My first impressions of this 'scholar' are:
1) Nerdy, dorky, fat and ugly. Okay we have had fat leaders in the
past. Bill Gates also looked like a nerd when he was in his 20s but
at least you had a gut feeling that these pple could be leaders.
Churchill was fat but he definately had chrisma.
But this guy gives an impression that he has none of that, none of
the signs that he can be a good leader. He's probably a PAP
loyalist and a racist one at that.
In the real world outside of S'pore, he won't survive. Case
closed.
2) His privileage background has made him ignorant, arrogant and
basically made him into an a$$hole. He thinks he's so smart just
because he studied in RI and top class JC n therefore he has the
right to trample over minority races as and when he likes it.
It's a sad and desperate case, this smart aleck is.
3) I will not pay taxes for this sort of scholar and later, this
sort of civil servant. He doesn't inspire much confidence, in my
opinion and never will he be able to do so.
It's just a gut feeling of course but I'm pretty sure about that.
In any case, if that's the way PSC scholars think about minority
races and other related matters, then I fear for the future of
S'pore.
Take my word, these sort of guys & gals will wreck S'pore's
future. I'm sure of it.
