      HSK is trying his best to do a good job, don't let the \"sentimental fools\" issue blind your vision, we do need \"sentimental fools\" in the education too, it is an INTEGRAL part of the education.

      Eh...that looks somehow familiar...where did I see it??!! :scratchhead: 😉 :imanangel:

        True what, every school, a good school.


        Never say every school is equally good in all the same areas. So can be good in churning top scorers, can be good in sports, can be good in performing arts, can be good at cutting hair, can be good in churning out dropouts. :razz:

        Why when school and good put together, we inevitably think academic results?

        Funz is funny... 😂

        Haha agreed ksi.

            Yes we are all foolish sentimental fools but it is with such fools that the world is a better place to live in. So if we don't cultivate such sentimental fools, we will end up having to feel even more sorry for ourselves in years to come.... Hope you get a better picture now.

            Why should sentiments feeling of A gain precedence over practical considerations of B?

            That, is the issue.

            There is absolutely nothing wrong with being sentimental.

            But that shouldn't come with entitlement or priority over others who have other practical considerations.

            And.. your love for your alma mater need not shift even if your kids don't get to study in that loved school. It will forever be your alma mater even if it is not your kid's.

              Every school is a good school reminds me of the famous propagandist in the Animal Farm "2 legs good…2 legs good"…but "4 legs better…"

                Duh....how come this subject heading sounds so familiar? :? When I see this heading I see Chenonceau. Hasn't it been discussed extensively before?

                  Every school is a good school. That line is a joke now.

                  If every school is a good school, why can't we find ministers' kids in the neighbourhood schools. Why are there IP or GEP? Parents are willing to become parent volunteers or move to stay within 1km from the elite or better schools. My brother stays in Punggol & he drives his kids to Nanyang Pri every morning.

                    “Every School [is] a Good School” – as highlighted by Minister Heng in his speech.


                    What do you think about this?
                    I don't believe it. How's the term \"Good\" been measured with? Good teachers, good principal or good materials or good facilities? Sorry, have not watch the youtube yet to give this comment. Just my thoughts at this moment. :roll:

                      Mr HSK is 51 years old...wonder which schools did his kids attend back then.

                        exactly !

                        Similarly for the U too.
