Just my take.
We should count our blessing. We have a roof over our head, a good job (depend on how you look at it ) and able to indulge in our hobbies (expensive one compare to most people). We shouldn't complain about other luxuries products. We should complain there is not enough money put into pro-creation (I tot that is the number 1 problem to solve), not enough money put into childcare (fee very high), not enough money for the poor and needy (do we need so much reserve?),....etc
Safety is number 1 concern. The country is too big to control.
U think u can wear ur expensive wtch everywhere? Confirn kena robbed within 6 mths. U think ucan park ur bmw anywhere? Wait kena window smashed. U think ur wife n gf can just wear their diamon necklace everyday? Confirm kena snatched by bikers. Even if u have the money to buy luxury items u qouldnt because there is no occasion to wear it n too troublesome to worry about it.
Bro, i agreed with you on moving to MYsia may not be a good idea. However, I do not agree with these 2 statements.
"U think u can wear ur expensive wtch everywhere? Confirn kena robbed within 6 mths."
I have many MYsian frens wearing expensive watches and not all of them kena robbed within 6mths. To be honest, majority of them NEVER get robbed.
"U think ur wife n gf can just wear their diamon necklace everyday? Confirm kena snatched by bikers."
I have many MYsian female frens wearing their diamond neckalce everyday. None of them kena snatched by bikers.
M'sia very big, maybe some states/cities have higher crime then the others?
Or could be a matter of heng-sway, hehe.
What I am trying to put accross is... dun anyhow use "confirm" lah... if like that, all jewelly shops in MYsia can close liao.. no one dare to buy what...
Wat i am trying to say is if do the exact same way like u do in sg. U will get rob in malaysia.
In sg we can wear rolex, tt, full gold, pp without worry. Go geylang wear them also can. Ur wife wear big diamod ring n necklace everyday everywjere also can.
In malaysia im sure if u want to protect urself. U will think twice n reconsider before u make any decision. Like u will think where r u going today n if its too risky to wear tt or full gold to get attention. Or if its too risky for wife to wear diamond ring to shopping mall cus u may get followed back. Or mayb u think ok i will b in the car all the way till the office so its safe to wear full gold today just need to make sure i lock the car door so that i dun get robbed stopping at traffic light etc
Sg police dares to use the slogan 'low crime doesnt mean no crime'. In malaysia yhe police face thick thick say malaysia is 1 of the safest places in the world n crime rate is dropping. Bull**** loh
N ppl still buy gold from jewellery shop but guess wat? After buy will keep in bank safe directly n Only take out to wear during big occassions. U r actually also taking the risk of getting robbed after u buy alot of jewellery cus ppl may mark u from outside. In sg i can just keep in my room.
If u read malaysian newspaper u will know the robbery is ridiculous n the way they do it is also ridiculous. Youtube stomp have abit too nowadays
To treat the ailment, you have to first treat the root.
I think we the citizens are the root of most problems.
FT issue largely stemmed from the lack of talents or the choice of jobs we deem as ideal. If i own a company, i would most prob employ all foreigners if i had the option to. Cheaper, less complaints, mostly more dilligent, and specifically from certain countries, more value for money in ratio to the degrees they hold. We are just too choosy and fussy most of the time.
It really depends on how one views issue/things.
Phrases like these are not formed without grounds; to eliminate a gang, catch its leader first (擒贼先擒王), a crooked top yields jerky bottom (上梁不正下梁歪).
And I think Singapore do has talents and potential that are overlooked.
