There was a racial riot between Muslim Uighur and Han Chinese in the Chinese city of Urumqi at the month of July.156 people were killed in the clashes on Sunday and over 1000 were injured.In the article Mr Shi Guanzheng ,a retired teacher from Shanghai, blamed the government for failing to quickly quell protests by Han Chinese.
I feel that if the government does not act fast, other countries will take advantage and try to conquer the land because the area is rich in natural resources. I also feel that these riots should not happen because there are many innocent people who wanted peace and does not want violence. Violence should solve this problem because violence started the riots. The government should not weight the Uighur and Chinese but should treat them equally because everyone should have rights for themselves. I will feel scared because there will be a lot of people who will protest or go on a rampage which will lead to casualties and dead bodies.

'Should Singlish be the official language in Singapore?'
Singlish should not be the official language in Singapore. Singapore is known because of its 'Singlish' and because of this other country had other opinion on Singapore and thinks that the country could not speak perfect or much English. Singlish is usually spoken by the older generation or the younger generation which usually use Chinese or Malay often. These generations usually add some of their languages like Malay or Chinese because they seldom use English when talking to their family members or their friends. Singlish should not be the official language in Singapore because the younger generation will be affected if someone try to talk to them in Singlish. The younger generation will follow as they will think that is cool or much easier to use Singlish than English. When the younger generation starts using Singlish they will have problem with their English and will either fail or get low marks for the subject. The future will also be affect as foreigners will not understand what they trying to say and affect the economy in Singapore. Therefore, Singlish should not be the official language in Singapore.

"Are Singaporeans gracious and socially responsible? Discuss."
Only some of the Singaporean are gracious and responsible citizen and are doing their part on keeping the environment clean and so on. Due to the H1N1 virus that had been causing problems around the world, some Singaporean took advice from the Health Board Promotion like when coughing and sneezing in public they cover their mouth with a tissue or a handkerchief. In fact, I still see people coughing without covering their mouth in crowded place and throwing their used tissues to the floor. Usually the old uncles will not be responsible when they were resting in the void deck or the coffee shops. They will either spit or throw their cigarettes to floor. I see some Singaporean taking responsibility for example advising those who had littered to dispose their rubbish properly and giving sits to people who are in need of the sit in public bus or the Mass Rapid Transport (MRT). Therefore, I will say that only some Singaporean are gracious and socially responsible citizen.

Concern and Controvesies over the 2008 summer olympics
1.One controversy that happened during Beijing Olympics which i feel strongly about is Allegation of underage gymnasts. I have chosen this because Yang yun who is a artistic gymnast won two bronze medals. She honestly admitted herself on state-run television that she was 14 when she competed. In this, she was very honest and also told the truth at the state-run television.
2. I will accept the offer as it would make more profit to Singapore as more tourist who will come to Singapore to support their friend, family members or the competitors from their country. These tourist will need to find hotels for them to stay so most of the hotels in Singapore should have been booked before the event. The tourist will also spent much for souvenirs or gifts to bring back home.

My Goals for the next two years
'MY GOALS FOR THE NEXT TWO YEARS'
My goals for the next two years for my education is that i want to get a B3 for my Mother Tongue and not to retake it so that I could concentrate on my other subjects. I also wan to get 18 and below points for my 'O' levels and go into a good polytechnic and into a good course or go into Junior College if I am able to. This is goals is hard to accomplish unless I put my mind to it by concentrating on my studies and focus on my weak subjects. It is better to face difficulties at first so that we could enjoy it in the future.
My goals for the next two years for personal matters is to face all my fears and to be more honest in the future. I would also like to find more friends in the future. I think that friends are important as they can help with your problems and relax our minds from stress. I also want to boost up my stamina and courage. By boosting up my stamina and courage I can get myself ready for my ambition which is to become an athlete or a NFL player. It can also help me for my NAFA test or any competition using stamina and speed.
