Here again it proves my point that many of the employers' purported
recruitment of talents is bullshit. No need to employ oxen knife to
kill chickens. Many of the local talents are fully capable but not
given the opportunities because the employers deemed they are not
talents! The Dean of Admissions of MIT bluffed MIT that she got 3
degrees from 3 schools 28 years ago when she applied to be Admin
Asst. In 18 yrs she managed to climb on the opportunity given to
finally become the Dean of Admissions. She manages to hold the fort
for a decade before being found out that she has never graduated.
QED. She would not have been promoted to Dean had they know that
she never graduate before which seems to be superfluous
requirement!
Of course, I am not condoning her cheating at all. What she did was
just like so many elites have done like roughly 50% ofthose grads
who cheat at least once in their college education - many corporate
elites that cheat the public - all much lesser than they are
respected for!!!
Leaders are people who are given the opportunity to serve the
people but our leaders often claim they are the talents.
This is a typical case which clearly shows that people without
university degree could equally excel as a university dean if given
an opportunity to work as one based on real work ability rather
than possession of university examination often insisted upon by
our leaders.
Except in special fields, what we should be more concerned with is
the real work ability to produce efficiency and increase our
economic competitiveness.
Unfortunately our leaders continue to create exclusivity in all
professions and career insisting nowadays that even working as a
security guard requires passing of an examination. No wonder costs
of security guards hiring went up by more than 10% since the latest
MHA ruling for security guard accreditation in 2006 based on the
excuse of combating terrorism.
Very soon it may become necessary for citizens to pass examination
and obtain paper qualification to do baby sitting or cooking.
But in our society such persons who are many are denied opportunity
to make good even if they prove their abilities in the working
place simply because they lack the paper qualifications.
Employers are generally biased and not willing to accept people
with abilities.
So this case once again proves the point there is no such thing as
talents based on claims or assumptions like a university degree or
first- or second -class honours.
Once a person is given an opportunity to serve as a minister or MP,
he or she should be humble to serve the people and not claim they
are the real talents.
We have yet come across those with higher educations excelling in
any particular field because of that education.
Rather it is the opportunity given that person to work in
particular field and determine finally whether he has learned
enough from that opportunity to become talents from real exposures,
period.
So to all the ministers and MPs we citizens would like to say this
: do not claim to be talents and just do your job well done. When
you have served the people well then people will decide whether you
are of special abilities like the Japanese managers who produced a
Toyota Production System to help our workers to turn around their
economic competitiveness.
