POLITICS! WHAT DO YOU KNOW?

Politics? What is that? Na...not my stuff..its'something that gotta do with the following figures. Mr Lee Kuan Yew, the architect of Singapore. Mr Taksin, a billionaire outgoing Thai Primere and Mr Bush..

Right I am? Wouldn't you agree?

Why all of a sudden I am talking politics? Well it's a man talk right..And in recent days there are so much a hype on the papers as the Singapore polling days just around the corner and there is this ASEAN DIALOGUES in BALI. And the main agenda there got something to do with my country politics..

So I was just doing some self examining.. politics! What do I know about politics? Ummm.... it's not my cup of tea. Never was and never will be. When I was about to say then FULL STOP since I know nuts about it, I happened to read MAXIM magazine monthly updates in my email and bang bang!!.

What a shame! The small boy knows it better what the politics is...

A little boy goes to his dad and asks, "What is politics?"

Dad says, "Well son, let me try to explain it this way: I'm the breadwinner of the family, so let's call me capitalism. Your Mom, she's the administrator of the money, so we'll call her the Government. We're here to take care of your needs, so we'll call you the people. The nanny, we'll consider her the Working Class. And your baby brother, we'll call him the Future. Now, think about that and see if that makes sense,"

So the little boy goes off to bed thinking about what dad had said.

Later that night, he hears his baby brother crying, so he gets up to check on him.

He finds that the baby has severely soiled his diaper. So the little boy goes to his parents' room and finds his mother sound asleep. Not wanting to wake her, he goes to the nanny's room.

Finding the door locked, he peeks in the keyhole and sees his father in bed with the nanny. He gives up and goes back to bed.

The next morning, the little boy says to his father, "Dad, I think I understand the concept of politics now."

The father says, "Good son, tell me in your own words what you think politics is all about."

The little boy replies, "Well, while Capitalism is screwing the Working Class, the Government is sound asleep, the People are being ignored and the Future is in deep shit."
