So many public acts of violence these days and it is very concerning. Even in Singapore, we need to be more vigilant and cautious in public and not take our safety for granted.
Even Clementi not safe😢

Stressed, depressed?

What's wrong with Sg recently?
Average a car burn every 3 days. A violent case every week.
You hear of cases of people stabbing other people. But to hear a case of someone stabbing themselves.
That's new.
Times are bad and many suffering from mental stress so we need to be more compassionate and always lend a helping hand and stop all the judgement
