TASK A: A DIARY OF A PARIAH


Dear Diary ,
I live in an area where it is unfair . Are all the countries as bad as this ? How can they be so cruel ? I hate to be social outcast or known as , the Untouchables . A position where no one once to be . It is undesirable , accompanied with a lack of respect oe even no respect , authority, and access to society at large .
I can’t believe the caste system is so rigid . I want to be like other children being able to read and write . I wish we could learn , but , no we are outcast . Whatever our father’s do we would take after them . My father’s someone who can build ceramics . Soon, I will take over that job eventhough I’m better at sewing .
I wish and wish that I would be able to be one of the upper class like the Brahmins ,but, I know it is impossible . They choose my life . I follow .

Signing off,
Hakira

Confucius: Yexin; Charmaine; Iffah; Lois; Tong Fei
1.How would each Varna approve/disapprove the caste system?
I think that the 4 main varnas will approve of it as they have a secured position and can do something. However, i think the Pariahs will disapprove of it as they are considered as the untouchables, and cannot move up to become a higher class.

2.What makes it fair/unfair?
-It is unfair because there is no meritocracy and the Vaishyas and Shudras cannot increase their rank even though they have the talent.
It would be fair for the Brahmins and Kshatriyas as their whole generation will be respected

3.Would it be possible to apply the caste system in Singapore?

· No, it would not.

· Because it would be unfair and it would affect us

· Singaporeans like us would not like people to be above us.

· Besides, there might be some clever people in the lower class which cannot move up to the upper classes to benefit the society.
