Today, I write to share with you one of the most meaningful 3 dimensional exhibits I was introduced to by its founder's son. To illustrate the significant meaning of it, observe the photo above and share with us your initial message from it.
According to him, the above photo well reflect Dr Sun Yat-Sen's situation where he was prosecuted and about to thrown into prison by the autocratic government. The man inside the prison cell is Dr. Sun. What he could possibly do at that time is to write letter to seek help from outside. A helping hand inside the cell portrays someone has tried to rescue him from being put behind the bar. His letter somehow landed into his former teacher's hand, who then decided to help him. He then distributed his letter to all major newspapers and media.
His government at that time was embarrassed with their uncivilised action, did not have any other choice, but to release him from prison. Fortunately for Dr Sun that the external pressure exerted was sufficiently strong that his government have to do so. His quick response in sending letters out saved him from being prison under its draconian law of retention without trial. Sad to say that this type of law is still being practised till today.
Here, it well illustrates the point that his strong determination helped him to overcome all barriers he had to go through. His love and care for bringing a better tomorrow for his people was also the main contributors to his success of bringing democracy to his nation.
This simple exhibit has so much to tell. In this connection, you may want to add some of your view points to enhance its already rich contents. That's the reason why I told you much earlier that I really enjoy my new discovery of jewels there.
It is also form a very sound and solid educational programme for the generation to come. This will assist them to cultivate good values in life and reject an autocratic government, like Manchu. If we are not careful, third world war may not be avoidable. The world cannot afford to have this war. As we all are well aware that the damages of the past two world wars were too great and its impacts are still in existence despite they have gone for more than 50 years.
As such, I must say that I had really utilized my time to the maximum during my stay in Penang with both new and usual activities I used to carry out there. I must admit that my recent trip was a great success. I shall at least maintain my record if not broken it.
So, take your time to read more of these articles, which are in the pipe line where I will blog what have taken place during my short trip there, from time to time, so as not only keep you entertained, but be beneficial to you, that’s the way we reward our blog readers.
Thanks and look forward to hearing and seeing you,
