It is the system here nutured by the Govt - didak apa. We become bystanders, devoid of emotion, and minding our own business, even the Singapore police looks the other way as in the case of the attack by a Saudi Arabian diplomat on a Singaporean man. it has become no case. So people here just follow the waw set.

"Leviathan" mindset of the system. Even if you are positive and try to help, you ended up "stuck" with the Authorities or system ... so people simply just don't want to waste time and avoid it while taking care of himself...Leave it for the system; and within the system leave it for the people at the top ... But people generally also do not appreciates if helped ... and this also facilitates people at the top asking for ridiculous salaries for doing work by "helping" from the top.

Our political system caused apathy ? There must be CHANGE to bring about a cultural change too.

People. Please relax.

This is a once in 50 years type of incident. Like the recent Orchard Road floods.

Assuming you live to be 100 years old, you will only encounter such incidence twice in your life.

Please don't over-react.
Singapore is ok.
Singaporeans are ok.
You are ok.
I am ok.
We are all ok.
Don't worry. Be happy!
