Something Different

Interview with SMU school of economic. . I was damn nervous, could feel the trembles in myself as i prepare to answer and answered the questions. The interview went something like this. . .

Question. Briefly introduce yourself and tell us, if you are the prime minister, what will you do. .
Good morning everyone, my name is zhicai or you can call me keith. Im 21 this year, completed my national service, and is now working as a relief teacher in my secondary school bowen. I was a member in the school soccer team in secondary and soccer is like, my life. . for without it, i think my life would have been pretty boring. . and though i no longer take it as a cca, i still play the game every saturday. .
Regarding the question of if im a prime minister, i will be looking at two issue, education and poverty. . Education as in because while i am now working as a relief teacher in school, i realised there are many bright students who wasnt able to perform well in school because of their family background. . i happen to come across this student who has to work in the night everyday every school. . i asked how is he gonna cope with his schoolwork if he has to work in the night, he just said he has no choice since he is gonna feed his family. . such an issue has to be look at. . i do think that sometime the government is maybe looking too much on the big picture that such minor issues are often forgotten.
Secondly, about poverty. . i am currently a volunteer with one of the volunteer committee with central singapore. . i work with young children and has the chance to interact with their parent, many who i found out that they are still in poverty. . i have to agree that the government has done a pretty good job in ensuring that the people do not needa starve but somehow or rather, some of the welfare has not been able to reach these people, it is something we needa look at. . as a prime minister i will do my best at these two areas. .

Question. SMU often has overseas exchange programmes where our students have to spend a term or two overseas. If you were given the chance, which country will you wish to go.
If im given the chance, i will choose to go either china or india. . The reason is because as we know, china and india are the two rising economy in the world, to be able to spend time in the country to learn the way of living and the culture of the country will greatly enables me to know the country better and enhance my chances when doing business with them. . this will help in my career in future. .

Of course, under this kinda tense circumstances, i was like speaking in broken sentences. . but i was lucky in the way that i was sitting at the sixth position from the left and second from the right. . the interview took place as a group as the interviewer started from left to right for the first question and right to left for the secon question. i always have enough time to prepare myself. .

They were not perfect answers but given the amount a fatigue accumulated in me after spending a night drinking at jon's house, i should well be satisfied with it. . it's now left to fate if im offered the course. .
