Festive Season

Happy New Year everyone,

Christmas and New year has passed, Chinese New year is around the corner and everyone's in a jolly good mood because of the festivities. Clubs and popular venues are preparing themselves for a grand celebration which occurs once a year, BUT is it necessary?

Every day/date is unique. Only comes once a year... with the exception of Feb 29... So why don't we celebrate Feb 29 as this is the most unique day!!! To me, everyday there is a reason to celebrate. What is there to celebrate you might ask? Well for one thing, you can celebrate that you passed the day without any mishaps. As of late, there has been so many freak accidents, be it human error or nature... You might not live to see another day (touch wood).

Everyone will flock to these 'well known' area and celebrate with everyone.. thus making this a major income for some people and company's. Imagine how nice if all these fund can be put to a better use instead of the few moments of glory on fireworks which I believe cost a bomb. By converting this cost, a lot of good can be done if its channeled to other needy organization be it internally or externally.

Our government is reducing subsidy's on most of the products given the reason that with the funds saved, it can be channeled to upgrade the nation. Everybit goes a long way into building a better future for us or our next generation. I'm sure that in the near future, nobody will look back and say wow, did you hear about the greatest firework show held in XXXX year? All these title can be broken/overtaken if there's funds for it. The greater the fund is, the better/more spectacular the performance is... Don't you agree?

But if it was channeled to building a better future, then this will be engraved as part of our history and will be remembered for many many years to come. No matter what happen in the future, everyone can see/feel the minor changes/sacrifices made today as what we felt from the sacrifices made by those fighting the war to get our independence.
