In a small section under home, our dear Mr Lim Boon Heng attend
JJC's (Jurong Junior College) DND. In his speech, he touch on the
topic of elitism and says that the elite in Singapore do have
compassion for the under privilege. He went on to say that elites
like the students of JJC should take up the responsibility to
society and not should any elitism.
Not to insult JJC students but are all JC students considered
elites??? If I remember correctly, they are top 10 starting from
the bottom of the JC ranking. Even some courses in polytechnic have
cut-off points are lower than their's. If that is the case, I think
all polytechnic and private students are elites too.
I think they are trying to blur the lines to confuse the public and
pushing the responsibility away. LBH is making a fool out of the
students and himself.
i think the ministers in singapore all has got the mistaken view
that JC students are elites lar (dun get me wrong, i'm in JC
myself)...simply put, the gahmen is making it seems as if all
s'pore jc students are elites. how wrong can that be...
even heard of how some ppl wif L1R5 of 20 points yet still trying
to squeeze into JC, yet how others wif L1R5 of 6 points still
choose to go poly? elite my foot.
