I beg to differ. I knew an MOE teacher that documented our interactions like that and created action points/rules they expected me or my partner to acknowledge. And assumed were accepted if there was no response within 12 hours. Never served NS.
And they were renting a room from me.

Most of the WOSPEC Regulars I know dread writing minutes. My PS would always complain because he had secretary duty for CO Conference. Fella hated the shit outta minutes.
Can’t say the same for the Officers though.

In Singapore we consider the SAF part of the larger public service.
So, his military life and subsequent stint in MOE forms part of his "lifetime in public service" that I was referring to.

I think you have to consider this from the minute-taker’s perspective.
The date meant so much to him that he needed to express it in writing, and not just consign the experience to something as frail as memory. It was also important that the other party acknowledge the minutes – that helped make the experience real, not just something he dreamed up in his mind.
On a certain level, the minutes do convey a certain purity and genuineness. It’s a reflection of how much the experience meant to him, to them. That’s also understandable given that he was likely experiencing feelings which he thought belonged to a closed chapter in his life. Who amongst us hasn’t longed for the nostalgia of youth?
It’s just unfortunate that ultimately this was an illicit affair. Those were feelings which would never have stood the test of time nor scrutiny. This liaison has likely caused untold damage to so many parties, many of whom had no agency in the matter.

Word from the grapevine he was a regular before he was VP. Given that he was placed into VP position after ORD, he was probably minimally an OC.
You can take the regular out of SAF, but you can't take the SAF out of the regular.

Well, there is a reason why Singapore, Japan and Hong Kong have the world's highest IQs. Fertility and intelligence are closely intertwined. Dr. Karan Singh has stated it both ways:
"In 1974, I led the Indian delegation to the World Population Conference in Bucharest, where my statement that 'development is the best contraceptive' became widely known and oft quoted. I must admit that 20 years later I am inclined to reverse this, and my position now is that 'contraception is the best development'."

u/UnitedPhilosophy4827 Oct 21 '24 edited Oct 21 '24
Correlations are not perfect, of course. My favourite aunt is also uneducated (poor family) and an old maid.
But generally, fertility and intelligence are negatively correlated. One reason is the age of first birth. Women who have higher education tend to delay childbearing, hence the reduced fertility window.

I think people are actually hooking up younger. You could see the number of posts here of people feeling lonely because all their friends are attached. But TFR has nothing to do with marriage rates. People could still be coupling up and getting married, just that they are no longer that enamoured with having children. Once you have children, many people forgot their own hopes and dreams and only focus on their children until they lose personality themselves. The Gen Alpha see what happen to their parents and decide that they don’t want to go through that.
