Jakarta attacked: All the brave words

All that brave speech but what counts is action. I guess that is being Indonesian. Trinna Leong cannot resist after telling how folks are staying away to round it up with the following by a college student,

"I feel much safer now..."

Yeah?

But at least their security forces do not lack courage or determination. Kudos to them.

After 9/11 the Americans showed up in force at their football games. They were not afraid. Now that is courage in action.

If something like Jakarta would to happen in Singapore, how would we behave afterward? The last time we stood in the rain but that is determination, nothing to do with courage.
