kops21 SG Did HDB kill the Kampung Spirit? Or we kill those ourself? Those were the old days where everyone is like a big family Door is unlocked, and no need worry about theft . Sad to say, we have lost all those. For kops21, moving from Kampung to HDB start to kill the spirit From leaving the door unlocked, we have to make sure it is securely locked. We start to distrust each others. Just went to my friend wedding in JB. Ended up sitting with a table full of my friends Primary school friends. Those folks know each other for 30years+ starting from Primary 1!!! 2 teachers also come for the wedding . Some folks travel from KL to JB just for the occasion It is very heart warming to see the kampong spirits among them relating stories back 30 years .it is amazing .lots of laughter . Is Malaysian better united than us? Does the kampong factor come into place? I will trade HDB for Kampung.
monkeybusiness SG hmm...never stayed in a kampung b4 or see it b4... my parents always told me tat it was fun staying in kampong even though the conditions are not very clean as compared to now and they always tell me bout their stories wen dey were living in kampong wen dey were still kids
kops21 SG Agree about the cleaniness...the first thing when i moved into HDB is glad that toilet nightmares are in the past. Imagine when u go toilet pai sai, u have to be look around to make sure no snake or funny animals lurking around u when u doing the business.
