Suggestion to school to review their policy to adopt to recent climate changes.Going to the extent of asking the government to protect people from inclement weather really takes the cake. I was very much tempted to reply to the author that perhaps we ought to ensure that the SAF issue our kids with umbrellas when they enlist, so that they won't get wet during field exercises.
Today I witness outside the primary school:
1. student perform duty in walkway, was caught in rain.
2. students stay in HDB block to wait for rain stop and go to school late.
3. security at school gate leave on dot and those late had to walk to school drive in gate under rain.
4. security not able to react fast enough to open gates when the rain pour suddenly.
5. thunder voice hear from school gate when rain pour suddenly.
I believe the parents need support from the school too and wish to suggests:
1. find out the way to limit the expose to rain when students on duty.
2. take consideration of recent climate changes and have the security stay in duty long enough to takecare those might be late.
3. open the gate when the sky turn dark, so that parents can send their kids to school without get caught in rain.
Freedom and asking for protection from the Nanny State are fundamentally incompatible political arrangements. Unfortunately, many Singaporeans who demand more freedom from the PAP government's control in the same breath will ask that same government to help fix their problems. This is not political maturity - it's more like a bunch of spoilt kids throwing tantrums when things don't go their way.
These are days when preparedness advocates like me feel that we are spitting into a tornado.
