Our Dear Mentor... - 11:06 PM
Our Dear Mentor, MM Lee KY is such a brillant man. I do sincerely admire him in a way, that somehow Singapore turn from a fishing village to a well advance state of today, standing amonst power nations like USA and Japan. Well some may agree, some may disagree with this man's capabilities or achievements, Singapore did indeed turn into what we are today. Crocodile tears shed 40 over years back? I think any tear shed that brings success is a tear well shed.Well why the sudden mention bout our beloved MM? I saw the papers this morning about his mention about China. How they use their weight to "push" pressure on us. Though they alway say all countries are equal, regardless big or small. But when they dun see eye to eye with Singapore, they say "1.3 billion people are very unhappy". This reminds us a fact, 4 million do not equal to 1.3 billion. So at the end of the day, come countires are still big, some are well, still small.
Also read from my company's website that he joined us as a special advisor. Well thats good news for all of us at Citi, though I would not see how that would directly affect me unless my bonus jumps 3 fold. Well thats a dream that nwill never come through. But hey, didnt they sing this famous song, "There was a time, when people say Singapore won't make it, but we did..." Hmmm. Keeping my fingers cross.
Lastly, my taxi driver today was so proud of Singapore. He also like our MM alot. He narrated an Indian friend telling him this:"In India, we have everything. We have Jewel, oil, and.... but we dont have one thing. We dont have Lee Kuan Yew.
Well next lets vent our anger on Singtel and Starhub. Me and my shifu life has been tormented by these 2 idiotic company who wanted to go through capital reduction lately but cant decide their mind as to who is eligible. Well maybe its not their fault, but who else can I blame? Guys out there, pls support M1 who has been the most obedient kid in town.
They will add to my hate list to companies who should be bombed. Ok in case people start to link this to terrorist act, this is pure fun and entertainment, from the writer's figment.
List of companies I wana bomb:
1. HSBC - torments me with 300 plus customers every quarter and the number is increasing as I am typing....
2. Suntec - OK, infact all the REITS comapnies, but being their 'leader', lets give severe warning to others
3. Microsoft - 160 clients, troublesome for every month recon, trouble when they decide to have a stupid dutch auction
4&5. Singtel and StarHub - both sucks equally. Why am I holding a Singtel line?
Well I guess the list can go on. So maybe comapnies can stop having corporate actions. Hmmm that would put me out of job. Ok, let them have simple CA next time. Lets wish upon a star tonight. Wish....
