haha. you must've lived in a town full of rednecks. Ya, i can
understand why you say so. So... i'd infer that... you'd chose a
country which suits your work/life personality?
Perhaps you dont have a family thats why you dont treasure the
work-life balance, or the laidback lifestyle? I dont know. Many
reasons. Sometimes its just that you might not be used to it.
But anyways...............
things will change in sg in the upcoming years. And i mean
rapidly. So... if you really feel attached to sg, id presume that a
sudden shift in the political/economic/labour landscape will not
affect your decision, and you'd still chose to stayput in sg?
On the contrary, I have been married for 12 years, and
family life is my top priority.
My feelings towards my country is because Singapore IS my
country. As the Russians like to put it - motherland.
It is a love-hate relationship. I have no doubt whatsoever
that our country has problems, as I have mentioned repeatedly in my
forums, but will I change my mother because she nags at me, or
disapproves my simplest of requests, or fail to appreciate the
sacrifices I mak for her, NO. I think the basis of ALL
relationships is compassion and forward-looking, why should our
take on our country be any different?
Am I a big fan of PAP, or LKY or LHL or GIC? Hell
NO. I just choose not to complain that much and seek to
understand and if possible something about it, but not getting
myself politically involved.
Again, I choose to return home not because Singapore is so
perfect, it is because it is MY COUNTRY, that's all. No need
to be called patriotic, just a regular joe who chooses to call this
place my home.
