It keeps the country afloat.<BR/><BR/>But boy, I wish she has something more than 'supermaids'. <BR/><BR/>I have ministered to them when I was in singapore a few years ago.<BR/><BR/>They cry a lot because they have to leave their babies behind and care for other people's children. They get 3 days off in a month, so they are made to work like dogs.<BR/><BR/>LPCLPChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11352627830833515548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15967712.post-64795723849509736842008-06-03T01:05:00.000+10:002008-06-03T01:05:00.000+10:00I think she is just being practical.

Being a doctor of economics, she realizes that the more women that go to work abroad, the more much needed capital will flow back into her country.<BR/>An economics stimulus package, so to speak.<BR/><BR/>As for her vision; what vision?<BR/><BR/>There'll probably be a speech like made in America soon. We have a nation of 'super-trash collectors' that our education system is producing. Not to worry though, our future politicians will take care of everyone. What a relief.<BR/><BR/> - Steve M.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
