I wanted to click on the “Like” button (like in Facebook) if there was one!

I have never felt that great sense of pride to be a Singaporean, and I have entertained thoughts that suggest that Singapore is lacking or is not good enough after studying overseas. But I would like to see that day, of which you have painted out, come to pass…
