I was shocked when I heard about the
latest furor at KB Mall. I girl unsuccessfully attempted suicide which, in her
opinion, will settle all her problems. I don't know how or why she ended up on
the hedge, but her act got me thinking - is this what our youths have been
reduced to?
In a nation, youths should be the one who we can rely upon. They should be the one who have the strong will, the courage and the hunger to make our nation stronger in the future. However, our youths have been hit with dangerous diseases. Drugs, immorality, indiscipline and many other weakening ailments have made our youths something of a weakness in our quest to become budding nation. Money, which should be used to build nation, is used to cure these illnesses instead. Think about what our nation should have been if we have not been troubled with these maladies? We should have conquered the world, as what a wise man once said:
Give me ten youths and I will conquer the world!
