One More Chance 三个好人

jus watch dis show wif my mum.. (wat cannot watch movie wif mum??) dis show is v touching and meaningful.. finally i am proud to sae tat this fabulous movie is from SINGAPORE.. MADE IN SINGAPORE, quality guranteed.. its tat great and i could feel tears going into my eyes in some scenes..

Its abt 3 guys whu were released from prision trying to get thier 2nd chance in society. However being TYPICAL STEREOTYPING singaporeans, they were being discriminated even by thier own closed one at first.. although i am ashamed to say dis but many times in e movie, i tot that these 3 guys will repeat thier offence once again when they were tempted, desperate and even becos in order to get reunited wif his family.. this onli shows tat i am oso part of the typcial singaporeans.. hehe

one part which especially hit me quite hard and i find it very meaningful was when mark lee said dis.. "法官判我监狱十年, 你们社会判我死刑" in english "i was given 10 yrs imprisionment, but the society has given me a death sentence"

which get me to wonder.. how many of us can accept an ex-convict.. wat if ur colleague is one, wat will u do??

i believe the ans wun be exactly ideal, definitely not wat the yellow ribbon project, which the govt is strongly campaigning for, is all abt.. therefore from here onwards i strongly support the yellow ribbon project.. we must drop tat stereotyping and give these ppl a chance.. no doubt there is always a chance they might repeat thier offence, but by denying them a chance, arent u pushing them to commit the offence again?? if singaporeans can be so kind and understanding, as shown in e tsunami incident where volunteers flocked in and donations wun stop, i believe we can oso show e same amt of understanding to our ex-convicts.. they shld be given a chance too..
