Are the efforts to combat racism enough?
In my opinion, I think, globally, the efforts to combat racism is relatively sufficient, but still lacking a little. We all know a lot has been undertaken to simmer, shrink the Ku Klux Klan in 1800s, in the United States; albeit some still in hiding. A lot of effort and cooperation was required to shrink the very prejudicial KKK that of which ferocity reigned in the last few decades. Shrinking the Ku Klux Klan , is too large a scale to compare and conclude the efforts of combating racism. Most Americans then,as time gradually passed, got accustomed to the blacks, the ruling prejudice seemed to fade year by year. You could say it was a natural procession, but it could also be their own will power into yearning for peace, and less discrimination. Willpower , self-discipline are one's psychological weapons which fought off racism and prejudice then, and now.
How do you think racism can be dealt in Singapore?
The government could ensure that the Community Centres here, could bond the different races together. The government can continue to build more heritage centres of their races for the other races to understand, comprehend and admire. Cultural education should then be more widely spread to the children and t he generations to come. Public awareness also plays a huge role. Hence the government should set up posters , or advertisements to warn the citizens, therefore imply the severity of racism. The government should aggravate the punishment for racism and prejudicial treatment, so as to inflict fear and to curb and deal with any racism. But still, prevention of racism is better than curing or correcting it.
