Aren't you glad PAP is doing such a great job that lowly sinkies like you have a chance to rise to the top? Remember 'Kee-Chiu' Chan Chun Sing, son of a washerwoman? He rose to be SAF's chief-of-army and now labour union chief. He's the epitome of meritocracy in Singapore.

This only happen when almost everyone is equally poor and you have post war population boom. Every rich Singaporean has a rag to rich story.

That world has disappeared.

These days, it is much harder to strike it rich simply because there are too many rich around.

From Japan to the 4 Asian tiger economies to China.

What happened to the Chinese promise, coastal cities get rich first, followed by inland cities.

While the CCP has many flaws, it has largely kept its promise that the inland cities would also get rich.

One is based on Confucius teaching, mankind teaching. When Confucius was asked abut God, he said let's talk about man.

The other cannot change their belief of even elephants, monkeys, rats and cows are Gods.

Also Chinese are materialistic people whereas Ah Neh are godly people. As long as they are happy with their life style leave them alone. Angmoh imposed too many of their life style to forced other nations to change to be like them. Only Chinese can take their nonsense.

The 'Truth' of Chinese Thinking

Ancient Chinese believed that the established of 'truth' in any argument, was found somewhere in the middle and arrived at only through compromise. They saw each party in a dispute as possessing some truth and some falsehood.

What nonsense! Societies are poor and backward because of their society moral values which breeds inequality, injustice and corruption. All that rubbish talk about focusing on spirituality is a cover-up for their misdeeds. They have poor public infrastructure because civil servants and government leaders loot the public coffers to line their own pockets. Private investors won't invest in their public projects because they have no confidence that they can get their money back, let alone make a profit.

dunno why kept keeping about this comic since i first saw it this morning.
the start-line for everyone is different and instead of narrowing, the gap grows wider when we grow up.

if you are not there, you will never be there.

PA provides a lot of social assistance to disadvantaged families. Please apply at your nearest RC if you need some form of financial assistance. PAP government also said that every school is a good school, so you won't be left behind even if you can't make it to RI and RJC like my son did. Your neighbourhood school can also help you succeed. That's how good PAP is.
