Yes, about to bring Ah Wong out to whack. He did not even have
the balls to hand in his resignation letter. If PAP had wayang a
bit (ie he submit resignation, they reject), his image would have
been salvaged. But now, all I see is a cowardly turtle sitting on a
diamond throne totally afraid of losing the seat. Even courage is
out of the window, because he wants to keep his $$$.
Adding to your example, I have another friend who was 1st class
honours in my cohort, he once told me, "For normal people like us,
we should get punished for making mistakes, but for those elites,
we have to forgive them because they are far and few"
Just what sort of logic is that??? Just like every Singaporean
who was fed by the govt with "We have limited talent, so we cannot
afford to lose them. They make mistake, we accept", he accepted
that he must be punished but elites don't need to get punished for
making the same mistake. DUH!!!
To me, the higher you go, the more accountability you should be
holding. Such that, normal people make that mistake, they might be
forgiven, but for the person sitting in an elite position, he
CANNOT be forgiven for making that normal mistake, BECAUSE he is an
ELITE.
*fainted* skewed logic to keep incapable and cowardly people in
leadership positions. And the best part is, our fellow citizens
accept! *fainted*
Well written. Unfortunately reality is that this limited talent
thing came from within our country. They could hire a Warren Buffet
or Bill Gates to head the civil service but the problem is the
issue of national security and secrecy. We cannot take in any
tom dick and joe Harry from the outside even though he could be
very talented. Ours is a fragile economy and society and we cannot
afford treason, betrayal
