What a horror it is to find that a Magnitude 9.0 earthquake followed by a tsunami hit Japan two weeks ago.
As i have been given a lecture about how to help people in need in the future, I felt that there is no better time that NOW.
I asked my parents to donate all my "lai see money" from Chinese New Year to help the quake relief and to my surprise they said that they had donated it already to Japan - funny really as this was news to me. Upset that I had no prior knowledge of this, I dug deeper. Turns out They further added that the money was donated to Japan prior to the earthquake (they took my money and spent it on holiday)...
How can this be? I thought the money was dedicated to my education fund but instead it went to their holiday fund.
With this fact at hand, I made them go to the cashpoint straight away, to take out money and this time for a real cause.
