MM '08 Fiven: Day 5
Welcome to our blog. Please enjoy
Tuesday, March 25, 2008
Well, today ends it all. It was fun, we've learnt much and best of all, we've grown up. We would like to thank our friends, our teachers, our year-heads, our tour manager for all the guidance and support that they have given us. It's a meaningful trip and we're sad to leave. We had good times and bad times together as a batch, and we learn together as a batch. We've changed and so has everything else. Yet while some don't accept change, some realize one important fact, just like the fact we realized ourself throught this trip...
"Change leads to progress"

We live in a changing world. Change and the absence of change are important features of both scientific and non-scientific processes. Change can occur in simple and predictable ways or more complicated and unpredictable ways.”
Change. What does this word mean to us? At the beginning of our Malaysian Montage trip, we knew very little about change. However, change is ever so apparent in our lives and this journey has provided us with the experience and the insights to view change in a different light and with different perspectives.
We had an experienced guide who explained to us many changes that happened in Malaysia. An example of that is the WWII when the Japanese came and invaded Malaysia. Now, we would classify this as a chaotic change because although it does not happen regularly, that event could be predicted. Malaysia definitely could not control the change that was happening although they tried their best but instead they were controlled by the changes that were happening so rapidly and we feel that with this point, it is better to control change than to be controlled by change. Now let us imagine a situation where Malaysia could control the changes that were happening, obviously, the change that Malaysia would be going through would be good ones. There wouldn’t be bloodshed or unnecessary loss of lives. If only they could control change… Now for our experiences in MM ‘08
This Malaysian Montage trip has taught us much about the nature of change. Enjoy our blog as we present to you our journeys through these blog entries.
