True Talent

We just don't have creative people like Mohd Yunus: The poor man's banker... 'real talent who makes others rich first'... he's foreign! We, however, certainly have clever people who makes others look good so that they get rich

Elites have failed to restructure the economy from the 1970s. There is no sign that the numerous past economic restructuring plans to value-adding model are being implemented to catch up with the world's technology-driven countries like Korea or Finland.Originally posted by eyebuzz:We just don't have creative people like Mohd Yunus: The poor man's banker...

The Swiss standard of living which was promised was not realised. Instead the ordinary people's wages have dropped to the third world and costs of essential public services have risen to the first world from medicare to transportation and utilities have risen forming 40-60% of family income among the lower income groups.
The continued increases of fees and taxes are therefore wrong policies from the past which have hampered the growth of the economy from the 1970s.
There is no broad-based growth now except those MNCs or GLCs which are making monies out of people's CPF cuts and not from any particular success in innovation or practical knowledge application by the masses.
There is no sign the economy will grow on its own through self-reliant innovations or knowledge application by the people except for occasional world-connected freak growths.
So to the ministers, please think harder - do you take it for granted that the current growth has been created by the government.
True talents are those who could grow the economy from innovation and practical knowledge application involving the masses. But since ministers have only been promoting foreign companies and foreigh talents how could they ever achieve such upgrading.
In defeat of applying true talent ministers are seen only as continuing to tax people heavily and recover all costs through creative accounting.
Is this kind of tax-and-recover system called talented government? -

"The dialogue with Mr Lee was about the role of universities as the world globalises.
But presidents and chancellors from universities worldwide took the opportunity to also get Mr Lee's views on a whole range of international issues - from terrorism and how the world should response with a growing China and India?
They also asked Mr Lee what he would do to focus on if he had to go through the education system once again?
Mr Lee said: "I think to learn enough linguistic skills to be able to do business in Southeast Asia. I ought to know the Malay language, I also ought to know the Chinese language because they are going to be one of the biggest single dynamo.
"Where would I want myself to be educated? First, here. I got the network, then where else? Today, I think I will tell my grandson I think you better go to America. It will be the largest single factor in the Pacific for a very long time."
Mr Lee stressed that the younger generation needed to be well educated and connected to different cultures, to survive this brave new world. - CNA/de" -
It's an oxymoron, the company called creative.
-
Actually, it's a car named desire.

it's hopeless, they only hear what they want to hear. otherwise you will have to join an opposition to present an alternative idea.

we have been in the baby walking chair so much our legs are atrophied so much less walk and I dare not think of running. We need crutches eventually because we never had the chance to have freedom of the free market to test our strength and know our potential.

I'm one true talent.

Not really, you forgot about ablity. Everything here is based on both.Originally posted by redstone:Everything here based on paper qualifications -
if we want to get rich, we should get into action and be rich instead of waiting for others to teach you how to get rich which many people wait for the 'chances' to be rich but often failed to wait that long.Originally posted by eyebuzz:We just don't have creative people like Mohd Yunus: The poor man's banker...

don't wait for other to teach you, find your own ways to be rich. -
Appreciate your positiveness... _fallen. Haiz, there are times/things you can't control and may need help at one time or another... b/w visit some care centres if you will, if only they can with your help they certainly increase their chances...Originally posted by the_fallen:if we want to get rich, we should get into action and be rich instead of waiting for others to teach you how to get rich which many people wait for the 'chances' to be rich but often failed to wait that long.

True Talent :
1. increase pay, increase cost of living, raise taxes, increase ERP and etc.
2. tell the nation its for your own good that these things are done and people believe
3. 4 years later, still get elected back as the one and only absolute power -
visit what care centres?Originally posted by eyebuzz:Appreciate your positiveness... _fallen. Haiz, there are times/things you can't control and may need help at one time or another... b/w visit some care centres if you will, if only they can with your help they certainly increase their chances...
it's only those people who wants to help themselves who will take the step out and seek help from others.
not the other way round, a person who wants to help more people, going to find people to help them when they in the first place give up on themselves already and sit there DO NOTHING expecting to be helped.
only those who really needs help will ask for a helping hand one.
help only goes to those deserving candiates, and not the slackers who ask govt for more help to support them when they don't support and help themselves
I'm not selfish here, but i despise those people who give up on themselves.
zi gan duo luo
help should be used on those deserving candidates.
no offence intended to the poor or those needy people, i understand their helplessness, for I once used to be one of them, but i wake up my idea already..so ya...here i am helping only people who deserve it.
example:
a begger - he/she will do absoutely NOTHING, just sit there, stretch out hands ask for food and money.
this beggers = sit and wait to die
a person who wants to get rich - will think of ways to be rich (though ethical and legal ways) using their brains to think.
Something worth thinking here
just read!!
why the bosses only talks and does not actions and yet he/she earns so much by talking?
ANS simple - they use their brains to create value and earn, they dun work based on strength, brain is a smart tool to use, why use body with so many limits? -
talk cock or talk down? Inspiring perhaps?
