Where have the good teachers gone?
Where have the “sifus” and “mahagurus” gone?
Where have the good professionals gone?
Where have the good doctors and lawyers gone?
Sounds familiar, right?
Confucius said this before: “Among three persons walking together, there will be one teacher”. Question is whether this teacher is a responsible and honest one or not?
Almost everyday and everywhere, I meet up with a lot of so-called “joker” doctors, mediocre lawyers and irresponsible teachers….Doctors who are busy with multi-level marketing, selling vitamins and healthcare products, lawyer calling a spade a “spate”, and teachers giving tips only during their “outside” tuition class, so on and so forth…
The cruel fact is: Most of them have become the greedy parties that taking full advantage of others’ ignorance and unknowingness.
Let’s look at the reality….
What has happened to the private hospital?
A patient must have a medical card or credit card or enough cash before they are entitled the right to get admitted into it; else, they are still left aside to suffer the physical agony and mental torture.
The hospital is very eager, hand in hand with the insurance company, to work out a very “attractive package” for you, you get what I mean?
What on earth of these sane doctors’ mindset for letting the patients dieing a slow death?
Where is the code of ethics?
Isn’t that loopholes in the laws and regulations?
We have seen that in their relentless pursuit of profits, the patients end up in a situation that the service rendered becomes highly unaffordable and they are unable to access the needed treatment, which has very much defeated the original sacred purpose and deviated from the original good intention, which is to save lives and relief pains and have the patient’s interest come first at heart.
Is this so-called the next new trend? Or the next millionaire’s way?
Making money at others' expense?
.
Back to our swiftlet ranching business….
We are also facing almost the similar problems. It is nothing new. There are a few CON -sultants with hidden agendas earning handsome money thru conning approach. We can’t see slight sincerity in their eyes, all we can see is the dollar sign.
All this boils down to “willing buyer willing seller”. It is beyond one person’s capability to change and do something about it.
Nowadays, the status of professional or consultant is severely weakened. Capitalism is eating the capitalists. Put it in layman terms: professionals are making unusually extra underserved money from their profession. They tend to turn themselves into salesman and start to deliver bullshit and nonsense, if stringent monitoring mechanism or system to prevent culprit or black sheep is not in place.
The swiftlet consultants should come clean and responsibly upkeep the professionalism. They should doctor a value-engineered design for the newbies and charging them at a fair rate.
The point is newbies are always the losers and illegal ranchers continue to be victimized by the authorities that trying to be funny and not live up to expectation.
In the pursuit of relentless profiteering, deceiving is something unavoidable?
In our modern business world, is this the price that we have to pay for commercialization of everything?
So, my dear swiftlet-loving friend, just beware of the plausibility of a salesman.
The truth might not always palatable.
However, it does not take a genius brain to realize who is CONsultant and who is not.
All the righteous people out there should expose the hollowness of the cons, at all costs….
for there should not be any efforts to circumvent the laws and further hurt the industry.
No more.
