Despite its small size, Singapore plays a crucial role in the world economy. First, we hold one of the best airports and seaports internationally. This allows Singapore to deal with a whole host of traders. Secondly, with our multi-racial and multi-cultural society, we are all well-equipped at handling businesses from all over the world because of our deep understanding and respect for different cultures and traditions. With advanced technology and our efficient networks, we have the potential to become forerunners in research and development fields. This is beneficial to preserving the natural wildlife in Singapore, showcasing our natural history, at the same time, balancing development in the business and tourist districts.
UNEARTHED FACT: I went to China for a community project and our group stayed on a farm for almost a week and lived a simple life. We even went to work in the peanut farms. Staying in the sparsely decorated homes without the luxuries we’re commonly used to, was a vastly different experience. At the tender age of 17, I’d say that was pretty unusual yet highly rewarding experience to me.
I SAY: Success and failure are inextricably linked. One can never appreciate the sweetness of success without experiencing the heartache of failure first. Once you fall, the only other way is up.
