tell me one scholar from this red dot who has done better than this Cantonese/hakka? (Lam )non scholar kampong (Batu Pahat) girl in their areas of research?

how about the so called self proclaimed top/world ranked universities here filled with thousands and thousands of scholars from PRC's and India-
not one can match a kampong girl from Johore?

So far only one I know who has made the news is A*Star scholar from PRC Ouyang Xiangyu accused of trying to poison her laboratory mates using a toxic chemical.

Don't forget the one who walked naked through Holland V. :biggrin:

PAP touts zikapore as a fantastic biochemistry R & D centre, but cannot attract next door talent. ASTAR is a fucking joke.

I speculate that if they have used the money they incurred for A*STAR, on Singaporean born students to further their education and research at SG universities, the long term benefits would be better,
instead of wasting it on perceived foreign talent.

not just the talent base among students and researchers, the academic leadership and mentorship with a record and history of vision and a nurturing environment are equally important. no point burying good seeds in horrible soil.

almost all (in fact all) students in the nus-stanford exchange/internship program will tell you they learn more and get more hands-on experience in 1 year in the valley than all their years in nus and sg combined. many do not wish to return to sg after 1 year but unfortunately they are obligated to. when they return they bring with them the valuable 1-year exposure to sg, but quickly the bright vision and enlightenment get dimmed by darkness, gloom, cockiness and bossiness pervasive in the sg academic and research environment.

symbiotic relationship. 3-way street among industry, vc community, and school. when a valley vc full of successful stanford alumni ask startup founders seeking funding, 1st question is "are you from stanford too?" 2nd question is "who's your professor?"
