Date: 17 August 2014

Time: 2-6pm

Venue: YuTong's House

Present/ Absent: All present

Reason for absence: NIL

Issues discuss:

-Discuss on what we have learnt based on the sources we found.

1.     What we learnt from the Maria Hertogh Riots (started because of a sensitive religious issue , media added fuel to fire )

2.     What was the cause? ( Disatisfactory in muslims )

3.     What can we learn from this ? ( handle the case maturely and more responsibly in future)
4. Why should we remember the Maria Hertogh Riots today ? (This is a riot which we should remember as it teaches Singaporeans to respect other races . ) 

Plan of Action:

-Yutong to post the 8 sources which we have gathered in the correct format according to the template onto the blog

-NanXi and SinYee  to think and post the full essay onto the blog.
