Many of these Americans with Asian ethnicity seem to have some sort of misconception on the developing situation in US and are barking at the wrong tree. They assume the situation is simply moral in nature, i.e. a result of racial discrimination by the whites. What they fail to realize is the...

In short, you have no money, no talent in languages and want someone to teach you how to make risk free consistent money. If you seriously want to improve your financial well-being, the first thing you should learn is to not sit around and wait for magic money to fall out of nowhere.

Somehow Anwar feels like someone who still hasn't moved on from a spiritual opposition figurehead to a Prime Minister. He seems to be enamored with his old role which requires only making generic motherhood feel good statements without laying out any feasible policies and processes to implement...

The interesting observation is these dimension share a lot of similarities with business management principles that purportedly help companies attract, retain and motivate employees. It's like a mirror image of the same thing.

Unfortunately, he learnt nothing. If he did, he wouldn't be ranting online indulging in all sorts of Ah Q mental gymnastics to "prove" to everyone he is the ultimate winner.

This is to signal to Malaysians that his government will be "moving on", just a typical politician's way of politely telling voters that he does not intend to carry out election promises.

This is a very typical "loser" sort of mentality that I hope most of our young are not following. The guy was completely passive and basically adopting this attitude of "the company should pay me fairly automatically". There were so many opportunities in which he could have negotiated for...

There are a lot of such shenanigans going on, people who blatantly flout the rules by not even bothering to stay for a day are just the minority of dumb ones. Many more reside in grey areas - for e.g. many PMEs who buy a BTO but only stay there during the weekends as they stay with parents 5...

This Singaporean guy is also a moron. Instead of playing the legal game for the best outcome, he chose to punk around by engaging in cheap stunts. It's not surprising he lost his pants in the end.

The motivations of this OCBC study aside, I do find the expectation by youngsters to retire early in style quite prevalent amongst the people I know. 5k "passive income" by 40 seems to be a fashionable goal that is constantly thrown around these days. Naturally it isn't easy to accumulate so...

Yes indeed.. and it's not just benefits that they fear will be taken away but the entire organizational culture and social expectation of the employer-employee relationship that they have become accustomed to.

One of the things I noticed is that people who are ranting against Musks's "inhumane" policies are mainly from three groups: - Twitter ex-employees - General employees of big companies especially those in the tech industry or have progressive HR policies - HR professionals and people providing...

It's just modus operandi for most elected national leaders. Step 1: Shout "Death to China!" during election campaigning. Accuse incumbent of betraying the country and selling out to China. Step 2: If fail to get elected, end of story. If elected, start with a few bombastic rhetoric and...

Lotus Desaru is one of the worst beach resorts I've ever stayed in. Other than the compound being big with multiple pools, playground and sports facilities, the rooms are run down and service staff inadequately trained. The room I stayed in had a faulty air-con, filthy bath tub and barely...

Haha I see our good old SOS is still on the tracks of Nano Film. Anyway out of curiosity and abundance of time, I took a look at their leadership profile and one of the things that struck me as odd is the fact that though this Company brands itself as a leader in nano material sciences, other...

Why anyone would think all these Youtube videos are the key to unlocking greater wealth is beyond me. Most of these jokers behave in such a juvenile and crass manner that you don't even need to know any Finance to know that it's a bad idea to follow them.

Singapore media being tightly controlled is a well-known fact, but what I dislike is Bertha Hanson's blatant history revisionism and mischaracterization of the Singapore media in the past. From my own observation, the state media in the past during LKY & GCK times was even worse in terms of...

There is a tendency for people to like to hear stories about rich and famous people who in the past were poor and downtrodden, I guess it's inspirational and gives hope to people who are not doing well or living mediocre lives. However the real story is often not that dramatic. HK$1,700 salary...

I have little respect for people who play so called under the table games for years throughout their career, then when it no longer suits them (either successful enough or failed and got ejected out of the system) start to repackage themselves as whistleblowers, crusaders and/or victims by...

Looks like EU got further done in by either their own people or their good friend Uncle Sam.... Unlikely to be Ukraine as they don't have the capability to perform such a complex operation and definitely won't be Russia either as it can simply switch off gas anytime it wants anyway.
