We can produce world class leaders like MM Lee or even PM Lee but somehow in areas of sports, entertainment, business etc, we are not even close to our neighbours. We can even produce world class academics like Dr. Tony Tan, excel in Mathematics and Science globally, but it seems that's all we can do as Singaporeans. Is Singapore just an academic society where only the best scholars get the best jobs? Are we regressing into a society where only good academic results counts ? No creativity, no genius like Albert Einstein but only people who are groomed from young to work for goverment organisations and the MNCs?

Yes, I feel that we are progress in this direction. Academic result is one of the key factors where people are concerned today. They do not lack of creativity but they have a fear of failure. It is bcoz of this fear that a lot of people is killing their own creativity. If people is able to put off this fear, I believed that a lot of people can really do much more than their present situation.
