What has become of us?


Mob violence: Anger spreads fast and gives us a burst of adrenaline that can spark havoc like the riot at the Seafield temple.

IT was heartbreaking to hear about the death of fireman Muhammad Adib Mohd Kassim. He was an amazing lad who lost his life while serving his country.

The brutal manner in which he was treated by angry and unruly men that eventually led to his death is something we will never ever come to terms with. A promising life snatched away because of toxic venting of an angry mob. Shame on us.
