Taking a cue from Teng Kiat, i try to make a short story or to the best of my ability.

Sometimes we take things for granted like the freedom of mobility.

Heritage slipping by HakWee, on Flickr

This stark image of a Chinese opera tent sitting amid us is a stark reminder that something from our distant past may soon sprout wings and fly into our history books.

Maybe it is easier to talk about lost heritage than to try to preserve them.

I am not sure if someone with higher authority is doing something in the background to help these troupes or are their hands tied because of trying to maintain secularism. Or maybe the troupes don't need intervention at all. It is just in my mind when i see this image.:bsmilie:
While there are opera troupes performing on stage, it's flavor is different. It is not street opera.
It is like hanging a work of art meant for a historical site in another location. Something is lost.

It is indeed easier to talk about these things.
