Lately the goverment has being touching on how the youngsters in Singapore such as students and those new to the work force-below age of 30,are becomng more spolit,wilful and pampered,not ready to face international challenge.Is it true or is it just a handful that creates a big fuss?
Puppy -
generally true - due to over-pampering parents and too good living conditions.
-
Conclusion - They want us to face international challenges. In other word, globalisation. No point beating around the bush. Anyway, you'll probably be seeing more of it or hearing more of them...Originally posted by StarPuppy: Lately the goverment has being touching on how the youngsters in Singapore such as students and those new to the work force-below age of 30,are becomng more spolit,wilful and pampered,not ready to face international challenge.Is it true or is it just a handful that creates a big fuss?

nowsdays teens n those in their early twenties r like ah qua
look at their dressing, and the way they talk n carry themselves ....woohoo they r just a bunch of pretty boys..
n they r suppose to b the core of our future generations... -
Agree!!! But parents also have to play apart. They r over protecting their children. Juz now at a bank, one of the bank teller told me tat she will complain to the govt if her son ( waiting for enlistment ) kena tekan in the army... She even ask me what ways to make her son eligible for a clerk vocation. Hey, ur son is going to be a soldier, not some sicklings!!!Originally posted by nww16:true...

Can we detract from Army forming men and stuff like that?
Army is not the single source that seperates man from boys.. It doesnt matter how you keng in NS, bcos it's what you do in NS that counts. Even if you are a storeman or clerk, you just do your best. That then is counted as being a man.
Anyway, sorry for digressing, Teens these days are pathetic man.. They are pampered and sheltered. They are what in army context "HAVEN'T WAKE UP THEIR IDEA!"
-
alot of ppl in singapore are like that one lah... once they get in the army..and leave...they will be a changed person
but for some, without the help of the army..they are still "manly". That is of cause...only a few lor
heck, even some boys came out from the army..geeez they are still like akua... my gawd.. -
Sheesh... So fast the topic becomes NS liao?
Let me see... I've never like my NS in the 1st place... But I do have to admit that I've learnt much from it though the duration was a bit long... But whatever the heck? There're many more things which I don't like.... Wait... Let me bring out my 'don't like' list... -
