No talent Singapore must be kinder with its limited talents, gold plated talents and fake talents. No matter how good a talent is, he is bound to say something stupid or do something stupid once in a while... unless he is God the knows all. Even God made the mistake of creating evil man and had to restart all over again by killing all man with his Great Flood.
Singapore was lucky to have real talents during its formative years to build a solid system, reputation and governance that can carry it through bad times and living well with limited talents, gold plated talents and fake talents. But no matter how good the system and reputation and good governance, half past six talents will be exposed over time, and fake talents will, if lucky, dig a big hole that can still be patched up.
Singapore must be kinder with its talents and not too harsh when they make mistakes or say nothing silly. If Singapore is so unforgiving and hasty to get rid of its talents at the slightest infringement or mistake, very soon it will be left with no real talents, except half past six talents and fake talents.
And where do you think the fake talents come from? New citizens with many unknowns and fake qualifications and credentials. Singapore is still lying that the fake talents are real talents when they are everywhere taking over jobs from Singaporeans. Barely are they caught and that speaks volumes on enforcement and protecting Singaporeans' interests. And if Singapore cast aside all its talents that made the slightest mistakes, then it will be natural for the fake talents to take over their positions. The half past six talents is no match to the fake talents for sure. The fact that fake talents are in positions of power, authority and in high places is vindication that they are superior in their ways to outwit the talents that put there.
If Singapore is not careful and think it has a deep pool of talents to fall back on, presumably falling back on imported fake talents, then Singapore will soon be taken over by fake talents. When limited talents are still sitting on top of half past six talents and fake talents, the system may still function under some form of auto pilots. But when fake talents sit on top of half past six talents and more fake talents, no need to predict the outcome. Gravity will take over.
There are not many Singaporean talents out there for Singapore to depend on. Be kinder to the fallen or about to fall Singaporean talents.

What is "talent", or what kind of "talent" we talking about? We do have many talent here in sinkieland. We have MP who can lie in parLeement yet nothing happen to her but her boss kana whack left right centre. We have people who use other people money to invest & never loose their pants but instead make themselves to be multi-millionaire. And of course we also have people who become multi-millionaire by selling their house and rent G gcb to live in, how smart is that. The most talented one is the one who can give out voucher every year to reduce cost of living.
I am quite confused with so many categories of talents in Singapore - gold plated talents, limited talents, half past six talents, fake talents, talents with fake certificates.
I thought Donald Rumsfeld was confusing enough talking about 'known knowns', 'unknown knowns', 'known unknowns' and 'unknown unknowns'. The English language is really being tortured to death.
The best talents are those with fake degrees but can convinced super talents to hire them. And when found out, super talents would say, can do the job good enough, no need degrees.
