Globalisation

WE see it nothing more than just an fatal accident. But they see it in other ways. Some say it's the result of PAP's fault on immigration policy. Some said it's anti-foreign sentiment. Some say it's revenge for continuous press for PRC. Some are taking chance to point at the nation they come from. To me, it's Singapore's way of Globalization. Why? Let me explain.

Last Saturday's pre-dawn fatal car accident comprising two cars and one motorcycle. There are 5 persons involved from which 3 died and 2 survivors. The offender and his passenger are from PRC. The victims are Singaporean, Japanese and Malaysian. Look at participating vehicles. Ferrari is from Italy while Hyundai Taxi is from South-Korea. Most likely from Japan for motorbike. What else? One accident, too many nations involved. If you wanna add, may be on-lookers are from various countries. Comments are flying on Yahoo Singapore website's post. Some are moderating while some offend racist. Some take opportunity to highlight the risk of foreign worker being here. The different in this case is that offender who drive Ferrari is from PRC while local is cabby. It say another dimension of foreign worker story we used to hear. Anyway, it has been happened due to irresponsible and stupid person and we couldn't turn it over. Lets pray for the peaceful next life for all victims of this fatal accident because arguing and pointing each other won't work.

May all human being be rated as a person regardless of where they come from.
