bollocks! its the same lah... u don't perform, they hang u out to dry.
if anything, its worse actually cos there's intense competition with the scholars.
now i know the official position is that scholars are no different from the rest. but think about it... would they ignore a scholar after spending so much money to send him overseas for education? they'll definitely monitor his performance more closely.
i think civil service is a good "entry level" job... but its never a good idea to stay too long in there. depending on where u are, either the monotony would rot your brain or the politics would burn u bad.
