Gifting breeds corruption. On baking for self consumption, I am fine. I don't recall this. What about Pandan reservoir? What's there that are interesting to see for a walk?

It's unhealthy. It's useless folk culture. It breeds consumerism. It serves no nutritional benefits. And worse, colleagues and friends discussing which moon cake manufacturers have the nicest looking box on WhatsApp Group Chat. Are they eating the box too? I really find society and human...
