Winter is Coming

"The Kingsguard do not run. Then or now. We swore a vow." "Jiang Wei ran to and fro slaying all he met till another heart spasm seized him,' Failed!' he shrieked,'but it is the will of Heaven.'He put an end to his own life" Romance of the Three Kingdoms "If you would take a man's life, you owe it to him to look him into his eyes and hear his final words. And if you cannot bear to do that, then perhaps the man does not deserve to die." Ned Stark

Random Thoughts
"My personal view is, our land is expensive. But we have nearby neighbours in Johore, Batam and Bintan. The elderly want to reach their doctors within half to one hour. So retirement villages in neighbouring countries is possible, barring the cross-border hassle. It is best to find cheap land on short leases," said Health Minister Khaw Boon Wan. ChannelNewsAsia

Ho shit...i cant believe Health Minister actually said that. For those who are confused by what the fuck he said....i can summarise it as this;

Basically, according to our dear health minister, since land is ex, it is better to have retirement villages in other countries. For the record, he said that during the GE of 2006.

It is ironic that singaporeans are condemned as ungrateful, while a glance at the above shows otherwise. After wasting 2 yrs of my life working for some fat arsehole or some other self impt pricks advance their careers, losing my jobs to foreigners because of reservist shit, getting my ass taxed over and over...and have to endure accusations by civil servants, their family members, the press of how ungrateful i am...i will get kicked to some village in a land not of my birth. So who is the ingrate now? The average citizen of singapore who is expected to give everything to his Company? Or the organisation who tramples on him and then goes on to repay his efforts by sticking him in another place not of his soil?
