    THEMES:

    “CHANGE”
    Change is constant and so are the people around the place.
    - Since the beginning of time, children have always enjoyed the little things in
    life. But as years passed, children have found new ways of spending their
    free time exploring new things out of their curiosity that changes the future
    of the youth. The story shows the difference between the “old” (Taximan’s
    generation) and “new” (Lay Choo’s generation). It describes how the young
    people of Singapore have grown to be bold and reckless.

    “PROSTITUTION”
    Marginalized families are the major contributor of prostitution.

    People who had nothing hangs on the tip of the knife.

    - The majority of minors who become involved in prostitution are runaway or


    thrown away children from abusive or dysfunctional homes. They are lured
    into prostitution because they think that it’s the easiest way to earn money.
    It’s their only chance to survive and somehow find that secure loving
    environment that they lacked at home. Teenagers of today’s generation sell
    themselves in exchange for expensive clothes and other luxuries. In short,
    they engage in this trade not just out of necessity but also for things they
    want and desire.

    “PARENTS LOVE”
    A parent’s love is the only love that is truly selfless, unconditional, and forgiving.
    - The Taximan’s unconditional love shows in the story as he works really hard
    just to support her daughter. He also shows how proud he is of his daughter.
    The taximan ended up getting disappointed with his daughter but he never
    gave up on being a parent. It is one of the big challenges for most parents to
    manage their children’s behavior but with the case of the taximan, He made
    the right decision to correct and discipline her daughter in the proper degree
    in order for her to wake up and straighten her mind. Our parents want us to
    learn from our mistakes in life that’s why they try their best to discipline us.
    We are imperfect and we are still very fragile but our parents will always
    forgive and accept us. A parent’s love is the only love that is truly selfless,
    unconditional, and forgiving. So as children, we need to appreciate them
    because we never know what sacrifices they went through just to give us a
    decent life.
