PM Lee posts Facebook photo of foreign worker; gets flooded with compassionate comments

Yesterday morning, Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong posted a Facebook photo of an unnamed foreign worker on his cellphone. Complete with a reflection that urged the public to ‘spare a thought for the foreign workers who have left their families behind to work in a distant land’, the post quickly went viral. 

And people started adding on to the atmosphere of compassion and kindness with appreciative comments of their own.

Heart-warming stuff.
