the grey in black and white.

be it a political situation, ERP, COE or celebrity gossip, news goes viral on the internet faster than the speed of lightning. the haze was no different. facebook's newsfeed was so constantly filled with PSI updates one did not even need to log onto the official NEA website to check the readings.

we tend to talk big yet act small. or maybe it's just our intrinsic kiasu-ism that makes us talk big to look important but at the same time kiasi-ism prevents us from walking the talk and we take little steps to actualize the visions.

so as i chanced upon the constant updates, criticisms, sarcasm, warnings and what-nots, this slowly formed up in jungle of my mind (meant to be taken with a pinch of salt with no offence intended) and well, you'd probably only get it if you're truly singaporean:
we, the citizens of Singapore, pledge ourselves as one opinionated people, regardless of haze, FTs or inflations, to build a socially connected society based on SGAG, facebook and twitter so as to combat haziness, absurdity and ignorance in our nation.

don't get me wrong, while there's a tinge of whatever-you-may-speculate-the-tone-to-be, i fully acknowledge that it's more or less a natural sentiment. right or wrong, it's neither for me to judge nor comment, lest i be another one of those painters painting the image of this little red dot on social media.

this is by far as political i'd ever go.
