Don't mind me sharing, you see most of the negative and illogical comments are from those have not start or no intention to start a family.

Read mummynew comments, that's something sensible.
Maybe they talking abt their own wake and funeral?

I think they never put any deep thoughts into the meaning of funerals or wakes. In due time, they shall and I think they will think different from what they said now...🙏

Nothing shocking..

In Buddhism, the physical body after death is considered an "empty vessel"... I don’t want my children to waste money on wake and funeral
yes a simple no grand type of funeral cost at least $17k and if misc cost added, it come up around $30k.

I don't think anyone told or trained Singaporeans to be cold. I attended funerals, many times over. This is the first I heard from edmwers saying they are going to skip the funeral and wake. That's coldest thing I heard from edmwers.
Die also die already, go and attend wake will come back alive meh? :(

Everytime I attending wake, I always feel sad for my friends, relatives or colleagues and will try to find out how the surviving family members coping...that's sad enough and I don't go to funerals of people too distant from me.

You can even say the wakes and funerals are for the family and friends...in remembrance of the deceased...🙏😓

When it happened to my immediate family... My heart hurts and I comfort myself saying at least they are free from the suffering of sicknesses and pain... But do I wish to be with them longer? I really wished...

So, edmwers are heartless to their families and really nothing to leave behind when they passed? I think not. The same old saying goes, wait till it happens to you or your families, then you'll know.

yes bro, people will not know how the feeling is like until it hit them one day.
Till now, i am still griveing and still hurts , everyday keep on thinking...and the feeling is completely different.
I am suffering in pain, and not only that, i have to clear my house, throw stuff away where it used to be there happily ...now everything changed...and i am really feeling tired. At home is completely different.
The feeling is indescribable, nobody will understand unless one has gone thru the same.

this concept is good
but i recall recently got news nea need to move the ashes from the garden ppl unhappy
Land is extremely scarce in Singapore. Even disposed ashes in a garden will face the risk of being evicted or transferred after a while.
What security is there left?
