So we are happy what Singapore has won a medel after 48 long years. Should we rejoice (and snub behind backs) or embrace the fact that we are all chinese people.
I personally have no qualms about our paddlers from China hitting the spot for Singapore. I feel a sense of pride and becoming patrioty for our girls. Even if our dear swimmer didn't even bring home the bronzed piece, I still take my hat off her.
How can we, Singaporeans be a gracious society, when we can't even handle this minute thing? We are very far from being one in my honest opinion. We tend to let things flourish on their own, and viciously critique at the outcome when we have no idea what is going on. However, we should use this as a learning curve to better our attitude towards things in life (in Singapore and in general).
All, in all, thank you China for giving us a fabulous airtime and actual performance. Thank you SG sportmen and Thank you Mr. Muscle-Silver-Man Tan for your Pilot Medal 48 years ago, MORE TO COME... MORE TO COME!!!
