Fancy turning to every channel and see your favourite PM Lee appearing. My mum says "kns" in a joking manner of course, coz her 9pm fann wong show will not be appearing today. LOL.
But fret not, what I can do for you ppl is extract the interesting part of what our Prime "Matchmaker" has mentioned and oversimplify it for you ppl to understand.
These means I'll be sacrificing 2hrs to watch Prime "Matchmaker" 'Rallying' Singapore with his big smile and long hands waving at the university cultural centre.
I'm gonna take out topics on Global Problems, Inflations, HDB Rental Flats and ERP since most of you do not drive etc. This is a Rally among the youth, for the youth.
So why the name PM Lee turns Prime "Matchmaker" Reason is S'pore is short of babies.
Over the years, the wailing sound in KK hospital, Mount Elizabeth & Mount Vernon has been quieter and quieter.
Because most cuppies (couples) stop at once. Which means, the baby only replace 1 parent either the mother or the father. Thus, X years down the road we'd be having half the population. So don complain they are influx in foreigner coz they are our newfound "babies" haiz.
Therefore, PM Lee would like us to date early. Cheers for those in secondary sch coz I'm sure their parents would nt allow. Bt they can say, PM Lee say can mah. -_- PM Lee says date responsibly.
Well, to have babies, you needa get married first, to get married, you needa find the date.
His quote:
1. First step is to find the right partner and get married
Here's and interesting example of late dating.i. Relate conversation one matchmaker had with his client
Q: What do you usually do after work?
A: Go to the gym
Q: How about the weekends?
A: Stay at home with family
Q: Do you go out?
A: Yes, bring nieces and nephews out to play
Q: Have you met any new friends in the last week?
A: [Dead silence]
Q: How about the last 1 month?
A: [Dead silence again]
we can see from this story, this lady do not really socialize in her workplace or free time I would say. Hence, we must get out of our comfort zone & meet new friends, exchange pointers before its too late.Another story
i. e.g. dating agency arranged for a guy to meet a date
ii. Setting was a romantic dinner at a nice restaurant
iii. But he showed up wearing slippers!
(1) Asked why he did not dress up for the occasion
(2) His reply – this is me, this is how I am
(3) After some tactful grooming advice, he made progress and learnt to keep a pair of shoes in the car, and put them on before dates.
(4) When meeting the gf parents *he was alr standing outside her house*, he called the agency and asked if he needa buy a present. Agency replied yes you must go go go. So he ran all the way to get a hamper and knock on the door. lol(5) The couple are now happily married
What a touching story. lol.The conclusion is
1. Young people themselves should take the first step, and not leave it
too late
a. Make time to go out and meet new friends
b. Join a dating agency, be it SDU/SdS or a private agency
c. You may find someone you are attracted to
d. Then you can marry the person you love, and love the person you marry!
I love the d quote.
after marriage, it would be reproduction so to speak. why woman do not wan to give birth, its becoz they either have to sacrifice work, have babies or have babies, sacrifice work.
For me, I tink why cant the man be the househusband. In my case, I would lov e to take care of my baby at hme rather than seeing the politics in the office and the sour face of my boss. Isnt it a more conducive environment. DP DP i guess.We noe baby will cry, throw tantrums but if we love them, we can do so much for them as well.=)
i. Natural for parents to worry about children, and encourage them to work hard and do better
(1) But also need to understand them – each child has different aptitudes and talents
(2) Give them space to grow up
(3) They will learn and mature in their own time
Well, I do agree with this. Hope our parents keep it in mind as well.And so its the end of the youth rally courtesy of PM Lee's office & andyboirepublic. tata.
