coming back to the topic, I used to think I am cold towards
Singapore, and regard myself as a mercenary. With my capabilities,
and knowledge, I know I can go anywhere, and I will go to the place
where I can earn the most money.
Recently, I finished my scholarship with a firm, and after getting
disillusioned with how the firm worked, moved on to a foreign MNC,
which values me much much more, and treats people better.
The recent govt fiasco of pay hike made me further disillusioned
with the society, and the direction it is heading. IT seems like
being happy is equated to money money money. I am very disappointed
with the way things are going, coz our society is going to become
worse and worse in terms of human values and compassion.
A big assault on the govt then followed with the fellow forum-lites
here, and I was honoured to be involved. Though we could not
protest physically, at least all of us here had some effect on the
govt (LHL had to donate his pay hike grumpily)
And it made me realize that even though I was disillusioned with
Singapore in general, I do have a passion to want to help the
general public.
So, I am planning that in the next few years, I will move out into
the world, and gain as much experience, exposure, and wealth, and
when I come back to Singapore, to be able to help lessen the pains
caused by the govt. I might even emigrate, but come back later
on.
Basically, I don't care what the govt labels me. That's their
propaganda. The most impt, is that, so long as we do what we see as
right, and move ahead, then no one has the right to judge us.
PS: I think LKY's analogy of harddisk and memory smacks of
ignorance of IT.
