行善

昨天听康利说,中国有一个富豪,要去台湾做慈善。
怎么做呢?他会带一大把现钞,包成红包,然后所有需要的人,来排队,就可以领了。听好,是所有人,怎样鉴定哪些是有需要的人,我不知道。不过应该真的会有很多人吧。
我听完了,第一个感觉就是,[哇,怎么踩场踩到台湾去呢?太爱炫耀的啦,这些大陆人。台湾的富豪一定超级K到。]
今早刚好读到这位善心人士的报道,才发现我对他是完全误会了。他是坦荡荡的做善事,而且,在他还没真正富起来时,就已经在捐款了。
不过,因为他的行为是高调行善,所以引来很多人批评他这是“伪善”。不过,怎样都好,我是觉得,只要动机是对的,高调行善事没什么不对,可能这会感召更多人加入行列,一起行善。哪些批评的人,怎么自己没出来行善呢?高调行善,总好过让一群不肖子女在争家产(香港,台湾,澳门很多大家族),落人话柄。

[關於財富,陳光標用了這樣一個比喻——財富如水:「如果你有一杯水,你可以獨自享用;如果你有一桶水,你可以存放家中;但如果你有一條河,你就要學會與他人分享。作為一名企業家,我認為有責任和義務去回報社會。牢記恩情,為他人、為社會做些事情,這將是我人生最大的快樂和最明智的選擇。」]

分享一下这篇文章。一起向陈先生致敬,希望越来越多这样的人出现。

Life should be wonderful

If our lovely Najib, or all those YAB(Yang Amat Berhormat), really care about their citizen, wanna know what is their citizen's problem is, the best way they should do is, go take train, bus, or stand at bus station, listen to people gossip, know what people's concern now.

If I still at Malaysia, I will not have chance to take public transport everyday. But now I at Singapore, and do not have enough money to have a car, (car is a luxury here, for me), I had to spend around an hour everyday, taking bus, train, then bus again to reach office.

So I meet a lot of people everyday, listened to their conversation. And as expected, 90% of their conversation are more toward complaining. Complain about boss, colleagues, life, house-owner, etc. Ya, life is never perfect, and we have tons of reason to complain, when things turned against us. But there are so much of wonderful things happen everyday too. But people tend not to discuss about that, maybe complaining will bring sympathy from other people. People like to be comforted.

But, when u see teenagers, they are so happy normally. Chit-chat each other, playing around, talking about wonderful things, etc. We had time like them before, but since when we start to lose our sense of being happy, always look things at negative perspective, not considerable, etc? Life pressure changed us? I dunno.

Life should be wonderful. Being alive is already wonderful enough.

Work Life Balance

Time flies, Opps, I should say "rocketed" since start working. It had been 4 years working.

When looked back, how much things I had achieved for my 4 years in secondary schools, 4 years in University, but I hardly wrote out anything what I had achieved in 4 years time of working.

4 years in secondary school, I had my wonderful times in school, grew from a small young boy, too a matured teenager. Bulid life-long friendship with best friends, doing a lot of crazy/stupid things.

4 years in University, grew from a small kampung boy, to a hot-blood young man. Knowing how corrupt our country are, start care about others, etc. Build strong, good friendship with course-mates, while build my profession in career.

4 years working life, we got money, but in-exchange with our time. We had miss out so much of great things. Our life become machinery life, morning wake-up, go work, fight fight fight, at night back home, dinner, sleep. When schedule a meet up with friend, the schedule is by months. Even very close friend, we might meet up 6 months once, 1 years once. Everyone is busy.

So how to motivate ourselves during weekend, or maybe after work? If you work until 11pm everyday, you will slowly lost all your friend, because you are so hard to be invited, sooner or later, your friend will give up on you, and you had to spend your whole life in office.

Having a relax dinner with close friend helped. At least they remind you that, your life is not only work. You can talk about all things other than work, complaining to each other, talk about old sweet time.

Listen to some soft music. It helped to remind you that, you are not machine, you still have feel, you still know how to appreciate good music. My way of express thing is so terrible, and I guess nobody will able to feel what I wish to say now. Maybe is due to language, or maybe is due to I am really not a good writer. Just give me some times, I will improve.

NUS

Start study my postgraduate of Electronic Engineering at NUS. It is actually a Master of Science by coursework, so I just need to finish 10 module, by minimum CGPA 3.0.

The tuition fees is SGD 1990 / semester, and the is PR rate. For international student, I think the rate will be higher. So it depend how long you needed to complete it, for example, you take 2-3-2-3 course per semester, then you will need need 4 semester, but if you take 2 courses only per semester, then it would need 5 semester.

My classmate are mostly from India and China, most of them. Every year, NUS sponsored many scholarship for foreign student, mostly from China and India, to attract them to study at NUS. But they need to work at Singapore for > 3 years, after graduation, unless you can prove that you are unable to be employed.

According from my Singaporean friend, sometimes they felt like NUS is not build for them, but for all foreigner. In order to get into NUS, they either need to be high-flyer at JC (Junior College, A level, just like STPM at Malaysia), or they had to study at Singapore Polytechnic, and score a very high pointer. But for foreigner, the standard seems lower a bit. So it is not easy for Singaporean to get in to NUS, for those who get in, most of them are high-flyer during JC.

Sometimes I feel sorry about Singaporean, because the community is very competitive, and the government doesn't really have protective measure to protect them for all outsider. And they had to push themselves to be competitive, and this whole thing bring the small country up to 1st class country. So the government shape the people.
