Racial Harmony!

Check this out. i took this photo during one of my exploration trips. initially i wanted to take photo because of the pigeons. then i realised the whole scene could actually portray some kind of racial harmony. It could be used as a poster for some 'living harmoniously' campaign, or for picture conversation in english oral exams. hahaha.
.................................................................................................................

The picture shows 4 ppl - a middle age indian man, young chinese girl, old chinese man and a malay man. The girl is holding some funny orange object, like a toy, and seem quite interested by it. The old man is pointing to the object and talking to the indian man. the indian man is giving his attention to the 2 of them. All 3 are smiling and enjoying each other's company. The malay man is sleeping, just next to the chinese.

1. the picture portrays inter-racial harmony, cos the major races are there, except ang mohs, who wont stay in these kind of place. There are 2 chinese ppl to symbolise their majority status. Haha.

2. The picture portrays harmony and interaction among the different age groups. Despite the age differences, the ppl can still take interest in a common thing. (heck care the malay)

3. The malay man may seem bochup about interaction cos hes sleeping, but that could alternatively show that the community is so peaceful u could just fall asleep beside all kinds of people.

4. The pigeons show that even the animals live harmoniously with humans!

5. The feeding of pigeons signify a simple life. Cos they have nothing better to do. --> they dont have a good job --> prolly cause of poor education. --> chances are, they dont speak a common language well. Even if they are retired n the girl got no school, if they had a good job, they will have money --> they wont stay in such lousy estates. So... ppl can live harmoniously even though they cant communicate well!

And.. ppl stereotype poor communities as high crime rate, but hey... these simple ppl are harmonious with each other! Lets rejoice in the peace we have in our nation!
