Some examples for 'The Suffering of Others'
If u have done the compre AQ on 'Suffering of Others', here are two examples that u can avail urself to when tackling the AQ.
In article 1, see how the aborigines (local native tribes) are 'suffering'...In the past, their children are forcibly taken away from them to be 'adopted' in the families of the Australians -- a policy by the govt in an attempt to integrate them into the mainstream population. These children are dubbed 'the stolen generation'. The Australian govt recently apologised for this.
In article 2, note how foreign workers here 'suffer' as they are put up in poor housing facilities. The most recent case is that of the SMRT which resulted in the bus strike. All these prompted PM Lee's May Day exhortation to employers to take better care of their workers. Note also the strict regulations and their enforcement in Singapore that act as a check and deterrent against errant employers that persist in flouting the law and exploiting the workers.
