That is a pretty good indicator of the state of mental health of Singapore as a country.

Impossible, and fatal to the sanity of the poor souls forced into the Singapore straitjacket. <br /><br />That's why immigration is swamped in the scramble for the exit by Singapore citizens with more than 2 brain cells to rub together. That is why the island will forever be an also-ran in the creative stakes - condemned to scrape along on the droppings of more enlightened nations. And we're still failing miserably (Biopolis, Integrated 'Resorts', anybody?) despite uncounted billions of taxpayer's money being squandered in a vain attempt to pick/engineer a winning strategy. <br /><br />Can't do it without fearless, critical thinking, Mr. Lee. Soon, only the increasingly dumb and unimaginative will be left to kiss your behind.<br /><br />Switzerland of the Far East? I don't think so. Not when a Kim Peek or a Stephen Hawking would have been eliminated for being 'imperfect'.mycroftnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8081742307252789733.post-77157785145636391712009-12-22T22:42:37.663-08:002009-12-22T22:42:37.663-08:00I think what you described here is not schizophren...I think what you described here is not schizophrenia but split personality (aka Dissociative identity disorder or multiple personality disorder) instead. My friend is a schizophrenic.<br /><br />You have rightly pointed out that in singapore we live life in a dual personality way which is getting more and more suffocating each day.<br /><br />You know what I find most scary, it is the fact that some of us are ignorant that we are leading such a life and probably find nothing wrong with this kind of behaviour.<br /><br />Christmas is rounf the corner, so here's wishing you a Merry X'mas and a Happy New Year!jlowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16946756899231512947noreply@blogger.com
