basically, sillypore imports these foreign clowns who speak jibberish due to the amt of research papers they (ntu / nus) is able to milk from these cows. (chinese / indian profs and what not, who falls under the catergory of cheap, good, nice)
my prof from israel who taught at ntu for a while has long fled back to his country, another viet cong prof has used our place as a stepping stone to states...
it's unlikely the white men prof will come to sillypore, unless we bundle with them the usual 'post-colonial' package which gives them differential benefits and what not.
(yes, we like all other asian countries... korea, japan, taiwan, china, still suffer from the Man Friday syndrome)
in the most holistic sense, each school at every level of the education institution is to serve and deliver to the students an education which would heighten and enrich their minds and skill set.
however, i know that as a product of the local sillypore system, where streaming (discrimination) starts at an early age (i.e 12 yrs old, PSLE) where u would be labelled, Talent / Special Scheme (RI Pedigree Route), Express Scheme (normal route which shows u are not smart enough or dumb enough) and Normal Scheme (Sorry to say this, but this is the consensus and feedback from the society, Normal Scheme is simply a better name for Condemned ... for life)
,
someone like Albert Elnstein would as we know, fall into the Normal Scheme, as he was a serious late developer in life, whereby his brilliance was only uncovered when he was in uni and as a clerk in the patents office.
where does this lead us to?
singapore mainstream education continues to be elitist whereby u breed clowns who are presidents of table tennis clubs whereby they have no inking or relevant experience to the said activity (in this case, table tennis) or u breed plump, unattractive daughters of heartland Member of Parliament (who with her years of education in sillypore's privilege would tell you in exact words " please, get out of my elite uncaring face.")
do the people in top know about it?
of course, what do you think???
that's why they only send their kids to ivy leagues while they set up an alternative 'ivy league' for the peasants here and try to do a PR show that we, sillypore is the place to be for the 'ivy league' of the east (that's was the propaganda campaign then from 98-2001)... ST named us the Boston of the East... haha, what a joke, please don't insult my intelligence...
anyway, yes, the foreign clowns they placed in the national uni are basically bought over to be milk for the quantity of research paper, as there is an international standard whereby the ranking of uni internationally is ranked upon by the quantity of research papers those cows write (no wonder, it's not a hard and fast rule that they need to speak a human language, as their job is just to moo and write)
one wonders, how about the quality of research paper? surely, quality is more important than quantity.
err. to answer that question, the quality ones go on to win noble prizes in their relevant fields of research.
but it brings us back to the question...
how are we going to have any quality researchers from our own local system, since we would have placed someone like albert einstein in a normal stream education and condemn him to ITE?
with a sense of buddha-like enlightenment... i realised...
no wonder we need to import professors from overseas, where we buy those that are cheaper...
what an interesting world we live in...
