so ytd, a fren & i managed to catch d movie "Gangster Squad" all tks to my generous colleagues & team manager =) plot's rather predictable w/ an occasional or sporadic amount of humour injected but overall it's certainly enjoyable & worth d time.
-------
it appears that many french millionaires r obtaining belgium, swiss or russian citizenships so as to evade d exorbitant 75% tax. some even go as far as making sure not to stay longer than 5 mths lol. interesting..
unemployment rate in d eurozone hit 11.8% in nov 2012. meaning abt 19 million ppl do not have jobs, excluding greece. i wonder y there r guys out there in my country who r complaining abt d low wage rate for middle-lower class singaporean employees(SGD $1,800 & under). i dun suppose anyone would wish to be retrenched for d sake of their colleagues receiving a pay increment uh?
& d salary disparity between d rich & poor isn't juz a local thinggy but rather, a global issue. Singapore has actually tackled this quite efficiently & its success will continue to augment as d end of this decade unfolds into 2020. if one really thinks he deserves a higher pay, then juz prove it meritocratically imo.
y does china even bother engaging in a dozen land disputes w/ a variety of countries like japan & malaysia etc? isn't it quite lame considering she's already got such a huge land mass? y dun they juz give it up & focus on improving their poorer provinces into world-class cities like beijing & shanghai? oh well i guess dat's a detriment dat they'll have to work round on their own.
