#3992015-01-05 10:00I've always loved Taiwan a lot, even before I visit there. When I 1st travel there in 2011, I love it even more, especially Taipei Jiu Fen. The houses have graveyards behind(in fact not jus Jiufen, other parts of Taiwan also have that), I asked a owner, he explained that 1 of their culture (but I think this shd be 1 of the culture of all Chinese in e world) is to 'stay' with their love ones even aft they passed on n also to pay respect to them. That warmed my heart n made me wanna migrate there. Most Singaporeans are too cold, n dun like to feel troublesome, I still remember how sad it was when my uncles pushed e responsibility away to keep my grandma's ancestral tablet aft she died, in 1993....Yest i watched e news abt residents n 'future residents' of Sengkang Fernvale opposed to the building of columbarium here, some even threatened to withdraw fr buying their future houses that they already paid deposit....tat really make me feel ashame, shame of being a Singaporean n also being a resident in Fernvale! Why would they wanna do that?? Why r they so inconsiderate n lack of (chinese)cultural values? Imagine how convenient it's for those families who r staying in Northeast part of Sg to have their love one's ashes RIP there?? Worst still, I have friend that also opposed that.....jus something to share, some of us actually do not know, there r already many temples or religious bulidings in many of our estates have columbarium in them. U might have already living beside a columbarium for yrs n u do not even realise, so pls dun make a big issue out of none. Let's live in harmony, regardless of races, languages, religions n dead or alive, please. P.s: this is purely my personal opinion n belief, those who read this n dun agree pls ignore n dun get offended. I'm posting this becoz I think it can help us to slow down n think, abt what we do or done, is it really right or wrong?? |
