Another Fallen (foreign) talent

[Beei]

if money was what attracted these people here in the first place, how loyal do you think they would be..

i know even though when i complain so much about singapore's stupid policy.. i will still rush back here to defend it if anything happen..

money can buy talents, but not loyalty

[Mzrmazda3]

It's like trying to buy medals........When the medals are won by FTs, somehow I do not feel a sense of pride. In fact, I feel rather embarrassed and ashamed.

 

Same thinking here ...

 

Unless the winner is a truly Singapo Nan else nothing to be proud of actually ...

[Mzrmazda3]

At the rate we are going, we must as well buy the medals instead of the talents.

 

[Mzrmazda3]

Right ...

[Nutty]

Singapore is already despised by fellow ASEAN countries for fielding FTs...

[Cheekg98]

they are jealous why singapore is so rich

[Albeniz]

We are simply too hard up for medals.

We need to learn how to let go of such cravings lest we look too desperate.

And some of the FTs after feasting enough here will 'Jump Ship' to another venue

The amount spend in recruiting FTs aren't cheap if i'm not wrong ...

Right ...

 

Then, my next million dollar question is:

What is the way to get loyalty?

[Beei]

many of these people just want a piece of the big pie.. look at how much the government will pay them if they win some medals.. siao..

to our government, talents only come from 2 places. Foreign countries and RJC..

[Slowmo]

because they never go NS right?

[Beei]

loyalty is from heart.. no other way to get it

[Tunge]

After sucking $$$ from the gahment by winning the monetary award for medals, it's time for Ah Dong to retire comfortably in China liao.

hmmm.... good theory.

[Nutty]

Can't blame them also.

 

 

If I am China born and is talented in some sports, and someone is bending down waiting for me to screw them, I might just do it.

 

Win some SEA games and Asian games medal. With some luck, maybe Olympic medals as well.

 

When I'm tired of all the training, I will take all the money back to China.(Probably in the region of millions if I won an Olympic Gold)

 

Buy some land, some houses, rent them out, make other people work for me while I am the boss. Sounds good...

[Slowmo]

alternatively, afraid of dope tests?

 

but all is just speculation ... maybe he has urgent things to attend to back home. just giving benefit of doubt.

[Nutty]

But very unprofessional of him to not even inform his employer.

 

furthermore, totally uncontactable.

[Slowmo]

there is a possibility of being withdrawn under duress... i don't know bro. would be an interesting drama if he turns out in another team at the sea games though.

 

think i watch too much HK serial.
