Sinkies lack motivation
Don’t laugh, this is true. And this is the reason why they are not keen to take on low paying jobs. How could they? How could they survive when a HDB flat cost several hundred thousand dollars, a car also cost a hundred thousand and 3 meals a day cost $15! And there is public transportation cost as well. So how to motivate them to accept lower paying jobs? Some may find it cheaper just to stay at home and live with their parents.
Money can fail to motivate when it is too little or not enough. And this can be relative and can also be real. A young adult will need a thousand dollars to get by a month not counting housing and household expenses. Anything less is just not enough. Would he be motivated to work for $1k pm or would he be motivated to work for $2k pm when the cost of living is so high?
At the other extreme, someone earning $30k pm, would he be motivated to change job that pays him $31k, and worst, when the heart is not in the new job, when there is simply no interest for the new job? Maybe try doubling the amount like $60k and throw in more perks for someone who is not interested but can be bought over. The excessively high offer could extract some interest for a while but not for along as money, like drugs, need to be increased in dosage to acquire the same effect as before. That means more money will be needed tomorrow, next month and next year to keep the employee interested.
This money and motivation problem could be seen among the gods. Look up into the clouds and it is not unusual to see the gods feeling down. Why should they be made to do things they are not interested when they were happy in what they were doing before? And offering them money, how much and how much more, and how much longer before they feel jaded again?
Is this the problem facing our political leadership? Putting square pegs into round holes and holding them there by plastering them with more money and more money? It is definitely easier and less costly to motivate someone earning $2k with a $20k job. He would work 24 hours for it and never feel tired. What effect would it be to offer someone $50k when the person is already getting $50k and to do something he does not like? Yes very costly and very ineffective.
Party time for Sinkies
The Trojan Horse is in the city. Let’s party. Sinkies are entering an enjoying the golden years. Prosperity is everywhere. Practically every other Sinkie is a millionaire or multi millionaire. Open the champagne, lay out the tables with good food and wine and everyone should go celebrate, have a good time.
There is no time to waste in whinning and kpkb. Enjoy while you can. Enjoy while it lasts. Pray the party never ends. Pray the night does not fall. There will be no hangovers the morning after. Sinkies will not remember when the party ends.
For those who are able and smarter, it is the time to grab as much as they could before the curtain comes down.
The ugly Japanese revealing their true colour
After the defeat in WW2, the Japanese took on a new persona, of efficient and meticulous businessmen and were very successful in that. They rebuilt their war torn and devastated country into a new modern and industrial economy. They travelled the world, invested in every country with their new found wealth, and wore impeccable business suits. And with the help of Hollywood’s romancing of the honourable samurai cult, they were projected as decent, well mannered and honourable people.
In a short span of 40/50 years, the cruel, barbaric and brutal soldiers that invaded practically every Asian country, plundered, raped and looted and killing their victims, pregnant women, the olds and the babies, in the most despicable and vicious ways, were changed. The silly Asians and the Westerners painted a wholesome and new image of an honourable and dignified people. And many believe so, especially the bananas.
The current dispute with China and Korea on some Chinese and Korean islands is like a rekindling and revisiting of the times of militaristic Japan, all might and arrogance. They were the most powerful Asian country then and took advantage of their military superiority to invade Asian countries, to conquer and to seize their wealth and land. Dokdo, Ryukyus, Diaoyus and Taiwan etc etc were lost to the Japanese by the logic of the gun.
And the countries are reclaiming their islands but facing the militant Japanese with their logic of the gun once again. The Japanese plainly insisted that these islands were theirs historically and refused to acknowledge how they were acquired by force. They still believe that if they carry a big gun, they could steal other country’s land as their own. And they will have their believers and sympathisers from the victim countries. And the Japanese also have the evil American Empire on their side, acting innocently claiming not to take sides by not standing on the side of logic and historical rights. The treacherous Americans even included the Diaoyu/Senkaku under the American Japan Defence Treaty.
And many silly Asian bananas would naively say that it was history, no need to fight over a few pieces of uninhabited islands. Why don’t they tell the robbers to lay off, no need to continue to insist that the islands they stole should be returned to the rightful owners?
The robber and gangster’s mentality of reasoning is very simple. They already have the loot in their pockets and would tell all the victim parties not to stir shit or revive history. Why should they when they are the gainers of other people’s land? So the victims who lost their land are seen as trouble makers, quarrelsome and not wanting to let the past be the past.
And the robbers and gangsters are standing on high pedestal as peaceful robbers and gangsters. The victims have no right to claim back what they have lost to the robbers and gangsters. This is the ugly Japanese of the past surfacing in the present, that might is right. Did anyone say the Japanese are honourable or dignified? They could think so by ignoring that the Japanese had raped, killed and looted their countries and do not feel any remorse about it. These are the type of losers that would be easy to rape and loot and to conquer. They will not resist and will fall in love with the dignity and honour of their violators.
PS. The Japanese are demanding the Russians to return the four islands taken from them in the same period of history.
China is again facing the danger of foreign aggression
China is again facing the danger of foreign aggression. War clouds are hovering in the horizon. This time the danger comes from the Evil Empire, US whic h is instigating and encouraging its colonial lap dog the Japanese to steal Chinese lands and territorial seas. The Evil Empire , US may create any incident to start a war with China either directly by itself or through its proxies like the Japs or the Pinoy vermins or Vietnamese rats.Whatever it is, China and every Chinese must be very vigilant and be constantly aware that the only true protection, safeguard and guarantee for Chinese peace and security is that China must have the strongest economy and most powerful military in the world, for without which China may suffer again as happened in the last century. China should not play the gentleman anymore. China should adopt a forward policy, be fiercer and more aggressive to attack and destroy all potential enemies and if necessary to recover all territories stolen by foreign aggressors in the last century.
Singapore claims that it does not lean on China or the Evil Empire. But Singapore is now a military base in which the Evil Empire operates its navy and airforce in and out freely . If the Evil Empire,US out of economic and financial desperation starts a war with China, will Singapore still allow the Evil Empire to operate its navy and airforce freely in Singapore or will Singapore put a complete stop to the evil activities of the Evil Empire. The government should not expose Singapore and Singaporeans to the danger of nuclear annihilation and hence it should forthwith put a stop to US naval and airforce operations out of Singapore.

China should take the US to ICJ for CBT
After the defeat of Japan
in WW2, the leaders of the Allied Forces, Roosevelt, Stalin, Churchill and
Chiang Kai Shek, stripped Japan
of all the territories it robbed from it neighbouring countries. The Ryukyu
Islands and Diaoyu Islands
were handed to the Americans to hold in trust for China.
All the leaders in Cairo and Potsdam
were in no doubt that the islands belonged to China.
Chiang Kai Shek was caught in a civil war with Mao Tse Tung and had his hands
full.
The Ryukyus and Diaoyu
Islands were held under the
trusteeship of the US
in the Treaty of San Francisco in 1951. By then China
became the People’s Republic under communist rule, followed by the Korean War
and the Cold War.
The treacherous Americans then handed the administration of
the Ryukyus and Diaoyu Islands
to the Japanese unilaterally for its own political agenda an interest in 1971.
It did not have the right to do so as the Islands were
Chinese territories. While China
and Japan are now
at loggerheads fighting to claim the islands, both have forgotten the
disgraceful act of the Americans in failing in its duty as trustees of the
islands and for handing the islands to the Japanese, doing exactly opposite to
what were agreed in the Cairo and
Potsdam Declaration and the Treaty of San Francisco.
This is a breach of faith, a breach of trust. And the
Americans conveniently forgot about their shameful act and acting as if nothing
had happened and pretending to be the peace broker. China
should take the Americans to the International Court of Justice for failing in
its international duty as trustees of the islands. China
should also raise this dubious act of the Americans in the UNGA and demand the
Americans to recover the islands and return them to China
as they were trusted to do so by the Allies.
The Americans and the western media would not want to
mention about the shameful and evil acts of the Americans. Today, with
internet, it is only fair to expose the misdeeds and treachery of the Americans
to give the masses a more balance view of what this evil Empire did and stood
for.
No doubt the Americans had also did some good. This is the
pattern of historical empires. They would first rape, kill and loot and destroy
their victims. Next will come a phase of generosity, to help their victims. See
what is happening in Iraq
and the Arab countries? After the murders and the bombing, came the aid, the
saviours, the angels and the white gods. What about the crimes they committed
against the innocent children, the womenfolks, the oldies and the rest of
humanity?
America,
like all empires, has entered the last evil phase, a phase when it will do
anything to hold on to its power. This is the last phase and will lead to its
own destruction and the rise of new powers to replace this evil Empire. No, the
Americans cannot see that they are evil. Neither can their allies and the world
until it is too late. The halo of goodness is still staining the conventional
view that the Americans are angels of God.
