This girl is amazing. Not only the things she was talking about, but even more the way she carried herself and her confidence and the way she gave her speech. She was only 12 then. Not to mention the 12 year old Singaporeans now; I can't imagine myself giving such a speech now. It really shows the different emphasis between her country's education system and ours.

Please take the time to watch and listen. It is really enlightening to hear the issues she has brought up.

I think it is very saddening to know that the world only caught on and started saving this earth 15 years after this speech was given.
