Honour-killing due to Tradition

Note:
-honour-killing
-Shi'ite vs Sunnis

Back to the tradition compre we did, here's an instance of honour-killing...see an earlier post on this HERE.

How tradition curtails individual freedom...belonging to different religious groups (albeit of the same religion) can be grounds for honour-killing...see difference between Shi'ite and Sunni Muslims HERE.

Sample Qn:
How important is it for people in your society to retain a sense of tradition?
(note that the 'your society' in this Qn does not allow u to mention honour-killing, unless 'your society' is Afghanistan or one of the more extreme Islamic countries. But by using the compare/contrast method of Explanation in the PEEL approach, you can mention this exmple for purpose of contrast to make a point about Singapore. and of course, no need to tell me their actual names!)
