Yes – if I were living in a country where I wouldn’t have to fly to enjoy 16 degree weather. | Weets Goh Writer |
Fazlie Hashim Art Director | Yes. I try to minimise flying unless circumstances — say, work — call for it. I don’t mind exploring less of the planet if that means more of it can be kept in good health. |
