1 in 4 young people in Singapore afraid to show kindness in public

According to the Singapore Kindness Movement - or SKM - Graciousness Survey 2019, one in four young people refrain themselves from displaying acts of kindness in public due to fear of embarrassment or being mocked. In contrast, older people are less concerned over what others think about them, but are more concerned over their ability to help and not being aware of others’ need for help. Done annually, the Graciousness Survey monitors and gathers the acts and views of kindness and graciousness here in Singapore. Dr William Wan, General Secretary of Singapore Kindness Movement weighs in.
