1. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealth out of prosperity.
2. What one person receives without working for ... another person must work for without receiving.
3. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.
4. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it.
5. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work, because the other half is going to take care of them; and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work, because somebody else is going to get what they work for; that is the beginning of the end of any nation!
Can you think of a reason for not sharing this?
Neither could I .......

Do you remember this piece of news that made headlines for days?
It was December 1961, and the air was filled with excitement for the fans who flocked to the Stadium Merdeka to watch Cliff Richard and The Shadows in concert.
Quite frankly, that was not the only excitement created by the stars, but what followed a couple of days later.
Cliff made the headlines when he kissed a Malay actress at Paya Lebar airport, Singapore before leaving for England. Serah Abdullah, the actress from Cathay Keris, told the press that Cliff promised to bring her back to England. The kissing scene brought hue and rage from the Malay community in Singapore. Anyway, she waited and waited for so long, but Cliff didn't turn up again. [Ooooh, that's so sad]. Cliff even learned how to say 'I love you' in Malay.
