Even if it failed, the experience they get is invaluable.. Not something a fixed salary job can teach you...
1. I have served the nation in a combat unit for 2.5 + 10 years. I had fulfilled my duty as a citizen, but has the country do it's part for me?
2. I don't know where the threat of CCP is, but I know the threat of CECA is already at my doorsteps
3. I had been called a CCP, JHK, Pinoy, but they never called me a CECA..

I went Langkawi abt 5 yrs ago and rented a car from this Chinese Malaysian. He came to Langkawi with his wife after his business failed in KL.
Saw the opportunity in car rental after becoming a tour guide there. Within 10 yrs he was able to buy a bungalow there together with another 7 cars.
