As I watched "Schindler's List" for the second time, I sensed and grasped a different point of view as compare with my first time of watching (which was about a year ago). The story still refreshing and aspiring. There was an one-arm old man who proudly professed he was an essential worker. Towards the end of the movie, the worth of the workers (or the people) had become the theme. The main actor (Oskar Schindler) tried to save all his workers from the holocaust. As I reflect with our current market force, have we really appreaciate the "worker(s)". Have we take for granted all the contributions? Be it direct or non-direct. How do you treat and relate with your colleague, superior and sub-ordinate? A moment to ponder and excogitate.....
I haven't finished recounting my journey in Sweden and Japan; I returned from Taiwan just two weeks ago. Here's a brief account of my recent visit there (although I still have unfinished tale from last year trip to Taiwan). My first stop was Kaoshiung. Spent a day and a half in the town, then I travelled to Tainan for a weekend symposium. I ended my journey in Taipei for another short hike. The weather in Kaohsiung was quite hot, comparatively. It's not my favorite weather for traveling. Perhaps I arrived there too early; had I come a few days later, the temperature would have been cooler. Since day time was hot, it would be wise to visit Pier 2 area during evening or night. Not many people / tourists in this town. It looked quiet. The next day, I took a ferry to Cijin. The ride was short, about 5 minutes. Cijin Island is a fisherman's village. On the opposite side of the island, there's a beach. It was serene but scorching, to the extent that I couldn't walk m
