Watwheels Supersonic May 13, 2010 Share May 13, 2010 What was the topic on the interview anyway? Seems like his comments were taken out of context. If the marketing executives dun exploit this weakness, their product sales will move very slowly. Some ppl are gullible anyways. Just look at the number of scammers and conman and the number of ppl kenna con by them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seaweed 1st Gear May 13, 2010 Share May 13, 2010 I think we probably get it wrong... 'useless applications' for Apple's products as 'gullible customers'. First, it is true that some application are really useless. So when we buy a useless application...I think it is true that we are likely to be gullible customer...this apply to all product and not just Apple.... Second, he is just a human being. He will of course think and talk base on his personal perspective. No doubt in a public speech as a civil servant. We should always put others in front of ourself. As long as he never say believe in god....else you will go to hell....ha ha ha....I think ok lar.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SimonTan 2nd Gear May 13, 2010 Share May 13, 2010 Popping bubbles might be useless to many. But it might help the old and dementia to pass time while alone at home. You know those Farmville and online games are also wasting time for many of us....but for those who are unemployed or stroke victim, it might help them to pass time and give them some purpose in life. I suspect that paying $30k for a piece of COE is a gullible thing to do. Maybe to many serving NS is also a gullible thing pushed on citizens, whereas those PR and FT can have a safe Singapore to make their money, while citizens wasted 2 years for being gullible!

Don't know what the big hoohaa is about. the thing is he is from the think tank, if he simply call those apps unless or people getting the app stupid, that discourage innovation which is what he is suppose to do, take SG companies into the world.... if the app is unless which APPLE is putting on their platform, then no one would want to try anything here liao... he talk so much about you need a boss to be able to tolerate your crazy idea and let you do what you want, yet he discourage people here and there...

See, you need : 1st rate Elite, 2nd rate Elite, 3rd rate Elite, Super Intelligent, Intelligent, quite Intelligent, FTs, Smart, quite Smart, quite Smart but unlucky, Not so Smart, Average Joe and Low passable IQ people in Singapore. Therefore, the Secular World needs this Class system to run a country successfully. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
