A story from long long ago

Once upon a time (all stories starts like that, dunno why..) there was this country in a far away land. This country made up of people from different tribes. Each tribes had different believes and religion but everything was well at first. Since 60% of the people in this country believes in one religion called the M religion, thus after sometimes, this country was ruled by the M religious law. Everything was still well at this point of time.

As the world during that time started to change and improved, this country didnt want to lose and wanted to improve as well. The goberment of this country wanted to impress the world and didnt want to lose face but at the same time, doesnt want to make any changes. So the smart and intelligent goberment came up with ideas as such to improve this country.

Attract more foreign investment. If people from other country invest in this country, economy will grows. But at the same time, religious law still applies for all foreign investment. All foreign investment must hire employees made up of the people from M religion. If you dont hire, you cant invest in this country. Yes, this country stands strong for its religion. The intelligent goberment believes this plan will work eventhough the people frm this religion are either dumb, stupid or lazy. Yes, this plan will work.

Somehow or another, to make the country prosper, the gap between the rich and the poor must not be too far apart, else riot and unstablelization will occur. So smart of the goberment from this country to realize that. As this country was run by the 60% of people who prayed to the M religion which are dumb, stupid and lazy, thus people from other tribes that are rich must help out with these people. If you are M believers, you have discounts whether you wanna buy car, house, business or whatever investment you want to do. The goberment will help and you do not need to pay as much as the OTHERS. As for the OTHERS, pay the fucked up for everything that you need. Yes, this law will work.

Build SHRINE to unite the M people. Broadcast the prayers from the SHRINE 5 times a day, even as early as 5am in the morning. Tell all the tribes in this country that M people are people and the rest of the tribes are considered as OTHERS. This law will unite them all.

Promote tourism. Get people from all around the world to visit this country. BUT, all efforts in promoting must go according to the M religious law. So a classic example is to hold out a concert by famous artist from all over the world in this country. But all the artist from all over the world MUST follow the M religious law in order to perform in this country. The clothes they wear must not reveal skins, you cant get sponsors from alcoholic company and such. Yes, the goberment from this country strongly believes such promotions worked.

For this country to prosper, there must be no corruption. All goberment workers that consists of people from M religious strongly agrees to it. So, in order for the goberment to help the OTHERS, the OTHERS must HELP them first. This is not corruption and unity makes all WONDERS worked.

Promote education. But goberment education are only reserved for M people. OTHERS please search other alternatives else-where. When you, the OTHERS have completed your education else-where, you the OTHERS are expected to return and serve this country.

Last but not least, pray. This is a religious country afterall. All M religions people believes and stand strong for their God. But robbery, stealing, raping and even incest cases are made up from this people. But its okay, its acceptable although the crime rate in this country is high. Thats because they have pray to their God and they are forgiven. This country will still continue to prosper.

Hence, with such competent goberment and the people so unite, how can this country not prosper. End of story.

Above story is adapted from a fairy tales that are passed down in schools library.

Life is fair... my arse!!

Have you ever wondered why the world is so unfair? Some people are born filthy rich, have everything within their grasp. Just say the word and the world are theirs for their holding. Some worked hard, slogged all their life but cant even afford a coffin when they are dead. Worse still, some 3rd world countries citizen are even willing to trade ten years of their life span in exchange of a decent meal. Sad but truth.. this is the world that we are living in where utopia and equality are just further than happy-endings fairy-tales

Some people like it, some people detest it to the core. So what about you? Do you think life is fair for you? Ever wondered why you have slogged so hard and why the hell you are still fighting like a front line soldier to survive till the end of the month.. praying for the next paycheck to lift you up from the grave?

If you ask me, life is just not about fairness. Fairness just doesnt exists. Look around you, observe hard.. and viola, i have prove my point. However, i do notice something valuable during the journey of life. Life is not about fairness, life is about choices. Its the choices, big or small that we make in life that causes the difference. If we choose to be poor, we will. However, if being poor is a sin to you, you will eventually become rich if you really choose to. I refuse, just strongly refuse to allow myself to have the mentality of the poor and average class. Not that i am any richer today than yesterday, but i just refuse to settle down for normal and average life. Setbacks, disspointment, dissatisfaction are just emotions to push me further. All these factors will eventually grow into experience. And experience and knowledge are the factors essential to accumulate wealth.

Recently, I have read a book on investment. In the book, the 90/10 theory is written. According to the author, 90% of the wealth in this world are controlled by only 10% of the population. So in other words, the other 90% of the population, namely you and me, and other poor fuckers and middle classes, are sharing the merely "leftover" 10% of wealth. How truth it is, observe the people around you. Fuck, no wonder we are damn freaking poor. Well, its ok. The point is, wealth is everywhere. How well you gather your wealth depends on just how well you utilized the fucking brain of yours. Just remember the golden rules, theres no such thing as fairness and equality. Ciaoz~
