New edited introduction

Have you been to Singapore? Then you should have heard of Orchard Road. Orchard Road is one of the premier shopping streets in the world and it is know to some Singaporeans as the heart of Singapore. It is visited by huge flocks of tourists every year and there has been a lot of positive feedback. In an effort to make Orchard Road a better place, the Singapore Tourism Board (STB) has announced its plan of a $40 million makeover for Orchard Road. However, I feel that the money pumped into this expensive project has not been put into good use because this project has a minimal impact on tourists and may even backfire. I will show that there are more important priorities for Singapore instead of a lavish Orchard Road facelift, and that the project will have a minute impact and what it achieves will eventually contradict its aims.

  3. The question is rather interesting. However, I think that the question is not very attention grabbing.I think you should change your question to something more exaggerated . For example, you can start by asking what would you do with 40 million dollars?

  4. It's more vivid than the before one and if it contains more your emotion, that will be better.
