Can ask this fellow to define:


"Tiger Tiger burning bright
Watching you is sheer delight"
You too were a shining light
Now you're simply out of sight.

As u sit there in the night
Thinking 'bout your current plight
Don't expect u to start a fight
And face the horrid oldman's might.

Despite advantage in height
The wooden one, was once his slight
Even in your mutual blight
You would forgive the unkind spite.

U aimed to be whiter than white
And everything u did was right
It's a good thing all were tight
And the people, not so bright.

Perhaps now's the time for some respite
Maybe pause for a small bite
Even if u're not contrite
What on earth is tripartite?

As u ponder your own fright
Thinking when to time your flight
It's clear u will not put things right
Perhaps better go fly a kite.

Do you understand GDP?
These people park and spend their money, not work here. So how can they be part of production?

If they put their money in the banks, won't the banks use this to make money? If they are spending some money here, wouldn't someone be earning that money and contributing to GDP?
Do you understand GDP and how GDP is derived?

BS, you un-blur on wealth parked here (ill gotten gains?):p Also, Mynmar army top guns are well ensconced in Sentosa Cove. Speak of bare xmas tree back home in land of Shwe Dagon.

And to add to yours on labour productivity: How many blokes needed to fix light bulb? I bangla up, with another ah neh downstairs holding the fort below. Throw in 1 supervisor, smoking away in pickup nearby watching the proceedings.

In OZ, you get driver cum-tourist guide rolled into 1 (with PA system). In these parts, you have the obligatory tour guide standing up and holding on to front seat

Bro yinyang,

Thanks for the compliment. It is not that I am un-blur about what is going on. It is more like that 60% refuse to accept reality.

Yes, in recent years, those Rangoon mafias have been splashing on our shore in a big way. Perhaps it has some connections with that ex 超级白 minister Yeo CT & his wife Helen. That is yet another story.

As for the skill level of the folks in SG vs that of those in Oz, I can't help but feel that the main cause for the low skill set of the workers in SG could be attributed to the 超级白. As the 超级白 continued to bring wages down relative to other factors of production thru massive import of foreign workers, there is little or no real incentive for workers in SG to really upgrade themselves.

Think about it this way. If you are one of those guys, would you upgrade yourself for the miserable few dollars? Not worth it right? And when one's pay gets higher, the chances of getting replaced by a cheaper FT become increasingly higher.

In Oz, the skill / pay structure is very different. Every skill set earned, one's pay will be adjusted accordingly. I am talking about the tradies (those blue collar boys). Thus there is an encouragement for one to continue upgrade and update himself as an employee. And they have little worry about getting replaced by a cheap FT. Just take a look at the average Oz electrician's (re your example of changing bulb) pay:

Average Salary Avg. Min Avg. Max

Jul - Sep 2012 $86,768.58$78,410.22$95,126.95 *

Oz Electirical Salary Centre.jpg


Following the argument above, can we then say that the root cause of the low productivity is mainly due to the 超级白?

It is my general belief that people are the same everywhere one go. There are good, bad and the ugly. It is the relative amount that makes the difference.

In SG's blue collar worker, it is the environment created by those 超级白 have resulted in the low skill set the workers have.

I am not talking about those hopeless and useless course that were recommended by the PA and what not. I am talking about real upgrade in core job skill. There is a huge different between the two. The SG style is more to wayang. The Oz style is more to enhance the productivity level of the individual.

60% daft refuse to see or choose not to see who really cause them the pain they have to put up with. What to do? It is really sad. 60% refuse to accept reality indeed.

* For those who kept saying that Oz have high taxes, who have a higher take home after tax? SG electricians or Oz electricians?

You can't blame them, they have been spoon-fed since young. For them, living in Australia will be 'bad' because they have to do everything themselves. No mummy, no maid, no daddy's money, they really have to be independent. They are too used to the Singapore nanny system, government does everything for you, govt protects women with law without them laying a finger, government gives out cash divdends to you and more. Not like Australia, you might have to build your own house, searching for houses not as easy as searching for HDB and the MP in Australia is never going to entertain the requests of placing in good school or any others. Naturally, they left. Only the tough and independent nuts stay and eke out a living.

"They are too used to the Singapore nanny system" - Can we put the blame on the 超级白 again for creating such environment?

And BTW, giving out cash dividends are all yours to begin with. All your blood sweat money. What more with the impeccable timing to tie it with election period. :mad:

As for spoon-feeding in Singapore, yes, that is the environment and perhaps even cultural. 60 years of MIW has brought up an environment and reliance on a one party country. There are no alternatives, no requirements to think of anything else. Just follow and do what you are told and you will be fine. The question becomes, how do I know what you say is correct in the first place? Why can't I explore and find out if it is true or not? Hence the common saying in Singapore, the price of failure is too great. To be independent you have to face the consequences of failure. To be able to accept that what you are doing maybe wrong and climb out of it when it does. I must say, being able to find my house, watch it get build day by day is a pretty exhilarating experience.

Bro Ash, thanks for sharing your views. The 超级白 is responsible for the type of Sinkie behaviour Singaporeans exhibit.

Yes, I've seen my house getting build as well. 3-4 man crew at most each doing a specific task from laying of foundation, to wooden beams, roof tiles. Having a small crew doesn't mean the quality is going to be bad, it just means its more efficient.

Bro Ash, one day... one day I must meet up with you in Sydney. :smile:

BTW, where is your new house? Can give some details like land size, built up area and cost? Thanks.

Let people like Kanina feel jealous. Ha ha.
