No need to advertise acts of charity


PEOPLE who received help via the White Flag movement (people can hang a white flag/cloth from their houses to ask for urgent help) should thank the vanity of social media postings. I truly believe being able to post your charitable deeds on social media is a major reason why so many people are helping.

I have seen among my own social media circles that my friends are posting about how they helped so and so, and worst of all, people are posting photos of handing over contributions with the needy in full view. I heard of recipients being asked to line up and pose for photos of them receiving the aid.
