Contrast..Singapore v/s India

The facts presented below are completely personal and resemlence to any living or dead is intented...so that people may learn and can take this country to a place it deserves....So, I left Singapore yesterday through one of the largest, cleanest and beautiful airports of the world...."Changi Airport". It handles 3 to 4 times more passengers and cargo than IGI, but still its maintenance and security are second to none....inimitable..

Not that they have more people to manage these..but the people there contribute a lot to the Nation's success by helping the government in every venture...

Just taking a samll example, the road crossings...people there don't cross the roads till the crossing light meant for them doesn't turn green...they do not spoil the roads by spitting or throwing any litter neither do they have maculate busses or trains, MRTs as they call. They abide by rules and do not eat or throw anything in their busses or trains to keep then dirtless.

But here, you can't find a bus in which people are not smoking, or litter spattered everywhere.

They have some of the best cars as taxis to run on jelly like smooth roads. Cars like BMWs, Mercedes, Peugeots, Nissans, Toyotas, etc are used as taxis.

They use cycles a lot and this coupled with excessive usage of public transport is a primary reason that the country is green and clean....as against us, the ROYAL INDIANS who consider driving cycles or travelling in buses as demeaning our reputation...which repo are we talking of??? vis a vis our neighbour.....thats bullsh**t.....

Now something very peculiar about the people there. They do a lot of text while travelling. Their speed on their mobiles is unmatched. Very few people are found reading books or newspapers as aginst Americans or Europeans who read a lot while travelling. 

Now, I would not sound like my economics teacher..always cursing India..So a sigh of relief for the Indians vis a vis Singapore people....As far as studies are concerned, they are way behind us....they generally leave schools to find jobs in places like Pizza hut or Mcdonalds.....

But after all this..one thing is sure.....they are happy going, helpful and have managed to lift their country to a position which seems unmatchable by any standards like ours

Singapore Safari

So, I am half manager now....though I know nothing about managing things.....there was still time before my internship and so I decided to pay a short visit to my brother in Singapore....Its really nice to meet family members after a long time.....and so is the time to introduce my niece...Dhruvi or Jiya as we call her at home.....She's just 2 and is really sweeeeeeet....

After meeting her, I have found that if we really look at life, there is something very interesting going on........She is just 2 years old and is able to express her quite clearly....she can't speak lengthy sentences as we can do but still,...she just uses one word or a noun -- names or verbs -- but just one word and you can know what she wants to say.....but we, the so called adults, who have the ability to say whatever we want, sometimes find it very difficult to express ourselves......over the years we forget how to express in a simplistic manner and try to make everything soooo perplexing.....this 2 year old kid has made me understand this guileless thing of life....

                                                 

Coming back to Singapore, yesterday I went to see Raffles place and saw "Merlion"...wowww what a place to be......all the bigwigs - HSBC, Fullerton Hotel, May Bank, Bank of China, etc....we clicked a lots of photos over there and enjoyed a lot. While crossing Fullerton Hotel, we found it quite ravishing, so take a snap, we decided to enter the hotel from the roadside gate....A waiter stopped by and quite gullibly asked whether he can help us and with the same innocence I replied, we just wanted to take a snap. Ironically, he was very joyous to hear that, and he manifested us with places inside the hotel where we can take snaps.....quite friendly huhh....

One more thing before i end up this first episode of Singapore Safari, the traffic system is absolutely brilliant with MRT system and  apart from the fact that the city is immaculate and spotless.
