否极泰来 Piji Tailai

  English educated Singaporeans in trouble or our education in trouble? Does Lawrence Wong need a new foreign adviser? From Mideast to East Asai, even in the ASEAN region, some of his views seem “stupid, idiot and illogical”.  Saying something similar to Lee Hsien Loong may not have the same outcome. Lee is the son of the senior Lee. Don’t use our limited success to judge others. Don’t use our short history, culture to imagine the world. Don’t use our English educated mindset to assess the new international order.

  台湾当下现状，类似97前的香港，被掏空？ 97前，英国人掏空香港。 当下，美国人正在掏空台湾。 97后，英国一年不如一年； 美国是否也将步上英国，一年不如一年？ 风水轮流转，掏空别人，不务实工作，更加欠缺远见。历史的发展，竟然如此戏剧，巧夺强取500年，最终还是无法壮大自己。

  Stupid and Idiot, which one is more serious? Apology. One to the minister. One from the minister.  An apology in parliament because of a stupid question with purpose?   An apology in public because of an idiot comment from a typical mindset? Some would argue stupid question is more serious because he or she may lose his or her parliamentary seat. Some would argue that an idiot's comment is more serious because a minister is talking, especially a foreign city involved. Domestic versus international.   Anyway, the analogy and mindset may have been due to the PAP’s culture, education, monopoly in parliament… No minister has resigned because of stupid or idiot but corruption.   So, whether stupid or idiot, it will not affect a minister.  Really?   

  人在做，天在看？ 愚蠢问题？愚蠢的人？ 愚蠢人不准你说他愚蠢。 愚蠢人不满意你没有被套住。 愚蠢人的回答你必须接受；不能添油加醋。 原来，愚蠢是可以建立在霸权垄断上。 垄断为愚蠢开路，霸权为愚蠢装修。 民意法庭对上司法公正，是不是愚蠢的事？ 谁是愚蠢的人，谁在说愚蠢的事？ 立法经过国会通过，才成为司法的依据。 谁拥有国会的多数，尤其是三分二的绝对优势， 就成了立法的造王者，霸权垄断。 胜者为王，败者为寇？ 观其行，时间未到，风水轮流转？

  From casino to family office, Washing money or making money? Depreciating value or appreciating wealth? Creating jobs for the poor or  Adding more wealth for the rich?  Off balance redistribution and upgrading opportunities leading to Overpriced Singapore; Underpriced Singaporeans.

  后美国时代， 又是摸着石头过河的时候。 从美国独霸到多极世界，这段路要走多久才稳定下来？这段过渡，千变万化，局势不稳，过去让我们稳定、舒适繁荣日子，需要重新安排，只好摸着石头，一步一步适应。 摸着石头也适应于新加坡年轻人，他们的期待、焦虑、诉求、未来，如何安排，如何放心，建立信任？ 不过，黄循财认为，最难还是行动党的人事安排，如何确保，后继有人，继续迎合时代需求和满足年轻人。 这么多石头，如何选择、判断？未来的路，不论新加坡，还是行动党，如何找到适合的石头，而石头是不是一定在新加坡、行动党手中？

  Overpriced Singapore; Underpriced Singaporeans. This is the real SG60. What? We talk about sustainability, unity, progress, justice, and foreign interference…  Where are the Singapore dreams?  Are you in the group of overpriced Singapore or underpriced Singaporeans?
