This blogger thing sucks... I cant write my title... and my old blog is gone forever... Google didnt even email me back regarding giving me my blog back. Boo to that.

But on the other hand.. I read the news today.. I have a good feeling about finding a good job when I go back. Hoho!!

MM Lee outlines two challenges for Singapore to undertake - CNA 14Aug 09

"Mr Lee’s second challenge is to encourage Chinese Singaporeans to speak more Mandarin and to take up scholarships to study in China’s top universities.

He said Singapore needs 200 to 300 A—level students to be proficient in both languages and cultures to manage the work with China — both government—to—government and in the private sector."

China-savvy civil servants- Straits time 26July 09

"PM Lee said: 'We need people who can understand the Chinese...be comfortable in their milieu, be able to read how they think, how they act.' These public servants should know some people in China personally and tap these ties for 'mutual benefit'."

I didnt take up a scholarship in China's top universities.. but I did study in China's top University! Wahahahha... and Im now here in Shanghai working, practicing my mandarin and also understanding the Chinese culture!

Looks like my decision to come China early this year was right. Its really amazing how opportunities are being created for me every time I make a major decision. I remember choosing to study Hospitality and Tourism in Temasek Poly after my O'Levels and not long after there was news for the Integrated resorts to be built.

Hoho... I know that I am so blessed... Its nice to see all these indicators telling me I made the right choice, to let me persevere on. Lets hope things will turn out well when I get back!
