The good news is that it is possible to start your own business working from home in the internet marketing industry.
The bad news is that the snake oil salesmen and women far outnumber the number of people you can trust in the industry.
All you need to do is head over to the leading forum on the internet at the Warrior Forum and you will see a mixture of wannabees and never wases who spend their days in front of a keyboard offering “helpful” advice to newbies.
With the sole purpose of getting their hyperlinked signature in front of as many pairs of eyes as possible to try to flog you some crap product such as how to get your girlfriend back, lose 3 stone in 3 weeks by overdosing on acai berries or curing your hemorrhoids problem with some magic potion or ancient Chinese formula.

A week ago, a group of courageous Singaporeans began a campaign to win the hearts and minds of their fellow citizens. They have limited resources but are driven by conviction, passion and a desire to do what is right for Singaporeans.
They echoed how we feel in their speeches. They inspired us with a vision for a better tomorrow. They fought their best fight they could what what little resources they had to give us a chance to bring about a change in Singapore.
After 45 years, this country has reached a cross-road, these men and women have done all they can against great obstacles to create an alternative path that leads to a better future.
It is now up to us which path we choose to take ...

Future for our children
Dear Mr Tan
Something happened this morning that prompted me to send this email:-
Early this morning at about 3.30am, i brought my son to the A&E Department of a govt-reconstructed hospital. There were 3 doctors on duty, out of which 2 are FILIPPINOS, I did not get a closer look or talked to the 3rd one to ascertain her nationality. This was a vast difference from 1 or 2 years ago when I visited the same A&E department where the doctors spoke in an accent that I am familiar with.
Anyway, after the doctor has examined him, the doctor asked my son to go a nurse who would administer Vandoline to him. The nurse heard his cough and immediately asked him to cough a few times, and asked him to go back to the doctor to be re-examined.
Apparently, the sound of his cough could signify that he has contracted a certain virus "Croop" (think so as I can't really understand the Doctor's accent). He brushed the nurse's comments aside.
The second time we went in to see the doctor, he heard my son's cough and voice and decided to prescribe a medicine for him, which i think it's for the virus "Croop" as I heard the same nurse saying "I told you just now".
This incident speaks a lot to me:-
(a) The entry to our medicine faculty is very stringent and limited. I have heard students who can't get into the local university end up going overseas to study medicine. Isn't it strange that the Goverment are so stringent with fellow Singaporeans and turning away talented Singaporeans, yet so openly embracing foreign doctors?
(b) Do they get Filippino doctors due to lower costs, thereby marginalising our local doctors? I have seen alot of Filippino nurses in hospitals, this is the first time I see Filippino doctors, 2 out of 3 some more.
Can you imagine the future for our children? I have always felt our education system is very stressful for children. The Government have taken away their childhood and now they will be taking away their future if we continue to give mandate to our Government for the slack foreign policy!

Many citizens have the same concern. We need to vote alternative people into Parliament on May 7.

Don't rock Singapore's foundations
I received this e-mail for posting in my blog
Having read this, I feel that there is a lot of truth in what “feedmetothefish “ is saying, so I feel I should share it. It is just not true that the success of Singapore is due to just one man, LKY. There were others like Goh Keng Swee, Rajaratnam, Lim Kim San, Toh Chin Chye, Hon Sui Sen etc. whose contribution to the success of Singapore is significant. Most important of all, the success of Singapore is due to the hardworking people of Singapore. It should be common sense to all that all the citizens of Singapore contributed to the success of Singapore – the workers, the teachers, the taxi drivers, the small stall holders, the civil service, doctors, lawyers, office workers, managers, etc. all have contributed to the success of Singapore.
I tend to agree that even without LKY, Singapore could have succeeded anyway. I agree that the thing that irritated Singaporeans the most is the obscene pay rise of the ministers whose pay were already sky high. Couple this at a time when the poorer segments of the population were having a hard time struggling with high inflation (increase food prices, electricity, transport, rental etc) without any pay rise to adjust for inflation. The average Singaporeans have effectively become poorer. I agree that our ministers should be highly paid. I think that 300,000 to 500,000 should be enough. 2 million or 3 million is ridiculous and immoral. Our leaders should take pride in public service and not just for the lure of money. Read on and let me know what you think.
