Foreign scholars - Bad meat bad broth

A piece of bad meat in a broth will turn everything in the pot bad. The Sun Xu incident is gonna turn the batch of scholars around him feeling sour despite the scholarship and opportunities given to them for a good foreign education in a world class university in a world class country.

Sun Xu is unlikely to feel good about the experience. He has shown to be quite an ingrate to rubbish the people of a country over a few stares by a few rude oldies, probably the illiterate type. His close scholar friends would likely be rubbed the wrong way and feeling uncomfortable with the whole issue. And so would other scholars who empathize with his plight.

The broth and meat have to be thrown away, including the millions spent on the whole batch of scholars. One bad apple is enough to affect the whole basket of apples. What a waste of money.

  3. Alamak redbean, relac lah. The guy has already said it is a "small matter" -- at least to him. And it is a very small matter.

    People are jealous because this fellow is quite a smart fucker and high achiever. Schlumberger is a great company to work for, and is the envy of many engineering students.

    Cancel his scholarchip? For what? What did this guy do wrong? What law/ rule/ contractual obligation did he break or violate?

    redbean, don't be so mean lah. You want "good students" but you don't want them to express freely?

    You are as bad as that dead motherfucker Toh Chin Chye...who was Asshole El Supremo at University of Singapore.

  4. I am just talking about this batch of broth. I am not asking to take back his scholarship.

    The point is that you got a bright young man whom you offer money and a bright future and he made that kind of juvenile comments and could not see what is wrong with it is very disappointing.

    With his intellect, he cannot be accused of being naive or childish. It is in the character of the person.

  5. Give to this type of foreign talent ... no problem.

    Give to fellow Singaporeans ... cannot ... will create welfare mentality ... Singapore will sure die.

    GE 2016.
    I will put in my vote for Singapore and fellow Singaporeans.
    Guess which party will surely get my vote?

  6. It is amusing to see redbean talk about "character".

    What kind of "character" is he for making a bug deal out of a small issue -- in this case, the wild, chee-bai mouth of youth?

    So much for redbean's stance on "free speech". The guy was just expressing himself.

    Tell me, a fellow Singaporean who is not offended, why the fuck should he apologise, or why he should be thrown out -- i.e. like "bad meat"?

    Go on. Impress me.

  7. redbean's conditional standards: No juvenile comments allowed from seemingly "intelligent" people.
