“宁可把资源用在更迫切事项” 网民发起联署呼吁无需派国庆礼包

今年因受冠状病毒19疫情的影响,今年国庆庆典也与以往与众不同,尽管不开放民众到现场欢庆,但仍秉持着与民同心,为每户家庭派发国庆礼包,普天同庆。但也有民众呼吁不需要派发礼包,甚至发起请愿书联署,截至目前已获得逾1万人支持。

该联署由网民Kaushik Ilango带头发起。他解释,尽管主办单位想要借此团结民众,为正处于黑暗时期的新加坡公民带来些许欢乐,但比起将派发礼包,网民更希望将这些资源善用在其他资源上。

“2020年是我国记忆中最黑暗的一年,所有人间接或直接受到了冠病19 的影响。此时此刻,我明白分发新加坡人喜爱的礼包必定能够为此带来欢乐。然而,我相信如果将预估140万个礼包用在支持其他资源会更好。”

网民认为,与其将其用在礼包上,不如将它善用在援助其他人,而且礼包内并非每一项都能够长期使用。以往就有出现不少国庆礼包遭丢弃的案件。

经济不景、失业率上升

他表示,如今在经济不景气的笼罩下,失业率也不断上升,因此将这些资源善用到其他地方,反而能够给真正需要帮助的人更多支持。

网民坦言,他自愿将礼包捐出,同时也不想见到更多礼包被白白丢弃,这反而会动用更多人力去整理。

“新加坡可以趁此机会,树立“零废物”的榜样,展现给全世界。”

他也了解,部分人士对于国庆礼包情有独钟,因此他也不想就此剥夺他们的权利,反而是希望主办单位能够设立一个系统,让不想接受礼包的人能够做出自己的选择。

“如果您不希望收到礼包的,可以签署请愿书,并将之传出去让更多人看见。加油。”

截至目前,已有2万3千886人签署。
