What contributions have i make to singapore till date?

I have always believe in the idealogy of opposite should also hold true. Our parents taken great care of us when we were small and ideally, we would do the same when they are old. On the macro scale, Singapore has provided us with one of the best and prestigious education system, a safe and sound environment and corruption-free government owned state. These are all the effort and hard sweat our country has put in for her citizens and the opposite undoubtly must hold true too, which is we should do our part to contribute to Singapore.

We, humans are selfish who only think of personal gains and do not realize we are so myopic that caused us to be trapped in a small dimension. We always think studying is only for our own good and what we do not perceive is how our knowledge and skills learn can improve our homeland's economy. By gaining essential knowledge and skills, one can helps in country's literacy rate and increasing our talent pools therefore, attracting forgein investments to tap on our workforce and technological knowhow. By securing a slot in Singapore's university, i would contribute back to singapore by joining the workforce and not be a social parasite, thereby improving economically.

As how Singapore has provided a secure and safe environment for her citizens, i am doing my part in the national defense by serving national service. Full time national serviceman are required to learn the necessary military skills and technologies. I have learned the 7 core values and it has been incalculated in me to be fully devoted to Singapore and never take the peace living for granted. I also participated actively whenever Civil defence day was conducted back in school days and understanding the hardships of not having any electricity, thus appreciative to our dearest motherland.

Environmetal issues have been gaining global's attention and it is also our part to do our job and keep our country clean. I have learn the importance of reduce, reuse and recycle because we need to limit the use to products that are non-biodegradable and most importantly, Singapore does not have enough land for dumping ground. To cite a few example, reuse bathe water to flower, reduce the dependence on air-conditioner and recycle drink cans as piggy banks. Perhaps if we all do our part, Singapore can be a cleaner and greener place.

We should be grateful and further contribute to Singapore being a perfect state to live in. Afterall, what we are doing now is ultimately not for our own good, but for our further descendant. If we want them to be able to born in a resplendent place like Singapore, we should start acting now.
