Little India

The photograph of a vegetable stall in Little India attracts a lot of foreign workers. It is during night time as the lights are switched on. The crowd doing their marketing at this time is because it is their day off from work. It is very likely a Sunday. The Indian workers are dressed casually mostly in T-shirts. Some are looking at the vegetables while others are walking around the market. There are variety of vegetables that are placed neatly for easy to choose. The vegetables look very fresh. The stall is near the roadside. In the market near my house, there are similar scenes of foreign workers doing their marketing and walking around the shops on Sunday.

Bus Hijacking in Philippines

The recent tourist bus being hijacked by a sacked police officer from the Philippines police force was unfortunate and sad. The death of eight Hong Kong tourists can be prevented if the Philippines police are well trained. They are inefficient and not professional in their rescue attempt. There should be an expert counsellor and negotiator to talk to the kidnapper. The police also drag too long to rescue the hostages. They should know that the hostages lives are precious too. When the police stormed the bus, there is no proper coordination. When they shoot the kidnapper, they should also take consideration that their bullets can also hit the hostages and kill them.
