Sure...I agree that for normal bi-lateral relationship, all agreements should be based on win-win, so if we take away something, we should give back something.

But I am  only talking about CECA specifically. Where is our win? Because if our public did gain from it, why are they so unhappy about CECA ?

Oh.. So that is what ccs is talking about.. Okay thanks.. 

 

That mean that time when come to agreement is win win situation.. But now the cracks could be found and it seems like not a good deal afterall. However because agreement already signed so have to horner it. Am I right to say that?

Just watched the debate.
 

I find that using statistics like median to illustrate income growth can skew the picture and sort of “mislead”

for eg: sample size of 5, monthly income

2018

1k, 2k, 5k, 8k, 10k. Median is 5k right?

2019

800, 1600, 5100, 7700, 9800. Median is 5.1k.
 

Statistically speaking, median income has grown, but on absolute numbers, everyone else’s suffered a drop. Does it mean that the people in general has earned more? No right.

 

I know this is overly simplistic but what I’m saying is statistics can be “manipulated” both ways to suit the agenda and wewe shouldn’t be led to believe things are ok when it actually may be not.

My side also the same, just hang the bag on the gate handle. Inside still say, we came to visit but you were not around. My wife was at home the whole day, nobody knock on the door and no doorbell too. So these ppl are ninjas??

I agree.

Thats why i will never look simply at plain statistics to draw a conclusion

not even for my financial “escapades”

Experts can predict all they want or like. 

Just like some MCFers in some threads.

But i can bet you, they will act differently when they have skin in the game where they need to put big money where their mouths are.

I thought all are the same, but, they are not.. Each carries a different message. Quite interesting.

this is maths 🙂 

for those people who don't appreciate or care about the difference from median and middle finger, median is a good measure lah.

Better than average I feel. It does show you how much the middle class income has benefited over the years without noise from the poor and rich.

What we should have is both median and standard deviation as the problem with median is that is does not really consider the extreme poor and the extreme rich. 

To be fair, the government publishes very detailed numbers for anyone who is interested. you cannot say they are not transparent. you can don't look at median if you don't want to

That was what I said a few days back doing away with live rally might backfire on the pap. On social media platform it take only a minutes for thousands news to spread. Such clip will be stored and reloop again.

Time to share the this hilarious tube to share with my WhatsApp group. 😁
