We have to work extra hard to get the most out of our
lives....life is like you've said, unfair, but if we do nothing to
change our fate, who is to be blamed ?
It is dependent on the person's atitude...but having said that,
we must make sure the person do not feel disadvantage socially. We
need to guarantee social mobility.

I hope to see high probability, not the idea of "possibility" of
social mobility in Singapore. one in ten out of students
living in one-to-three room flats progress to university, and four
in 10 to polytechnic. this shows the proability is very low,
because of the fact that "richer parents tend to be able to send
their kids away for overseas universities even if their child
flunked their o levels."
In fact, this is happening in my class room. A guy from my class
doesn't pay sh-t attention during chinese lessons because his
parents promised to send him to UK after his O-levels. What about
me? I living and breathing in a three-room flat dare not dream of
going UK. I repeat what I said, life is terribly unfair. But, we
cannot let it seems to look unfair.
Please see political ideology like communism, socialism...etc.
These sprung out because social mobility is pretty much dead
then.
