bah!

a quote from their boss, "We have entered into an era whereby imagination is much more important than knowledge and creativity and much more effective than productivity."

Okay, this quite really got on my nerves. Imagination is more important than knowledge and creativity. How on earth can that be true...? 1stly, imagination is just that, ideas be it good or bad, productive or not. Creativity on the other hand is the formulation of novel and new ideas. Which beats imagination hands down. For you can just keep imagining that you'll be rich. But be creative, produce a good idea then you're going to be rich.

Knowledge. I didn't know we've just stepped out of the industrial revolution into the knowledge based economy just a few years ago and now we're in the imaginative economy? fuck you, you fucking dumb bastard. If knowledge were not so important than I don't know what the whole developed world is doing trying to impart knowledge to their citizens. If what you say is true then the Singaporean Government must be mother-fucking-dumb in their drive to get as many Singaporeans filled with as much knowledge as possible. I mean why set up 3 universities, try to bring in UNSW, semi-recognise SIM and talk about setting up a 4th university if knowledge is no longer important.

And imagination is more effective than productivity. RIGHT. I would like to try sitting in front of my computer IMAGINING that I'm doing my work rather than actually doing my work. Because it is MORE EFFECTIVE than productivity.

What would the world do once productivity is down. With all this talk about increasing Singapore's productivity it's simply retarded to say that imagination is more effective than productivity...

WHAT THE FUCKING HELL.
