So far we have discussed grades as a largely product of good earnings which lead to material
ReplyDeletewealth which than lead to happiness. But is that so? People in affluent societies suffer from
alienation and meaninglessness despite their prosperity. What is happiness? Is it having
good grades, money or family and perhaps virtue. Less-well-to-do find contentment in
religion, bond with nature, community?
Some find happiness in how they feel inside, like those "volunteers" who came out of their
kindness to help in the search for the missing teen in Malaysia. The men who work
tirelessly in searching the two missing kayakers. Surprisingly theses are people from a
less-develop country. These are people with no good grades? What kind of humanity this
country chose to breed and a government who preaches how some from poor families make
good by studying hard.
We also have selfless people the grab delivery chap Mohammed. Nid more such people rather than pointing mid finger and F**king the Chinese.
ReplyDeleteIf we keep churning grads, the population will felt that they are over qualify for jobs. Why this country have bring in foreign labour because most had good working attitude and hands experience.
