新加坡舞蹈圈風波：鏡子磨砂，舞步移向他處！

In Singapore, there was a popular walkway where young dancers liked to practise their routines. This walkway connects Bayfront MRT station to Gardens by the Bay, one of Singapore's most famous attractions. The walkway is wide, has floor-to-ceiling mirrors, and is used by hundreds of people every day. For years, dancers used the mirrors to practise and improve their moves, and sometimes tourists and commuters would stop to watch.

However, at the start of the year, the dancers arrived to find the mirrors had been frosted over. This meant they could no longer see themselves while dancing. The reason for this change was that some people complained the dancers were blocking the path in this busy area. The walkway is owned by Marina Bay Sands, a big hotel and shopping mall, but it is used by many people, not just hotel guests. The decision to cover the mirrors started a debate in Singapore about how public spaces should be used and who gets to decide.

Some people agreed with the complaints, saying the dancers were inconsiderate and sometimes blocked the way with their props. Others thought the decision was too strict and said they enjoyed watching the dancers. They also pointed out that renting a dance studio in Singapore is very expensive. Now, some dancers practise at a quieter train station where mirrors have been set up in a corner. But it is not as lively as before. This situation shows how Singapore is a city with many rules and a strong focus on order. Some people think this makes the city safe and clean, while others wish there was more freedom for creative activities. The debate continues as Singapore tries to balance order with allowing people to use public spaces in different ways.
