Lest we forget.

It is difficult not to feel for a place, after its people have treated me so warmly, fed and shepherded me. I really think that for the ongoing protests in Iran, there is more than just stability in the middle east and constant oil prices at stake. What is also on the line are the hopes and future of the young people of Iran. If there is no change this time round, the young of Iran, including this little girl queuing up for bread, will have to wait another generation to experience what we in Singapore take for granted. Another generation lost is one too many. Everyone deserves a better tomorrow. Especially the youth.
