Which first world country does not have homeless people? Making public places very comfy for homeless people will not solve the problem of homelessness.
The Singapore Government has a holistic approach to help homeless people. It is an approach that cuts across agencies and ministries. This is because the circumstances leading to homelessness are often complex and complicated. And the solution is not an easy solution.
You simply can't show that you care for homeless people by counting how many homeless people are out there.
There are people from PEER Network, working in partnership with MSF, walking at night to seek out the homeless and to befriend them as a first step to helping them.
Join them if you care.
