Today i took mrt and saw the many sad faces of commuters.

i would say that i did not see a single happy face in a fully filled cabin.  Wonderful SG.

on top that, i tapped my ezylink card and found that the mrt fare has gone up 11% 

well done 👏 

good luck Singapore Good luck

https://devinit.org/resources/inequality-global-trends/

The world is vastly unequal, extreme wealth coexists with extreme poverty. The poorest 50% of the global population share just 8% of total income. At the same time, the richest 10% of the global population earn over 50% of total income.

Just means if we're unhappy, the rest are really screwed..... A poor comparison. It's like asking what is the worst sh!t to be up to your neck in, soft or hard?

I only eat rice using chopstick when the rice is served in a bowl.

Kind of weird if the rice is on a plate and use chopstick for that.

Same. Cos we bring the bowl to our mouth.

Use plate and chopstick , mean u need to literally use chopstick grab the rice bit by bit to eat.

As opposite. If rice is served in a bowl. U give me spoon, I will feel very awkward to eat.
