Yesterday, Ms Ang , our English teacher just showed us a video 'Singapore Heartware'. This video is mainly about how Singaporeans and PM Lee( Prime minister, Mr Lee Hisan Long) felt about Singaporeans going abroad to study and hence decided to remain there. In my opinion, I think that after all, if one was born in Singapore , grew up here with all the family and friends ,then what for do one wanted to stay abroad. Staying abroad may not be the same as Singapore. People from other countries may not accept you however contributions you made to their society but in Singapore, whatever contributions you made will be recognized. Compared other countries to us. Other countries may be better than Singapore in some ways but this is our home where we were born and belongs. And can one find food that Singapore had in other countries. Many whom I knew missed the food back here where they are abroad. Now, many foreigners are coming here to study and works. They even felt that Singapore had made them feel comfortable and could called this place home. But more Singaporeans are going abroad and planning to stay there. In this case, all the talents will be abroad and who will be left in Singapore. I think that if one day, I had a chance to study abroad, after completing my studies, I will definitely return to Singapore because I had all my friends and family here. Though small, I must say that Singapore was quite a safe place where security was tight. Here we had all the people from different parts of the world; hence we are a multi –racial country which accept foreigners. Even in school, kids and teenagers had recognized foreigners as their friends. But in other countries, does the same thing happen? So I do hope that in the near future, fellow Singaporeans who are studying abroad will always remember where their roots are and will return here to Singapore and contribute to the society.
