This is the reason why Sinkie government welcomes New citizens. They contributes, not like old sinkies only complain & keep asking for help.

Jet Li meets Apec youth delegates

GONGFU star Jet Li was in town on Thursday to share his vision with Apec youth delegates on creating a philanthropic society.

He also spoke to them about his philosophy on "thinking big, acting small", where small actions amount to a greater change.

This was part of the Voices of the Future (VOF) programme to talk about the roles young people can play to create a more philanthropic society.

Li also shared his dreams for the One Foundation, a charity foundation that was set up by him in April 2007 after he and his family were caught up in the 2004 tsunami while on a holiday in the Maldives.

"Big is good, small is great", said Mr Li in Mandarin. "We all have a role to play in the community, whether your role is big or small."

When asked how he compares himself with Bruce Lee in terms of giving and contributing to society, Li answered that he did not see that he is giving or contributing.

Instead, he felt that it was his responsibility as a human being to look after the earth and be answerable to the next generation.

The session stretched past one hour as the actor turned philanthropist was swamped with more than 20 questions.

Jet Li buys $20m bungalow
Actor's new Binjai Rise home was once owned by FJ Benjamin founder

MARTIAL arts movie star Jet Li and his wife, former actress Nina Li Chi, have bought a sprawling bungalow in Bukit Timah for $19.8 million.

The freehold property is a 22,723 sq ft good class bungalow (GCB) in Binjai Rise - a house with past links to another global celebrity, football star David Beckham.

GCBs are a prestigious class of bungalows in limited supply here, found only in gazetted prime residential areas such as Nassim Road and Ridley Park. They have a minimum land area of 15,000 sq ft.

Li, 46, who is taking a break from acting to focus on charity work, launched the Jet Li One Foundation Project in April last year jointly with the Red Cross Society of China to raise funds for victims of natural disasters worldwide.

The Beijing-born actor, whose Chinese name is Lianjie, then set up a branch of One Foundation in Singapore last year.

In 2007, he had moved his wife and two younger daughters to Singapore. He is now understood to be a Singapore citizen, according to the Business Times, which broke news of the sale yesterday.

The two younger daughters - he has two other teenage daughters from an earlier marriage - attend the Singapore American School.

Li, who previously lived in Los Angeles, has starred in numerous Hollywood and Chinese movies. Recent releases include The Mummy: Tomb Of The Dragon Emperor (2008) and Fearless (2006).

His first Hollywood leading role was in the hip hop, gongfu film Romeo Must Die.

A check yesterday showed that Li's GCB deal was sealed in the middle of last month. The seller had suffered a loss of $1.2 million on the deal.

He dun nid to cum here cos he oredi residing here.
He has embraced Buddhism and is a follower of the Dalai Lama's Gelugpa Sect.
Buddhism has changed the way he looks at life and he has compassion for those suffering, so wat is wrong with him teaching the world's bestest paid gahmen TO TAKE CARE OF THE PEOPLE!
