Even as a "cool" young adult and when I was a teenager, in fact my whole life, I have always respected loved cherished and bend over backwards so far back for my grandmother. Doesn't matter that I'm the least loved grandchild, didn't matter that I was the only grandchild without a home and the only one whose parents divorced, I never let those difficulties and bullying affect the way I treated my grandma. She would always nag at me the most, say bad stuff about me in front of me even though I was the nicest of her grandchildren, I think that's because my grandfather passed away when he was very young and when my mom divorced and left me in my grandma's care, I cried and my tears made her feel her own loneliness about my grandfather. I never had a father and very little of my mother for the first ten years of my life. But even with all this, when my grandma always picked on me, made me always give her a back massage, I would always say yes grandma! And smile my brightest smile. This is because deep down inside, my grandma was the only one who was there for me when i was sick as a child. Didn't matter that I was dirt poor as a child, I had my grandma and even though we didn't communicate that great with the language barrier I would always rush, smile, bending over backwards for anything she wished. Because in those years of my sadness, she gave me my only respite and was my only family. I have never ever ever even looked angrily or even frown not even the slightest bit in all those years, sadly I feel I'm getting on in years and not able to do much more. In looking at that retrospectively, even then I feel I have failed in my duties. I wonder how this guy would feel when he grows older? The grass isn't always greener on the other side, and memories you cherish might never ever return again-
15 May 2024. I just saw this and I couldn't believe that Singtel has such great stories to share that touches the hearts of many people. Keep up the good work Singtel. Giving me good memories of my grandpa...
thanks for the video, it is comforting watching my young daughter who grew up in Switzerland, eagerly look forward to return to Singapore every summer to spend time with gong gong(grandfather) , enjoy Hainanese chicken rice at the hawker centre, even though she still asks for Pizza Hut and Subway at times, which drives me, the hawker food craving mom, absolutely nuts
People today will never no..wat the things That people go through around them..thinking that everything is ok...and thinking that life is good when the people right on the other side......are going through the exact same thing every day...but that's life people I hope we can all get through the hard times together..in life
I just saw CNY 2020 ads. Now I just watched National day 2019 ads. One similarity is the younger generation's kids always raised in overseas. Is it common for Singaporeans?
this so called mature kid is saying that asian countries are lame?, say that to my rear end kiddo, asian countries are the best and diverse. and btw this video makes me wanna talk to my dad even though im not close to him that much.
What the fuck... gue org indo juga, tapi org seperti lu buat gua pikir org indo sombong dan showoff. Kalo itu bendera mereka then ok. Lihat singapore, hanya 30 tahun menjadi dunia ke1 dari dunia ke3 lu aja yang goblok. To all non indonesians reading the indonesian comments, most people from the country side are very small minded.
@@davianlomboan2397 lagian bnyk bendera yg mirip bendera indo kyk bendera monaco, polandia, greenland. trus apa harus dibilang kalo mereka ikut2an bendera kita? ato kita yg ikut2an bendera mereka?:( tolong deh jgn trllu fanatik thd indo ya. apapun yg fanatik itu ga sehat

Make a time for visiting it worth them nothing at least the people still around.
It seems that most youngsters
Cherish the time you still have with the elderly, rather than regret, there's no turning back. It makes me tears when in this situation.
When I was that age both my grandpa and my pa had passed away ... I wished I were as lucky as him to still have both.
People today will never no..wat the things

Why he has no Australian accent
He lived in sg when he was young i think cos his grandpa said that he used to drag him to the playground everytime he wanted to skip kindergarten

Kids nowadays are so ungrateful.
sick and tired of seeing the same rendition of the "ungrateful youngster with the very loyal Singaporean" act each year.
