Practise loving kindness, not panic buying


YOU will note that when there is a surge in the number of Covid-19 cases, people start panic buying. This has happened in several cities around the world. We have seen people stocking up on canned food, instant noodles, beverages, etc. We have also seen people fighting over toilet paper in supermarkets.

Now this trend has reached our shores. And it has caused me great concern. Just imagine if we have stocked up our house with all these essential items. What will happen to those people who are unable to get them?
