Happy Lunar New Year


Every 12th year, I’m reminded that life is a series of rat races. You finished one race and then you start on another.  

Some people were fortunate to have had exited the mad rat race. I salute them!

I still dream of exiting the rat race one day.  

If you’re still in the race like me, push on and please “add more fuel” 加油! to speed up your journey. Go ahead and don’t wait for me. I’m falling far behind because my fuel-tank is already empty and my knee-joints are starting to feel the pain. Sigh!

Wishing all my friends:
Good Luck and A Very Happy Lunar New Year!

Bracing For Tougher Time Ahead!























It’s not about whether we can get the $5000-jobs, $7000-jobs or $10,000-jobs. The fact is there is none left as many PMET jobs have all been taken by FT. The big question is what ‘special skill sets these FTs have and locals don’t. How come it’s so easy for them to be here with their families and parents and crowd out our tiny island? 

Our ‘Big Bro & Big Sister’ refused to produce any real data on this topic when asked because the truth is probably sombre. 

When the going gets tough, the tough needs some motivators to keep going in our harsh, competitive and high-living-cost environment. Just bite the bullet!
