    There are big lessons to be learnt by people who are Hawkers in Singapore and in Asia. I love that entrepreneur spirit. The hard work and overcoming adversary in life to survive. Having independence. Struggling to repay loans and supporting their families. There are alot of values to be learnt from that.

    When I was in SG for a month, those hawker places were one of my favorites! Saves me a lot of money and there are lots of food choices. So good. And they serve a lot for what I pay.

    Hawkers have so much love for their craft, and are such natural entrepreneurs. Grit/perseverance to keep going in the face of difficulties and the energy to make their vision a reality. Got to respect that.

    I used to stay at one of the units in that row of shophouses on Syed Alwi Road during my childhood days. I missed those days where my grandaunt would open her "stall" at the base of the stairs of the shophouse that we stayed in. Every early morning, it will always be so bustling with people where patrons go around their normal marketing routine and the stallholders preparing their stock to sell. My Grandaunt would prepare her dishes at our home kitchen upstairs, e.g. Char Bee Hoon, Char Mee, Char Kway Teow, etc. This is one part of my childhood that I wouldn't mind reliving again and again. I believe this is one experience that can't be found anywhere else. From time to time when I reminiscence those times, it just brings up a wonderful feeling; anyone who has been through similar living conditions would understand.
    When I grew older, only then I realized that I have unknowingly lived through the actual "Kampong Spirit/Togetherness" during my childhood, an experience that you can never get now in current Singapore. I miss my Grandaunt so much; especially her cooking.

But when it comes to common sense, how can they hate their daughter when all of them are female as well, and those for male, why would u marry female if u hate them. Just marry male lol
