One way to encourage Singaporeans to be open to accepting foreigners and immigrants into our society is to hold a social experiment of Singaporeans being the foreigners for a day and posting it through social medias to reach more them. (POINT) For instance , by holding the social experiment in different kind of jobs that foreigners do such as being a construction worker or cleaners. 
How Singaporean say mean comments. For example "wah they damn smelly leh" to the foreigners and how they feel about those mean comments. To really understand how they feel, we should be in their "shoes" and work our heart out and and sweat under the hot sun and then stand in the MRT and having people to say that I am smelly. (EVIDENCE)Having this experiment and posting it in social medias , this will make Singaporeans empathize them and not having a negative mindset towards the foreigners.

For example, Singaporeans can hold concerts for the foreigners to show off their talents after they work, and want to relax, that can be held fortnightly, so that Singaporeans can come together to know more about the foreigners. Having a neighbourhood cook-off can also help foreigners show off their cooking skills, and allow participants to try out cuisines from other cultures and get to know more about them, and bond. By doing so, Singaporeans will get to know more about the foreigner's routines, and get to know them better so that they will be more open and positive towards the foreigners, and thus, creating good relationships between foreigners and locals.  Hence, this helps encourage Singaporeans to be open to accepting foreigners and immigrants in Singapore ]]> 2018-08-28 03:26:03 UTC https://padlet.com/Humwendy/2sl0x0vgah7l/wish/275756198 Group 1 ( Caitlyn, Jasmin, Alham, Jolene ) https://padlet.com/Humwendy/2sl0x0vgah7l/wish/275756383 One way to encourage singaporeans to be open to accepting foreigners and immigrants into our society is to create publicity campaigns conducted by the government that focuses on the advantages and appreciation of foreign workers and immigrants (point).

One way The government can encourage singaporean to be open to accepting foreigners and immigrants into our society is to organise an event where foreigners and singaporeans get to interact with one another to have a deeper understanding of a foreigner worker’s background and hence singaporeans can be more tolerant, understanding and compassionate towards foreigners. The community club can organise an event there during Labour Day and invite the foreigners and immigrants together with the singaporean resident around the neighbourhood then all of them will interact and eat food which the singaporeans and immigrants prepare.By doing so, the government will be able to encourage singaporeans to be more open and accept foreigners and immigrants into our society.]]> 2018-08-28 03:27:39 UTC https://padlet.com/Humwendy/2sl0x0vgah7l/wish/275756442 Amelia’s group https://padlet.com/Humwendy/2sl0x0vgah7l/wish/275756498 1.
