<!-- START OF : div id="storytext"--><!-- more than 4 paragraphs -->WE HAVE lived abroad for the past 12 years and usually return annually twice a year to visit family and friends. We have always been impressed by the courtesy shown by people from all walks of life wherever we go in Singapore.
But last Wednesday and Thursday we saw how well the Singapore system works. We came back from a holiday on a late flight and my daughter, who is 11, came down with a fever and sore throat on the flight. Immediately on arrival, we were isolated when the thermal scanner picked up her temperature.
From that moment, a whirlwind ride took us from Changi Airport Terminal 1 to KK Women's and Children's Hospital and back home. Despite the seriousness of the situation, all the professionals involved - including nurses, doctors both at the airport and the hospital, immigration officers, ambulance paramedics, security officers and the volunteer taxi driver who took us home - treated us with respect and courtesy and were efficient in carrying out their duties.
My children, who are only nine and 11, did not feel alarmed at any time. What really impressed me was how we were treated well and did not even have to pay for all the services provided. When we reached home at about 3.30am it did not take us long to fall asleep.
In any other country, I am not sure we would have been accorded such excellent service during this difficult period.
