Do-gooder writes to Salient

I would like to say that I am absolutely flabbergasted at the way some people just go on repeating what others had said!

Take for example, the 'Hawker's Scene' performed by WMSA a 'long time ago' — alright, everybody admitted that it was wrong and inhumane of WMSA to riducule the Hawkers— (but what's wrong with looking at the lighter side of life?) — How many letters flowed in (to Salient Office) all repeating the same criticisms?

And now, the criticism is on WMSA again for not participating in the ISC. It makes me sick to hear these people 'nag' [defined as 'repeating what had been said']. Why can't you leave her alone? If she does not want to participate, let her be. Why all the fuss?

Instead of wasting your breath in repeating what others bad said before, why don't you spend your effort into giving good suggestions to those who have got problems or queries, like 'Thought' (or Thoughtful?) for his lovely poem, in the last issue of Salient, in answer to 'first year student's' query — 'Come in Awareness'.

I think that it is a good question which every overseas student ought to ask him/herself. 'Can I do something useful while in New Zealand, or am I here solely to get a degree?'

But if I rephrase it like this 'Why am I here on Earth? What can i do for the benefit of mankind while I live, thou' life may be short? — everyone can then ask yourself this question!

It will be nice to hear what you have got to say, in answer to these questions.
