Day 1 reflections

  1. Did you notice any variation in the way the war was being portrayed through the photos? Is there any bias?
    There was no bias. As the way the war was being portrayed showed the views of both parties, there isn’t any bias.
    2. What are the impacts of the war? Think along the lines of types (economic, social, political, environmental), as well as short/long term impacts. You may consider the impacts of Agent Orange and more.
    The impacts of the war are causing the economy to shoot down and the after effects of chemicals to last awhile. The aftermath of the Agent Orange caused 3 generations of birth to produce deformed babies.
    3. Who won and who lost?
    The Vietnamese won the war. They won the war as they successfully managed to gain independence.
    4. Are there any lessons from the Vietnam War that Singapore can apply currently/in the future?
    No. As most of the stuff which both parties did was negative and would most of the time result in casualties, I feel that there are no lessons from the Vietnam War that Singapore can apply in the future.
