yes yes i know..as bear always remind me of the term "personal responsibility"..Originally posted by Fatum:aiyah ... judge the parent and child as seperate individuals lah ...
one tries one's best ... but I don't think anyone can help it if the son turns into a prick eh ...
but i just can't help but feel that a child's growing up process is more or less down to the background and his family..oh well maybe his mum is so busy winning votes that she neglects her own son..
-
I dunno what's the opp talking either
Earlier they said the Progrss Package is kinda vote buying... Now they slammed it as not enough...
meng sa meng si -
Mr Chiam See Tong hit out at SG's ties with Malaysia
Look now, over the bridge issue, who's the one that never considered abt the legal implications and just went ahead to build it? -
although i would like to see the opposition giving pap a real hard time but somehow i just feel that they ain't up to standard..
-
oh well ... in that case, make sure that it doesn't ever become your "famous last words" when you have children of your own next time yah ...Originally posted by stellazio:yes yes i know..as bear always remind me of the term "personal responsibility"..

Just now @ the Hougang Ave 1 market, saw 1 RSAF MAJ wearing slacks... Hardly see RSAF or Army ladies wearing slacks

it's something i asked the last GE...
we have a bunch of sycophants who kissed ass all the way to the top in the PAP, and on the other side, we have a bunch of idiots who don't know their asses from their elbows..
who do we vote for?
i would spoil my vote.. -
Sadly, in the cabinet it's only some ministers that are down to earthOriginally posted by the Bear:it's something i asked the last GE...

but the best, does it include using her position of power to influence the school into making decisions in favour of her son?
if so, what does that say about the person?
what does that say about the office the person is holding?Originally posted by Fatum:aiyah ... judge the parent and child as seperate individuals lah ...

well ... firstly, I guess appealing to the principal would be a natural reaction of any parent, ... but I won't speculate about just how effective a personal intervention from an MP would be ....Originally posted by the Bear:but the best, does it include using her position of power to influence the school into making decisions in favour of her son?

I have this feeling that it's more of the ass-kissers carrying balls rather than out-right nepotism at work though ... you should know, bear, how some officials would get all brown-nosed and such, pulling all stops for some VIPs eh ? ... -
Or could it be because the sch see her mum's a MP, they just promote him?Originally posted by the Bear:but the best, does it include using her position of power to influence the school into making decisions in favour of her son?

uh huh...
you should see the gutless wonders we call "senior management" run around like headless chickens when a letter from an MP or a Minister appears...
now, if an MP goes and asks about her son, think.. sycophants get promoted.. the people who can, do the work and rarely have time to go kiss ass to get promoted... so.. what will happen?
it takes 2 hands to clap...
but being an MP, i think she would bloody well know what will happen... if not, she's more idiotic than we gave her discredit for...
and if she does know, she's more manipulative and cynical then the people realise..
either way, it isn't anything good for her... -
It's all stinking politics
Wondering when can a dip holder hold office in the civil service... -
the older dudes, yes...
one of the fellas at work has an O-Level and is pretty high up in the ranks of senior officers... but he's an exception...
it's coz he can work very well and everyone respects him that he's got that rank and position...
but he's due for retirement soon..Originally posted by sbst275:It's all stinking politics

well ... I think this is one of those dammed if you do, dammed if you don't situations ... blame it on the Singapore psyche ... many people love pandering up to VIPs ...
but yeah, the son deserves a good spanking though ... -
Sadly, the younger gen, dip holders though they might be better than the A lvl grads, they lu gi...Originally posted by the Bear:the older dudes, yes...

They are lagging behind the pte sector -
the government won't give the diploma holders a chance..thats why we have people having the "elitist" mindset and why JC students are often caught looking down on their poly counterparts..
-
But sadly, the parents need their spanking as well, everyone's giving the mindset of this to our young gen.. But at least the % of ppl going to poly is getting moreOriginally posted by stellazio:the government won't give the diploma holders a chance..thats why we have people having the "elitist" mindset and why JC students are often caught looking down on their poly counterparts..
The scholarship is unfair as well -
unless the child has a mind of his own, he will take after the parent...
what does that say about the child there?
-
to me, scholarships is about your academic ability so i think its pretty fair..but i just can't stand the fact that i'm looked down upon because i didn't go to a JC and it was my choice, not that i didn't have the means too..Originally posted by sbst275:But sadly, the parents need their spanking as well, everyone's giving the mindset of this to our young gen..

man, i should enter politics..

You see civil service or SAF, they still look A lvls ppl for being office holders or officers respOriginally posted by stellazio:to me, scholarships is about your academic ability so i think its pretty fair..but i just can't stand the fact that i'm looked down upon because i didn't go to a JC and it was my choice, not that i didn't have the means too..

For dip holders, SAF scholarship can only let you be techs
Pls, dun... Unless you have to real time to spend time even with the decent weekly MTP session -
you should only enter politics if you have the need and drive to serve the people...
we already have too many in politics who enter because they want the people to serve them -
Being full time MPs also no use, remember Gombak's Ling?
