3J: Leonard Tay (19)

1. It is relevant to be global-minded as we will be able to gain more
exposure from other places not only from Singapore. For example when
the sports CCAs travel to other country to play teams from that
country, we will be able to gain much more experience and come back to
Singapore to perform better in our local tournaments.

2. When we mix around with the foreigners in our school, we learn more
about their culture and language in their country. This way we also
can get new ways and ideas to do things as we can learn from them.

3. I think it is best when we go overseas such as the Secondary 2 and
3 camp where we are able to go to Malaysia and the villages there to
learn more about how they live and their cultures. When we have
foreigners in our school we also can learn many things about them such
as their culture and language.

4. I agree with this comment as we have to respect people from all
around the world regardless of their race or religion. As Singapore is
a multi-racial society, it is important that we be sensitive to other
people's race or religion so as to prevent conflicts among different
races. At the same time, through global-mindedness, we can learn new
ways of doing things and improve from old methods to be more efficient
and productive.
