A decade since the 9/11 attack in New York, USA. It was an event that changed the world and how terrorism had been such a direct hit to humanity.
A decade and the world isn't an easier place to live in.
So much had happen and yet nothing seem to have change. The world is facing an uphill task to combat terrorism and extremists. There is nothing more critical than the situation the world is facing now, what with the financial crisis and battle against terror groups.
I remembered I was in Primary 4 when the news first broke out. Like so many others, I watched in utmost shock at the captured scenes where the hijacked planes crashed into the twin towers and the subsequent collapses. It seemed like a bad dream then.
10 years on, I am Year 1 in University. The heartbreak of those who lost their love ones are still keen in their hearts and minds.
We should all take this special day to commemorate and remember those who lost their lives and sacrificed. It was a day of memorial.
