before i post what i want to post. let me just write out my whole essay first. so that i can kill two birds with one stone and i think typing is out better than writing.

Random question : globalisation has been a challenge for singapore. how far do you agree. explain your answer 13m

I agree to a large extent that globalisation has been a challenge for singapore. Globalisation means connecting people, countries and everything all around the world.
Firstly globalisation has brought stiff ecnomic competition to singapore from countries like china where in china there is a large workforce to tap on and it is cheaper for transnational corporations(TNCs) to do buisness there. it is more cost and labour effective to set up companies in singapore. Moreover, singapore has been facing competition from even its neighbouring countries like malaysia and bangkong. One example is in bangkok where they had just improve on their airport. This would attract many foreign investments to do buisness with bangkok and not with singapore. Therefore, it is challenging for singapore to constantly improve and remain attractive to TNCs so as to stay competitive especially in this globalising world.
Secondly, globalisation has made it easier for people to travel around the world. Talents in singapore might thus find it more productive to work overseas rather than in singapore as there might be better opportunities over there. This is challenging because if singaporeans were to leave, singapore would face problems like brain drain and decreasing population.

However, we must not deny the fact that globalisation has brought benefits to singapore too.

Firstly, with globalisation, TNCs would set up companies in singapore and do buisness with us. with more TNCs setting up companies it would mean more job opportunites for the people. One example is seagate, the world's larger harddrive manufacturer has set up its manufacturing facilities in singapore. This not only generate jobs but affirms singapore as a manufacturing hub. This is beneficial because more talents would be discourvered and the workforce would be strengthen hence remaining out attractiveness to TNCs.
Secondly, with globalisation comes the increase in standard of living. With more TNCs coming to singapore, out economy would definately boost and thus our standard of living would go up. Singaporeans would then have a variety of stuffs to choose on and the governement can use this money to build and improve our infrastructures. This is beneficial because with a higher standard of living, more people would be satisfied and thus bringing singapore to a newer level in this competitve and globalising world.

In a nutshell, i think that globalisation is more of a challenge to singapore because singapore must always be alert in this globalising world. We must be prepared for any challenges that are to come and 'think out of the box' to get solutions. Failure to do so would make singapore lose alot of buisness and thus a drop in the economy. It is definately more difficult to be on the look out for new challenges and the latest technology which face our country from all around the world, so as to prevent them or turn them into opportunities.

woah done -.-. Finally finsh one essay.
crap, today woke up at 8+. was super tired laa. i think its because these few days always sleep so late then because school start at 7 then i normally wake up at 5+ so still cannot get used to the timing.
Went to dig for my geo notes and studied them because tomorrow going to ask mdm zurina quetsions. Finsh up chem after that and i pray hard i can get A1 for chem. Because i studied so much harder and go into deep detail. Physcis is a byebye. LOLS.
Then watch tv drama. shit right -.-. exams coming i still go watch but then so tempting. Studied ss along the way and the whole of globalisation has been done. woots. no venice, say hi to sri lanka tomorrow.

I believe that when god taks something away from you, he will give you something in return. Do you believe in it? Cause i just realise it is so true. And of course, what goes around, comes around. or was is what comes around goes around ?
I wish these prelims i cann do well. well, at least good enough to be on par with that psychotic freak sitting beside me. HAHA.

Bye ;D


P.s. So you just gotta resist today ;D



Live ;D
