A kite is traditionally a tethered heavier-than-air craft with wing surfaces that react against the air to create lift and drag. A kite consists of wings, tethers and anchors. Kites have a bridle to guide the face of the kite at the correct angle so the wind can lift it. A kite may have fixed or moving anchors.
The lift that sustains the kite in flight is generated when air flows around the kite's surface, producing low pressure above and high pressure below the wings. The interaction with the wind also generates horizontal drag along the direction of the wind. The resultant force vector from the lift and drag force components is opposed by the tension of one or more of the lines or tethers to which the kite is attached. The anchor point of the kite line may be static or moving (e.g., the towing of a kite by a running person, boat, free-falling anchors as in paragliders and fugitive parakites or vehicle).
The same principles of fluid flow apply in liquids and kites are also used under water.
NTUC Income Insurance Co-operative Limited is the only insurance cooperative in Singapore. It provides life, health and general insurance products.
It currently has seven branches and client advisory centres across Singapore.
The idea of co-operatives, also known as social enterprises, was first conceived at the Modernisation Seminar in 1969, where delegates from NTUC affiliated unions gathered to discuss the challenges Singaporean workers were facing. Then, Singapore was a third-world nation with a population comprising mostly blue-collar and low income workers.
One of the founding leaders of NTUC, Mr Devan Nair, articulated the need for the Labour Movement to turn into a social institution to serve Singaporean workers in various ways. Then Finance Minister Dr Goh Keng Swee supported this call and urged NTUC to set up social enterprises in areas such as life insurance and essential consumer goods to meet the needs of the working population.
This led to the establishment of NTUC co-operatives or Social Enterprises.

You are a lonely child
Nobody prays for you
Sadly, faces will remind
That you're not real anymore
Shadow sleep softly
Dreams will fill your mind
You are a frightened child
Nobody knows of you
Sadly, people that you never understood
Bring you more heartache
Sleep softly
Dreams will fill your mind
When I was young and scared of the dark
I used to just lie there and shake
'Til I built a dream that made this okay
Its music would sing me asleep
To a special place
Wherefore I know not
But the voices were soft all around
Over their breeze
Me and my kite friend
Would laugh at the heavy ground
You are the only one
Nobody cares for truth
Sadly, faces will remind
That you're not real anymore
Shadow, sleep softly
Dreams will fill your mind
Dream softly
Sleep will fill your mind
