Nation Builders Still Working
Quoted from the site:
The wealth generated by Singapore’s much-touted economic success story has not benefited everyone, least of all its senior citizens, a.k.a. the nation builders. Filmed on the streets and back-alleys of downtown Singapore in July 2007, this video does not contain any enactments or acting. Directed, shot and edited by Martyn See
$0.13 multiply by 13kg > $10… the old woman is better in math than the director, prove that even as they should rest and reap the reward of their life long labour already, they are still capable of doing more.
I’m sure different people draw different conclusion from this. My conclusion is that this is entirely shaped not by chance (like everything else here) but by explicit policies that promote competition and job creation, and all men for himself (i.e. you’re responsible for your own welfare). Social welfare states would find it hard to understand. So yes, there are jobs, some 3 million some 13 cents. Retirement? What retirement? “Retire and die!” Heard before?
Sigh, I’m so far from it – broadband as an equalizer … how to reach this far an end? I can’t even “home-shore” jobs for them coz they don’t have a home! :'(
