Some thoughts.

Everybody has different traits of a person they are attracted to. Maybe I'll make a list of my own. I'm attracted to these traits in a person: Well groomed, artistic, quirky, creative, humble, kind, has good taste, has care for his/her friends, responsible, optimistic and steady people.

I saw of the vision of the BMTC, hung at the left and side of the auditorium which etched 'Winning the mind and hearts of men through a memorable and meaningful experience at BMTC'. Yep, that's what I remember. Before the trip to BMTC at Tekong, I've watched the whole series of 'Every Singaporean's son' on cyberpioneer TV. It's interesting and I'm very happy to be part of the experience. I'm on the chapter of leadership now, and this is something to ponder on. Yes, I need discipline now. From now till 29th May. Hehe.

Singapore, with a score of 20 is an collectivistic country (according to Hofstede) Yea, that's my little red dot.

However, I think I'm lean a little closer to the characteristic of an individualist. If using the Hofstede five dimension of national culture definitions. Let me see, hmm, I think i'll rank myself as 60 on the individualist/collectivistic dimension. If in a defensive mode, maybe 80. Haha. It's subjective, and I think the scores are subjective to individuals. The scores also determine the 'appropriate way' to behave in the society I guess.

I value independent thinking, having and giving honest feedback and being objective when tasks concerned.
