Discrimination

This video is just sad. I feel so strongly against racism after watching this.


So what if the minorities are the minority in the country. That's just a number and nothing else. They shouldn't be viewed as inferior human beings. They are just born in another skin colour and they speak a different language. But they are still as precious a life, and they are still as worthy as any one else. It's sad that racial hierarchy exist, and is deeply ingrained in our minds. However, it's existence doesn't mean our acceptance right?!

Although most of them may hold low-skilled jobs, they still have a skill that many don't have. Then aren't they skilled in a way? And they are helping our country. So why alienate them when they did nothing wrong (in fact, they are doing things that benefit you, say your houses/shopping malls etc.)?

Fortunately racism is not a problem in Singapore. And I'm real grateful for that! :)

I shall treat my maid, no, my domestic helper with more patience.
