Why?
That was the one big question on the mind of many Singaporeans
who came to pay their last respect to a tree they only knew not long
ago,
but cut down so tragically... so soon. It was beyond our comprehension.
Amongst the earliest to express their concern were the chinese-speaking
community. They spoke up readily for a tree that could not speak
through the
chinese TV media. The tree had also been comprehensively reported
in a
centrespread feature by the local chinese newspaper Zaobao when it
was
first discovered. |
