for money or just stay at home and grumble on about the unfortunate things in his life.
Instead, he chose to continue on with life, strive to take care of his family members and struggle to earning a living.
It is thankful that Mr Ang's case is being recognised now, as we believe that since there would be more kind hearted souls aware of his condition and lend him and his family a helping hand.
We are sure that there are many more families out there who are still suffering in silence, in need of our attention and help.
Having once came across with the thought that money can solve everything, we do not think that just money will solve the problems of poverty in Singapore.
We have to be empathetic with the poor people in Singapore as they did not choose to be poor, but were just born with an unlucky fate.
so what do you think about the poor in singapore now? comment away!
we'll be back again next week!
