Dear Friends,
It
is not something I do for satisfying my ego; Giving my time and effort and
dedication (in
writing this blog), can also make a difference. I do not have to
give
away $$$$ to make a difference.
Thank
You for reading the above forum-writer-of-the-week and my blog posts.
Warmest
Rgds,
Kam
Wah
Writer Of The Week
Who: Wong Kam Wah, 53, bus driver.
My family: Married to a mother tongue teacher, 51, with two sons, aged 26 and 23.
My home: A five-room flat
My passions: Sports and reading up on financial news.
I first started writing to the Forum page...: About 15 years ago.
What I write about: I normally write about things that promote moral virtues and fairness in our dealings with others, as well as on issues such as patriotism.
Why I write: There are many social issues faced by the community which have yet to be adequately addressed.
I am writing out of compassion and for the benefit of my fellow countrymen in the hopes that when these issues are brought to light, our lives overall might improve.
I write because this is the least I can do in contributing towards the betterment of Singaporean society.
I read the Forum page because...: It enables me to keep up with the current state of affairs in Singapore.
I believe there are always three views to reflect on for any issue - your view, my view and the correct view.
My wish for Singapore:
I embrace the ethos of Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong for an "inclusive society".
However, I hope more can be done for those whose working hours are "beyond" normal.
For example, the working hours for those in the public transport industry are indeed beyond normal.
Congratulations, Kam Wah!
