Reflection for 7 November!
10:26 AM


Today, OCIP Yunnan and Cambodia went to the Asian Civilisations Museum. It was definitely an eye-opener for me. The rich history of all the different cultures, and the sheer diversification of the artifacts really blew my mind. At first, we were asked to identify an artifact that was linked to the word we chose earlier in the day, and for me, the word was 'trust'. Were were also prompted to ask three questions about the artifact. Through this, I actually found that I was able to pay more attention to the artifacts than I would normally do if I came alone to the museum. I was actually able to appreciate the artifacts mroe deeply and better understand the rich culture behind those artifacts. Next, we went on a tour on Singapore's history and the Islam faith. The tour on Singapore's history taught me a lot about the struggles Singapore faced before becoming a succesful nation. The tour on Islam was also definitely an eye-opener too and it allowed me to be able to accept others' religions too, as the people in Yunnan might also of a different faith as me.
