Has our morals died??
This follows the story of one 2 year old from China, who got knocked down by a van and a truck, with both their front and back wheels going over her like a hump on a road.
She eventually died because of internal organ failures.
She died not because she was knocked down not once but twice. She died because no one helped her since the first knock. Passer-by came and gone, all 18 of them. Among these 18 are shop-owner, mother with her young daughter and many more. Yet, one who helped her is just one 54 years old ordinary woman whose job to collect trash..
Why can't the society whoever they are in social level, helped a small young girl to survive?? Take the shop-owner, who as most people can say, someone with a status, didn't even help when he passes her by. His response was that he didn't see her at all. Can you imagine, he was given a second chance to help, but still he didn't help out. He was approached by a passer-by asking if its her girl that is laying on the road.. HEEEELLLLLOOOOO brother... You are given a second chance to make a difference.. You didn't take it and yet you swore that you didn't see the girl and would die in front of the reporters. What the fish...
Moving on..
The mother and her daughter. The duo saw our poor girl plight, yet the mother walked away because her daughter was scared to see the scene and crying. HEEEEEELLLOOOOOO sister.. What if it is your daughter that is lying on the road swimming in her own pool of blood??
Seriously, with 18 passer-by walking past her and none offered to help is indeed a wake-up call to everyone in the world, not just the people from China.
I was having a discussion with some friends regarding this, and my significant other commented that if it does happen in Singapore, Singaporeans would just stand around and look. They would be helping yes, but only by calling or even worse, taking photographs..
Interesting thoughts..
