Vegan Burg

Today, I am going to share on a restaurant in my favourite list: Vegan Burg



Vegan Burg is the only restaurant that serves solely vegan burgers in Singapore. It is healthy, nutritious and wholesomely good. Their mission is to inspire and excite the world in introducing vegan diet into their lifestyle, as a form of sustainable diet and means of restoration for our global environment.

They started out when they realize that the world reports distressing climatic happenings and developments one after another. Therefore they wanted to raise awareness of the environmental crisis and gather every small effort in creating a possibility for our planet.


Being the only vegan fast food restaurant in Singapore, Vegan Burg is healthy and delicious. It is of the same standard with other fast food restaurant yet it promotes vegan diet and raise awareness for global warming different from the aims of other meat based fast food.

They provide a variety of vegan burgers.


These set meals provides everyone a filling and healthy meal and also helping the world at the same time.

I find Vegan Burg very inspiring  As a vegetarian out of own choice, I really admire people who can show the world the real problem of global warming and tries to raise as much awareness as possible. People always say, global warming is too big of a issue for individuals to make a difference. Yes, it may be true, but if a lot of individuals come together and start to work towards this social problem, a difference can be make. We should all try out best to sustain this world for our future generations.

Be it social enterprise or not, I think the most important thing is to start something with doing good as the starting point.

Social Intrapreneurs

http://socialenterprise.guardian.co.uk/social-enterprise-network/small-business-blog/2013/apr/17/social-intrapreneurs-changemakers-companies



I think that social entrepreneurship is a very vague term. While I was trying to look for an article about social enterprises, I came across social intrapreneurs. I found it really interesting. The thing about social intrapreneurs is that they start to make a difference in their corporate or company. Instead of starting from scratch, they can work within a company that is already stable and established and help a group of beneficiaries. I feel that this can actually produce more results and make more difference. For social enterprises, it is very easy to start up in singapore, but it is very hard to sustain, and their awareness is always low compared to established companies. Therefore I think this would actually help a lot of people. However, there are cons to being a social intrapreneurs too. I looked up on articles about social intrapreneurs and they show that some of the problems they may face. One of it is this:

Thus, I feel that there are pros and cons to both social entre/intrapreneur and I am still deciding which one I would actually really love to work on. Maybe we should all take some time and think about this. That's all for this week.
