    Well , if you are skilled enough , Technology, finance , industry expert , then you can do great. But if your job is to just pick up papers from one table, stamp them and move them over to another , then I guess you get paid to your worth.

    Education and Knowledge is a tool to fight inequality and should be free to everyone.

     

    Does everyone has equal acces to education ?

    That's a shame that many of your educated Russian friends support Putin invading the Ukraine with thousands of troops and huge military resources -- bombing and destroying and killing civilians!

     

    If I were you I'd choose my friends better! I would want nothing to do with people who support such aggression against innocent people!

    Where did I mention "friends " ? Reading seems difficult for many people on AN.

    You might be surprised how little trouble you might get. I don't think that a leader who acts like that finds much sympathy from his countryman. I think that guy betrayed his own country by leading innocent people into a war that nobody wants. On the other hand..... our western leaders are not much better. They didn't invade, but as far as I have learnt they ignored all agreements from before by insisting to militarize the Ukraine against Russia.

    Militarize Ukraina against Russia ? I think you are from a different planet. Ignoring all agreements ? Putin always does.

    Yes, and 

     

    I don't suppose Thailand banned any Russian banks! Not in their financial interest -- and b - - - -r any moral interest!

     

    I see even the greedy Swiss financial institutions are 'considering' freezing Russian bank accounts!

     

    Many on this site are criticising the Russian people for the Ukranian invasion. I don't suppose many educated Russians support Putin's actions. Repressive states: Russia, China, Belarus, Thailand, Burma feed their public political propaganda and give them no choice in their countries actions.

    When CC companies block their cards it's worldwide.

    The Swiss don't consider they did freeze Russian bank accounts.

    Wrong, many educated Russians do support Putin's actions, I have daily discussions with them on whatsapp.

    Singapore is not what it seems. As a tiny microstate, they have no choice but to do what they did as they could one day be in the receiving end of aggression.

     

    If you have ever lived there, though, you will be well aware of their tacit support of virtually everything China is doing. They run China state propaganda in the news, too. 

     

    They are not a country based on principle but rather one based on pragmatism. Not terrible but also not nearly what they portray. 

    Singapore is a dictatorial ruled place.
