Provide senior citizens concessions for the Singapore Flyer
|
|
| THE Singapore Flyer, Singapore's latest attraction, took off with great reviews and is expected to draw some 2.5 million people in its first year of operation.
It is probably going to be a trip in which most Singaporeans will try to make it once in their lifetime, so to speak. My hope is that all senior citizens be given this chance as well and should be charged as low as possible for this ride. I also hope that there will be some big corporations kind enough to consider sponsoring people who may not have the chance for this new Singapore experience. Big companies tend to remember and invite all the cream of society, dignitaries, celebrities, etc. How about extending this gesture to haves-not as well? They are the ones who probably have not flown in an aeroplane in their lifetime and who will definitely be impressed, if given such opportunity. I hope my simple letter will strike a chord with some companies to come forward to do this great humble and very fulfilling deed to the people who may not have the knowledge that there is this new great Singapore experience.
