“Five-day Work Week? Not for his teacher wife"
-
Well that's the gahmen for you here.....
Have you all ever noticed that when they come up with some grand policy like the 5 day work week....they always have 2 follow-ups for it...first is that they will trumpet their success to the whole world if it works....
And if it does not work.....they will keep it like low profile and scale down the operations of the policy over time...and then they come up with some statement saying that they decide to tweak the policy a little here and there and make it better.....never have you seen them apologize and admit that its a mistake or oversight on their part....they always have to be seen to be perfect, incapable of making wrong judgements...
No wonder many of us have given up on all the hot air talk and left this little red dot, including me....
Frankly, I don't mind an imperfect gahmen....so long as they come out in the open and admit and then try again...
Must be the stupid damn asian trait of saving face....save what face??

with all that work, are the teachers fairly remunerated??
-
I wonder why he complain. Every bit of effort by teachers goes into building up the next generation. If the wife is not happy, why not quit when the economy is doing so well and she can easily get a job elsewhere? silly right?

Each country need to work hard but how much harder? This is the question.Originally posted by Gazelle:still got to work hard arh.?
Singapore no intangilbles meh? -
How very true...and I so far feel that you have to work harder in Sillypore o maintain this pathetic life hereOriginally posted by will4:Each country need to work hard but how much harder? This is the question. -
I am glad you use the word FEEL.Originally posted by Coquitlam:How very true...and I so far feel that you have to work harder in Sillypore o maintain this pathetic life here -
My advice to you is, work hard and stop whinning, because you still have a long way to go before you can enjoy retirement life in Canada.Originally posted by Meilin86:Yes! I need some advices and links for beginners. Thz! -
Canada is just too cold man! Not good for retirees.
-
Nobody is mentioning about retiring in Canada.Originally posted by Mat Toro:Canada is just too cold man! Not good for retirees. -
We were just referring to some "sillyporean" trying to encourage singaporeans to migrate using pictures of snowy mountain and valley.Originally posted by will4:Nobody is mentioning about retiring in Canada.

If local prefer to migrate, let them be probabaly as u mentioned, they will be better if not happy here.Originally posted by Gazelle:We were just referring to some "sillyporean" trying to encourage singaporeans to migrate using pictures of snowy mountain and valley. -
HI MeilinOriginally posted by Meilin86:Yes! I need some advices and links for beginners. Thz!
Just ignore that loser Gazelle....like what others say....no one is mentioning about retiring in Canada and you don't have to whine just to want to get out of Sillypore...we all know the reasons...like most of us here know already about the loser's reputation...anyway....go ahead and apply....
