World Food Day: Have We Forgotten the Value of Food?Imagine a child going to bed hungry while, somewhere else, perfectly good food is being thrown into a dustbin. Imagine a farmer working tirelessly for months to grow rice, only to see the value of that hard work overlooked. These contrasting realities reveal one of the greatest ironies of our world: although food is essential for survival, its true value is often forgotten. When I think about the paddy fields, the harvest and the traditional meals that were part of our lives during childhood, I feel a deep sense of nostalgia.
