There are many dimensions of freedom, independence. At times we tend to look at it only geo-politically. The very meaning of independence, I believe, is not to depend on anyone or any factor beyond our control to fulfill our needs and wants; and able to adequately control or manage factors that could badly influence or negatively affect our well-being.
Beyond the usually known meaning, we must extend it to also include independence of drug, mat rempit, bad culture, etc. We may not be able to totally eliminate these but as long as they do not sap away significant amount of energy and resources, they should be tolerable and taken as the unavoidable in life...
