As kids, we learnt that we should share with others in need.
But when supplies are short and people are not able to get enough for themselves, can we, or should we, still share?
On Feb 2, Singapore girl group By2 said on Weibo that they met up with local songbird Stefanie Sun in Singapore where the trio “swept up” medical supplies to be donated to China. When the news was shared on Facebook, netizens really let it rip, with some feeling we should “help our own people first”.
One netizen said her mother has a kidney disease and requires peritoneal dialysis. Alcohol wipes and face masks are some medical items the patient needs at home for her treatment. However, the family has not been able to stock up on those items because of “people who panic buy and panic stock” as well as those who “bulk buy to do charity”.
Singaporean DJ Jade Rasif also commented that there were “less selfish ways to do publicity stunts”.
