This is our first post. We took some pictures which show the globalizations in TJC.
First picture shows the banner which was being placed under TRC. This is actually the banner for the tourism club. As we know, their job is to take people from other schools or even other countries to see TJC and Singapore. They actually had accompanied exchanged students from China, Japan and other countries to see our school. They also introduced them many places of interests in Singapore. This is a part of globalization as people from different places get to know about each others and their cultures.
The second picture shows a poster from E-club. It is a poster for booking the newest book of Harry Porter. This actually shows globalization. Harry Porter is a series of books written by British writer, but now people from many different countries all like it. This is a cultural globalization as people from different countries and different cultural backgrounds tend to have the same interest. So students in TJC are same as other teenagers who like Harry Porter and want to get the new book first.
The third one is a poster of the “TJC overseas outreach program 2007”. It shows that students also have chances to know about people in other countries. They can take part in this kind of program to know more about those poor’s living conditions, and they can also help them by putting in their efforts. In this case, students will go to Yunnan and Cambodia to build school and library for the local students. This shows that as an effect of globalization, we now know more about the world than just our own town.
The fourth one is our school canteen. We can see that we actually have different stores which sell different kinds of food. We have Chinese food, Indian food and Malay food. We have more choices because we have different styles of food provided. This is also a part of globalization.
The last one is taken at the car park. We can see that there are many different cars. They are produced in different countries using the materials provided by different companies all around the world. This is a good way to show the economic globalization.
