Different views from people about how they feel about racial harmony
View 1: Lame, It is a waste of time, boring but it is very important. Because if we do not respect each other, conflicts and racial discrimination will occur.

What will happen if Rcial harmony does not exist?
What will happen if Rcial harmony does not exist?
- A lot of conflicts will happen between the people of different races.
- Firstly, there will be social segregation. Singaporeans will be living and existing separately in terms of work and play. It is not impossible for people not having to meet someone who is of
different race. As a result, there will be a lot of misunderstandings and lack of understanding between people of different races. - Secondly, the economy may be declining. The economy may be affected due to the conflicts which causes discouragement for other countries to invest in our country. This may cause a big number of unemployment for the people.
- There would also be unfair voting rights. People will be voting people of the same race or same committee. This can cause the people to be unhappy and as a result, there will be riots.
Here are some pictures of racial riots:
