Seriously?

Looking at the works of the 'Anonymous', I am truly disgusted. Really, blaming the govt and doing things that's against the law, to attempt to disturb the equilibrium of the society, to stir the negative emotions of the general public, and assuming the name of Justice? My foot.
Deface MOE website? This crossed the line.
If one has had friends in the civil service, namely, the police force and teaching career, you'd have found out the immense pressure these individuals had to withstand, in order to deliver the jobscope that was stipulated.

This reminded me of autobiographies of the numerous IT experts, such as Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, and Mark Zuckerberg.  These are the people whom chose to make full use of their potential, doing good for the society,  and the reason why we have software to use for our school, work and even organizing our personal lives, the reason for the start of the awesome era of the smart phone making the world smaller amd more accessible and the reason why we can make use of the social media to do business marketing, personal marketing and even just to rant about the random things in our lives.

Now, I despise individuals who prefer to hide in the dark, attempt to step on the line to defame any individual or organization, making it seems like they did it for a higher cause, when in actuality, it was to satisfy their own selfish pride, to seems like they are pitting themselves against the evil. If you're so good, do good. Be a philanthropist,  be a volunteer and teach computer to people who wants to be better, be part of the opposition party and speak up for what you feel is right.

Worse is, seeing people around me, applauding the works of these selfish, egotistical people who tried to take law in their own hands. I am disappointed. If they are so cool, for goodness sake, show your own face, own up to the responsibilities,  not hide behind some stupid white mask, and pretending to be so concerned about these issues, if you dared to.

Now, every society has its fair share of issues, it is up to us as individuals, to accept and move on, to work on the issues and not point fingers to others. I had not been a great history student, however, I do remembered where racial harmony came a long way. A lot of us, our forefathers were immigrants, imagine if they were ostracised, despised and being picked on every steps of their way? Would we have the pink ic and this tiny red dot to call our home?

We, as the moving force of the nation, too pampered, took too many things for granted. To have a lot of world-class reputation, recently, I read that we are one of the safest asian Destination for female travellers, and peacefulness. All these did not came easy,  cherish it.

Gratitude and ampathy are the 2 words kn my mind at this moment,  be thankful for what we have, being able to walk home at night from the train stations knowing that you are pretty much safe. I, sometimes, am guilty of stereotyping too, and not all foreigners are exactly behaving like they have the same culture as us, but hey, if today, you are the one working overseas, and whenever you read a local forum or news, you see someone who's a local badmouthing you or your community, how would you feel? Bad behavior is individual's character, by jumping to conclusion or generalizing, you are not any better either.

光明磊落!
