Underdeveloped Countries, they always will be.

There are hundreds and thousands of organizations in the world whose aim is to help the underdeveloped nations. But why? Since the independence of these nations, millions have been donated to these countries, medical aid, education and look at what development they did, NONE. And so I suggest that people should stop donating or cease to help these nations, starting from today.

Underdeveloped countries such as Malawi, Madagascar and Nigeria will always remain undeveloped, and why? As if you check for the corruption status for these countries, they’re often ranked at the top. It is indeed that we were taught to be kind, to lend a hand when other people are in hardships. However, what if we change our perspectives and think of that if we invest this huge amount of money to those who are living in the developed nations? I’m not saying that we shouldn’t totally NOT help the citizens in the underdeveloped nations. We should but we shouldn’t be too extreme.

We should give the upper class the opportunities first, just like what people did a hundred years ago. The sinking of the Titanic? First class passenger first, then second, then third. This is because citizens of developed nations are more likely to generate profits or maybe some more innovations to aid or quicken the pace of the world development. Sacrifices should be made if we want to make the world a better place.

I’m no cold blooded but I think that we should instead of donating money, why not educate them? Most importantly financial and medical education of course to the citizens of underdeveloped nations. We couldn’t afford to risk so many people life, especially professionals and those kindhearted ones exposing themselves to diseases or wildlife. We should help them, but in short term. Help them to gain exposure, knowledge and then let them be what they want, just like what British did to the Commonwealth Countries as the saying goes: give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.

I’ve recently watched some successful (most viewed) Youtube videos and from what I observe is that most of the videos are either from Europe, The United States of America, Canada, Singapore, Hong Kong. Generally people from the developed nations. There may be a lot of other people other who are seeking opportunities to be successful just like the successful ones. And therefore, from my personal opinion, we should give priority to people who seek for success instead of those in underdeveloped nations. What if the money we donated never reach the hand of people in the aforementioned nations? What if the money went all the way to corruptions?

Asians will not be as intelligent as the White People

I’ve recently developed a ‘routine’ of reading a book every once a week (and hope that it’ll last long). I’ve finished reading the book ‘Paper Towns’ written by John Green and it was really fascinating. I had the urge of watching the movie just before reading the book as the movie ‘The Fault in Our Stars’ is also a huge success. John Green’s book mainly focused on teenage love in which he does really hit the teenagers’ market. They, who fancied about love and new sensation will truly love John Green’s novel. You should probably check it out too.

However, after finished reading the story, there are a few thoughts that came into my mind. It’s all mainly about the way the world works. I’ve been on social networks such as 9gag, Facebook and other different ones. What I saw and studied from the inside of my social circle and the ones outside is that many people, especially those with pale skin (white people) will be saying that Asians are smart (Chinese, mainly). However, is it true? It came out to be 20/80. 20% true and 80% false. Minority of Asians are really really clever but they tend to seek for security and changing the world didn’t seem to interest them. I’m not saying that I’m smart or whatever sh**, but according to my research, yes, that is a fact (20/80 principle). Majority of them are not just dimwits, they’re worse than dimwits and most of them just don’t know that.

We’ve seen that most inventions/innovations came from Europe and most of the millionaires or billionaires are mostly from The United States of America. Intelligence is very important and is closely related to the money you’ll be earning in the future. And so I guess that why Asia comprised of so many so-called ‘developing-nations’. Of course, we can’t blame the individuals for having such poor results, it is the government who can’t work/cope well with the changing demands of the world. It’s the information age we are living and yet our education systems are still preparing us to dwell in the Industrial Age. They never taught you about how money works in high school because they never know. Teachers are just teachers and you only think of that they’re smart because you’re in their playing ground. Out from that, they’re just ordinary people.

I’ve met lecturers/tutors that teach Accounting, Finance, Banking, Investments or whatever subjects. Are they rich? No, they aren’t. They’re teaching us because they seek of security. They will not be richer than they currently are. The book ‘Rich Dad, Poor Dad’, written by Robert T. Kiyosaki had taught me more than the other teachers out there and it was highly effective. It says that adults (those with income) are classified into 4 groups, Employees, Self Employed, Business, and lastly Investor. And guess what, according to statistic, most of these people are from the E group because they are risk-averse. They work from 9 to 5 or 8 to 4, receiving a paycheck every month and there it is, they’re satisfied (mostly Asians).

Not only the education systems, but also parents. Parents play a huge role in helping their kids to be successful in the future, being financially free. However, parents did the opposite especially Asian parents. They just can’t stop comparing you and other people children. The kid next door always do better, smarter and more successful than you. Parents failed to see how hardworking their children are behind the scenes. Even if the movie came out and isn’t in your expectation, compliments should also be given to them for their hard work, isn’t it? Moreover, Asian parents want dignity. If you don’t come back with a straight A’s result, don’t call me your dad or your mom. Their mentality is just so ‘what the FUQ’. Besides, they don’t want their kid to be risk-tolerant, they want them to dwell in the E or S sh**hole. That’s why Asians are comprised mostly of poor people.

Not only that, they turn everything their child is interested in into a competition. It’s fun to play the piano, the guitar, or whatever musical instruments, but hey, they play because they love to. You need not to force your children to participate in a competition, stressing them out or to be as elegant as the Duchess, they aren’t, and you are not the Queen, why the f**k would you think that being noble is so damn important? Asians are in an era of copying. They seem to forget what is really in them and so they act so weird. If you want to be f**king ‘noble’, two things: Mind your manners and F**CKING speak ENGLISH, if that’s what you want.

Fat people should stop considering themselves NORMAL.

The following paragraphs contain sensitive contents and may inflict anger to most FAT people, viewer discretion is advised.

I’ve recently finished watching The Fluffy Movie, which features Gabriel Iglesias, a comedian, a BIG one. Before watching the show, I knew his existence the day when my brother sent me a link via Facebook and his comment was: “It’s really funny, take a look bro”. I clicked into it and it showed me Gabriel’s animated drive-thru Burger King joke. You guys should probably check it out.

However, that’s not the main point I would really like to discuss here. Gabriel, he’s a fat comedian and he spoke out to it. He was 445 pounds before the release of the ‘The Fluffy Movie’. He managed to lose some weight (100 pounds), he said and you can really see the difference if you check out his earlier performance on stage. He’s another guy who I really admire in the case where he’s determined to lose weight.

But look at how other fat people react. When they were told to go for a workout, gym, exercise, they get offended. And why the hell would they be offended? We asked you out for your own damn good. You think we do really want a lot of obese guys to walk on the street? No, we don’t. You’re a matter and a matter is defined as anything that has volume and takes up SPACE. Fat people take up a hell lot of space, A-UH. Plus, they’re more likely to suffer from human dystopia as well.

What’s more critical is that fat people don’t care what they look like or how they can cause effect to the others. I was fat too and I did lose some weight. I was around 190 pounds (87 kilograms) and now I’ve lost weight to 150 pounds (approx. 68 kilograms). This is because that I know being fat not only can have negative impacts to myself but also the people, environment around you. When fat people sweat, which they are all the time, the stench is so strong and us, normal people can’t do anything about it. We are the real NORMAL people and fat people aren’t.

Fat people take up so much space and some even need two tickets to get fitted in the cinema. They used up double the resources we NORMAL people use. From clothes to shoes to food. And I guess that’s why some countries are having a shortage of food. This isn’t about condemning fat people, it’s just the fact that they really used up lot of resources. Many would say that they’ll go working out in no time but they ended up being a couch potato. (Of course, for those who’re really working out or on a diet, thank you for saving up the resources)

What’s even worse is that fat people will post pictures of themselves and type in some caption saying that being fat is not wrong. I agree with that because being FAT is a SIN. I’m no Christian but I know what a SIN means. Fat people who thinks that they’re not wrong being fat, you’ll probably sink to hell some day because you wouldn’t try climbing the stairs to heaven. (This has nothing to do with religion)

I don’t know whether fat shaming will help but this post isn’t here to make fat people feel ashamed. This is what a lot of people are thinking about. It’s just that they do not have the courage or the means to express it. So, if you’re thinking that being fat is fun and will not have any impacts on us, the real NORMAL people and the environment, think twice and get your mind reset.

People should try face-to-face communication, for now.

Since the launch of the first smartphone in 2007, face-to-face communications among people have declined over the years. Today’s technologies do aid us in many ways, from communication to entertainment, most of us probably do it via smartphones. However, as technologies bring all these good stuff to us, we’re likely to suffer from human dystopia.

We communicate through texting, texting, texting…. There seems like no more verbal communication at this point, which is a very sad truth. I came to oversee this problem when I was in a tuition class back in secondary school. My teacher told us about issues regarding the smartphone, and guess what, he was right. We are absolutely in the era where electronic devices dominate over humans.

I was lucky enough to get through my childhood with real people, real games, real toys. We had some fights, quarrels, punching and all of that stuff. I played badminton, tennis, basketball with my four limbs instead of my fingers. The sensation is true. And kids nowadays will not know how does it feel like to be soaked in sweat, coming back home, getting yelled by their parents and finally taking a bath. No, it’s not happening anymore. What kids know today is sitting on the couch, with an iPad or a smartphone, playing with non-true-interactive games. All these may sound bad but as for the bright side, these kids have better smartphones than me. D:

I recently met one of my friends which we knew since we were in high school. We used to talk a lot, about growth stage, fantasies, movies, science… We talked almost everything that has the value for us to discuss about. I added him on Facebook today and it feels kind of awkward to send him a message via the messenger. I mean like, we used to chit chat face-to-face and now… It’s just awkward.

Another time when I haven’t got my first smartphone yet (I had my truly first smartphone when I turned 18) and a bunch of friends I knew since kindergarten went out to have a meal, some sort of a reunion. We went having our lunch at a bistro. The place has this warm light, red bricks and mortar as wallpaper, with a Texas theme.

The moment we sat down, selfies. And I was like: Okay, just go with the flow, it’s a norm now.I was thinking that after this selfie session, maybe we would have our normal conversation, right? And that was the worst anticipation I’ve ever made. Everyone, except me started posting the pictures they took on Facebook, Snapchat, Instagram. And when I got back home, my whole news feed was full of those pictures from different angles and captions that are almost the same: reunion with friends. When they’re finally done with that, they keep scrolling. Scrolling, scrolling, scrolling… And I was like Really? You guys do things that you can do it at home over here, almost 6 years we didn’t meet each other and you guys don’t want to have a conversation? Guess what? That reunion doesn’t end well though.

Indeed that smartphones are really attractive and convenient to people. However, they are preventing us from expressing ourselves to the outside world. Maybe some people wouldn’t mind. But hey, look, it feels so empty inside without words that moisturize the heart. You may be texting LOL, LMFAO, ROFL but your face is just… poker. We wouldn’t want a generation that will lead the world to demolition, no, no way.

And therefore, if you’ve finished reading this, please, at least meet a few friends, talk to them, know how their current situation is, create tighter bonds and you’ll see that you’ll be living a life that’s different than before.

Why GAY people should not be discriminated.

The following paragraphs contain sensitive contents and may inflict anger to most people, viewer discretion is advised.

Same-sex marriage has been legalized by the government of the United States in June, 2015 and it went pretty intense all around the world. However, there still are some videos and footage on Youtube showing that there are still many people who are against this amendment. And I’m here like what the fuck? Well, it’s not like gay people are going to hurt you in the ass. You’re overestimating your look.

You might say that this is against nature. But hey, it’s natural, okay? We’re so-called humans not because of our developed brain only, but also the feelings we have inside our heart. If’s that’s not natural, then tell me, the hormones that were stimulated and created inside our body by the hypothalamus, they’re artificial, man-made? What the F**K, man? Go back to basic biology class.

Some religious people would say that God doesn’t allow this or that. Well, what’s the big deal? If religious people are to say some sh** like this, ask them a few questions.
1. Do you believe that your whatever so-called God created everything we have today?
2. If it is, does he created humans?
3. If it is, again, then He should create all humans the same way, normally.

And therefore, gay people, you just won the argument against the religious person. It’s not your fault being in love with someone of the same sex. People don’t react that intensely with lesbians, so why the gays? We keep saying we want equality, but who’s there preventing this vision to become a reality? You’re not wrong, the so-called ‘normal’ people.

Tim Cook is gay, Alan Turing is a homosexual, but they do bring some interesting innovations to help change the world. And who’re us normal people to comment on the gays’ feelings? No, it’s a free world today. You can’t punish a person who had feelings on a particular subject. You can’t punish Houdini for loving magic, you just can’t hate Elon Musk for loving rocket science or engineering. You can’t, you really just can’t.

Gay people are out there, doing the exact same thing as ‘normal people’ do. They pay taxes, they obey laws, they help contribute to the society and they… They did what they need to and yet we’re here trying to prevent or to discriminate them. Hell, no. They weren’t born to be homosexuals. If they could choose, they might want to join the majority too. Nobody’s want to be a freak in an organization. Their activities wouldn’t hurt us anyway.

Many people will start asking if a gay couple got married, how’re they going to have sex then deliver a baby? Maybe they don’t need to. They might have plans just like the others do. If they’d really like to have kids, they could just go for adoption. It helps preventing the overpopulation problem. It’s better than having less-safe sex. Isn’t it true?

I’m not promoting for gay or somewhat. I’m just here to say that I support gay rights and they deserve to be respected, just like the normal people. So, if you’d really like to comment on homosexuals, especially gays, why don’t you f**king mind your own business first?

World peace will not be achieved.

I remember that one presentation during my college life that I mentioned and told my fellow classmates that there are 3 ways of becoming very, very rich.

Firstly, you were born rich;
Secondly, you inherited a large sum of money from your family;
and Thirdly, you start a war.

Since the dawn of human civilization, humans had live only 300 years of peace throughout history, and that’s a shame. We placed ourselves on the top of the food chain so that we can fight over each other. It’s ridiculous!

And why would I say that world peace will not be achieved? Not even in decades, centuries or a millennium. We will continue to create wars, more of them, with more deadly weapons that can wipe out the whole human race in just a blink of the eye. And why should I say that?

The main factor to attain peace is to accept each other. However social medias are doing the opposite. They classify people into groups. Light skin, dark skin, Americans, Chinese, Europeans… If we could stop calling each other Americans or the Chinese, maybe we would gain peace for once again.

Indeed that we’re currently living in an era where peace is among us. Or do we? ISIS taking over the world? Syria refugees fleeing to the European Union to gain protection. North Korea is to bomb the United States…

All these events, are they bringing us peace? Well, except the establishment of the United Nation that bring a little effect to world peace. But no, wars aren’t over yet. There are more to come.

And besides that, this topic might be sensitive and guess what? Beliefs.
Religions are meant to bring some sort of betterment to the community. However, we see the opposite of it. People are fighting for their beliefs and this is really stupid. Why can’t a person believe what they think is true? Why would somebody think that people should have the same mindset from the other? Everybody is different and that’s a fact. You can’t change that bloody truth. Starting war because of different beliefs, that’s bulls**t.

The world would be a better place if people respect each others’ belief.

I don’t mean to criticize any beliefs or whatsoever. But I do believe the fact that the world would be a better place if everybody respects what others believe in. It’s not about religion but tolerance.

So, if we could just stop discriminating others and respect in what others believe in. I truly believe that the world would become a better place in no time. Or to wish for an alien invasion to unite humans together.

How does it take to change the world?

Facebook is inevitably a social media that changed the way how people communicate and the way people live their life. It was until last week I read more about Mark Zuckerberg and I think this man is truly incredible. Facebook will hold a Q&A session (I don’t know, maybe once in a while) and the most recent one was on yesterday at Facebook Headquarters @Menlo Park, California.

What I’m interested in is that Facebook’s vision of making internet access and education available to everyone on this planet. Mark mentioned that Facebook will be launching its personalized learning program/software during this fall, like maybe a few schools in the United States. This might be a big leap for the education system which has been static without change for the past centuries. Facebook is likely to shape the future world with this wonderful program.

In the Q&A session, people do asked about AI (Artificial Intelligence). Somehow, Mark is optimistic about the AI and the impact of AI in the future. It doesn’t seem that AI is going to take over the world like those in the sci-fi movies. Technologies do have its bright side and dark side. But, who is it to decide what technologies today can do for us? Us. We are the future. And for all the innovations out there, opportunities, chances, we have the ability to shape, to change the world into a better place without war, sufferings and emphasize on equality.

What really makes into my heart is that when Mark mentioned that he doesn’t know whether Facebook will be there forever. As you can see that Friendster, Myspace that went down after the launch of Facebook. Most companies do have the vision to exist forever but Mark and Facebook didn’t think so.

“Everything comes to an end”

Mark said it himself. It doesn’t matter if a company live long enough and earn a Guinnes World Record or to outrun others in the industry. Establishing a company is not about how long it can survive but how can it have impact in the community or the world.

If you’re an Asian, you’d probably know about Tai-Chi, which resembles dynamic yet equal changes. It’s just like the market, when it hits the peak, it falls. And when it hits the floor, it comes back up. Over hundreds and thousands of years, this concept had proved that nothing exists forever, except for one, change.

Mark truly inspired me after reading his biography, watching online videos and how he is willing to learn. He’s a genius, a present Alan Turing and I admire him. I’m not a big fan of computer science or computer theory myself but I believe that more people should be like them. Generous, intelligent and have some ‘delayed-gratification’ attitude.

Changing the current world which is full of sufferings and conflicts would be a big deal. But if we don’t start today, now. When will we?
