Remember this picture and the story behind it? This is kindness in its simplest form. =D
Since March 2001, the National Courtesy Campaign, which was originally launched in 1979, was incorporated into the Singapore Kindness Movement (SKM). Indeed, courtesy is the simplest form of kindness, and both courtesy and kindness are underpinned by sincerity - kindness comes from the heart, and courtesy forms the action, the outward expression of kindness.
Singa the Lion, the familiar icon for courtesy that most Singaporeans grew up with, is placed together with the kindness heart, bringing courtesy and kindness together to foster a more gracious society.
