Laughter... the best medication

Basic Photography Class 11/B01

With the presence of Su Yixi (a super positive and ever smiling). Every class is filled with laughter and positive energy. She is the "Kai Xin Guo" of the class. By the time we completed our third lesson almost the entire class got infected by the laughing bug. Laughter brings friendship and laughter is certainly the best medication for stress - the number one 'mental hazard' of us city dwellers.

Namely high speed railway (Taiwan Highspeed Railway THSR), normal railway (Taiwan Railway Administration TRA), train (Kaoshiung Rapid Transit Corporation – KRTC, Taipei Rapid Transit Corporation - TRTC), cab and if you are brave enough, self drive. Although Taiwan is left hand drive and international driving license is needed, the time saved from travelling is still worthwhile.

 

At Kenting, the most southern part of Taiwan, we travelled to the mountains and remote locations made possible only by car. Afterwhich, we travelled by train to Meishan located near Alishan, for its sour plums, mountains and waterfall. Repairs are still ongoing, years after 88 typhoon (Typhoon Morakot).

 

We drove to Ji Ji, which was the earthquake epic centre before making our way to Sun Moon Lake. The ferry tickets are half price if purchased the day before and we ferried around the 3 sites for walkabout and sightseeing. Following which, we continued ea [...]

Calendar Project & Competition

Base on the theme "inclusively" the club members gathered their creativity to produce a table top calender.

"Inclusively"

 

In tune with our labor movement vision for a better and more meaningful life where working people of all collars, all ages, and all nationalities can live, work and play together in Singapore.

The project concluded on a high note with an official launch event. Many members stayed behind after the launch to get their very own autographed copy of the limited editing table top calendar.   (Likely to be a collectors item soon ;)

About Young NTUC

Young NTUC is the youth wing of the National Trades Union Congress. Catering to working people below 35 years old, Young NTUC currently has about 150,000 members. Working people today know what they want and how to help themselves. So does that mean that unions have outlived our usefulness? Young NTUC does not think so. Over the years, we have found relevance for our members to identify with, and no, none of these involve mercantile benefits. Our activists join us because they want to make a difference. Making a difference be they to themselves, their families, society or the world, we give them the platform. Creating Team Young NTUC fulfills one of these dreams. Through this platform, our members can now help make the world a better place to live in, one programme at a time. For more information, please visit www.youngntuc.org.sg
