Do You Fear The Line?

In 2008, I witnessed the hopes and dreams of Nepal as it turned from a monarchy to a republic. I was there as a journalism intern for six months -- a short and a long time all at once. By day, I wrote for a weekly newspaper. By night, I walked down the streets of Kathmandu. For a while, I wandered off to Pakistan.

What can a Singaporean learn from these foreign lands ? Lots, apparently. After all, travel is never just about places. What I also remember most vividly are the conversations on love, loss, friendship, and forgiveness. So here's the other side of the story that has gone unreported. In 'Do You Fear the Line?', every character has had to walk a distance, transcend an invisible boundary or confront the unfamiliar. ~ Wong Shu Yun
