RACIAL HARMONY
To eradicate racism totally is difficult if not impossible because you are dealing with people’s emotions and mindsets, which have been mounded through years of misconceptions. However, we must try to lessen racist attitudes through education and information. These will help people understand more about other races, religion, cultures and beliefs.
In Singapore, the people commemorate Racial Harmony Day on every 21 July. On this day in 1964, Singapore saw racial riots. It was the worst racial riot ever happened in Singapore. The incident taught us a very valuable lesson, ie. to tolerate each other. This can only be achieved only by having better understanding among the people in Singapore. Now, even though there are different types of races living here, they manage to lived in peace and harmony. These will ensure the continued peace and prosperity that we have enjoyed for many years
