There are too many of them out there. They do not know that help exist. Even they do they cannot fully comprehen them.
Some believe there are no free lunches in the world and reject help as they think the people might cheat them.
Sometimes when my bf pass them money, I will ask him to make sure they really want your charity. Some are fiercely independent and will take charity as an insult. -
$2 enough ma?
-
I am more intrigued by the " Buddha Tooth Relic " sign behind her ..
-
n she took ur $$$?
many many yrs ago, when me was stil a cute lil ger.
me saw dis ah pek sittin at the basement to scotts isetan.
he stacked many coins in front of him.
me placed a one dollar coin dwn as well too.
n he threw it away angrily!
wtf, he oso nvr put sign say chiobus nt welcm. -
anyway, did she say u can take her pic?
n worse, to post it up here?
if me, sure dulan one. -
please hello kitty, dont crap here,
My heart dropped when i saw the pic, emotions just swell up, i dunno, maybe i have this softspot for old people. they, having worked for the past 50 or 60 years of their entire lives, should now be enjoying their retirement, but sadly, there is still a minority in this country who need to support themselves
anyways, people like her, who make a living by collecting cardboard boxes, treats every single cent like it's a treasure, if u see people like her, just go up to her and help ease her burden.
Ps: those who sit at orchard road collecting $ for a living are mostly fakes and the newpaper has once published that they earn quite a decent sum from it.
these people on the other hand, truely need our help ( just look at the umbrella -- a broken one.) -
i wasn't.
sum ppl view dignity beri strongly.
wat's the issue here since she's willing & able to support herself by workin.
y muz we make a story out of her?
if me were her, me wudnt like it a bit.
ppl like her r aplenty out there. n there r many others who r worse off.
so many times me hear ppl say oh so kelian so kelian.
bt r they even doin anytin else to help?
no. -
She's on the TV before. If I am not wrong, the reason she gave on why she's picking up cardboard is because she want to kill time.
Oh ya I finally remembered. It's qian xian zui zong.. I think it's the series on millionaire Garang Guni. -

What matters most is the result. Which, obviously, is nothing worth mentioning.
