Vietnam trip as per normal afterall! The Vietnam Trip is as per normal afterall...we were given 3 choices, it was democratic. #1 Go as per normal, but NUS will bear no responsibility whatsoever. It will not be recognized as an official trip endorsed by the school, neither will we be covered under the NUS medical insurance or given CCA points. #2 Delay the trip by 1 week, but less people will be able to go if that happens. Also, the school holidays will begin and our program will have to change. #3 Cancel the trip. Most of the team members are going for #1....I also voting for #1. Afterall, much effort have been put in and if it's all going to waste then it's a mega pity. My main concern that is still holding me back (i haven't email them to confirm my final vote, though if I vote, it would most probably be #1) is definitely personal safety amidst this H1N1 thing...but I'm more assured as today I see some emails from members raising health and safety issues...the fact that the whole team is considering this very seriously and not simply cos 'we have spent so much time on it so we should go' or 'i need a holiday and so I don't care about whatever is happening around the world'. Ignorance is not bliss in this case...I know I'm not an expert when it comes to fighting the influenza, thus I'm more at peace when I see 1 or 2 emails seemingly coming from people that has some medical knowledge...prolly from the science faculty? Hahaha... For one, the village is near a hospital. So far, the influenza is mainly concentrated in Europe and America. None of the Asean countries have been hit by it yet. That makes some sense, huh? But of course, we must not be complacent with regard to the influenza. Precautions must be taken. But more than anything else, I hope that me and the team will receive God's protection...we are not spending 1 week, but 2 whole weeks there...for me, it will be 15 days. So i hope that nothing will go awry. Actually to be honest, I'm a bit paranoid and apprehensive. It's hard not to in this kind of time leh. Hoping for the best! Will be giving my answer tonight...
