STRAITS TIMES photographer How Hwee Young's brief was simple: Go snap a group shot of breastfeeding mothers at a World Breastfeeding Week event in Plaza Singapura.
That assignment would take her all of three hours to complete. But the end result - capturing 'a rare moment when they were so exuberant' - made the effort worthwhile. It was published in The Straits Times (ST) on Aug 5, 2002.
This heartwarming picture is among 240 colour shots which have been compiled in a 128-page book, A Year In Pictures 2002." [A great picture. Unfortunate wording, "a rare moment when they were so exuberant..." - JC]

Breastfeeding row goes to the topJanuary 28, 2003
"VICTORIAN Attorney-General Rob Hulls has issued a please explain to the Melbourne Racing Club over an alleged ban on breastfeeding at committee room functions.
Mr Hulls today said racing clubs were able to make their own rules regarding admittance to the course, but such rules could not be used to get around equal opportunity laws.
"The Melbourne Racing Club is on Crown land and the Melbourne Racing Club needs to understand that we have laws in this state that make it quite clear that you cannot discriminate against a person on the basis of breastfeeding."
Mr Hulls' comments follow a dispute between the Mayor of the City of Glen Eira, Peter Goudge, and the club, after his wife was told she was not allowed to breastfeed their 12-week-old son at a committee room function yesterday." [Hmmm, the mayor's wife. Good for her for making a stink. - JC]
