If you have been watching the news, you would have come to realise that a lot of things have been happening throughout the whole world. A lot of bad things actually. But one that really left the deepest impact on me is the one about *hina's milk product. It is just plain sad..

Initially, I thought it is just going to be any food saga about *hina's dangerous products. However, it turned out now to be more than just that. It has not just affected the *hina population but also many countries throughout the whole world, even Singapore. Due to contamination of their diary product which is not detected earlier, babies start dying due to kidney failure. The most innocent victims ever... My heart ache just thinking about their parents, especially their mothers... Ouch..

Next up, we come to realise that the milk product is more extensive and widespread than we thought. It is in fact used to produce many of the food and snacks which many of us loved, like chocolates and ice-creams. That sort of explains why we can always buy our food stuff cheaper now right? Because their ingredients come from *hina and is cheap. We have seen how the irresponsibility of a few people in a country can affect so many people throughout the world. Is this the result of globalisation? Of rapid industrialisation and fast-paced development? I feel that this is something which all of us can think about but may not be able to come to a conclusion...
