1) Globalization is d trend 2day. But it aggravates d brain drain in Malaysia. To understand diz, we need 2 look at our immigration policies, which were formulated in d 1950s when people couldn't travel easily.
2) We didn't want people coming into d country then, so our policies stopped people coming in. We believed our people wouldn't want 2 go out, so our policies didn't stop them going out.
3)But 2day, d world has changed. It's now very easy 2 travel, it only takes about 20 hrs 2 fly 2 the other side of d world. With this ease in travel, physical borders can no longer stop people from entering or leaving a country. So people go out, especially those with knowledge and skills. Others countries offer them, so they leave n we lose our best people.
4) At d same time, we ve policy which stops brains from coming in. But we also need workers, so we allow uneducated people 2 come in.So what we get is no inflow of brain, but inflow of d brainless.
5) All this because we r using an outdated immigration policy. We must remember that in future, all countries will ve a multi-racial population. There wont be a single ethnic nation anymore. Five million of d people in France 2day r Algerians, England has many Indian restaurants. People will b moving around, either legally or illegally, n settling down where they live.
6) The only country may not change is China. With its 1.3 billion people. People who go China become Chinese. Kublai Khan conquered China n became Chinese. The Maricus conquered China n became Chinese. There r so many Chinese, you get diluted, the Chinese dont.
7) To attract youth n talent, we need 2 change our policy 2 consider d mobility of youth n talent.

1 Future
1) The future, life is perfect, everyone has a job from government.Everyone has a house from d government. The government loves everyone.It takes care of everyone. We have a real integration.Everyone is assigned a new family everyday. We r one at last.
2) One day,something goes wrong. There's a man, he can't open d door 2 his house. D one assigned 2 him...for d day by government.Diz has never happened b4. He tries for 2 hrs, he tries in vain. If he doesn't get into his house, he'll not get his instruction 4 trow, n if he doesn't get his instruction, he doesn't know how 2 live.
3) The thought is unbearable, so he panics, he press d emergency button, he waits... Is anyone coming 2 help him? He wonders if he is allowed 2 speak. Speaking has been forbidden for 10 yrs. But diz is an emergency, so he clears his throat. He moves his lips. An agent soon appears...
4) She is friendly. She arrest him. He's shocked! He says, " is diz a misunderstanding?". The agent takes notes. Perhaps he's made a mistake by speaking. But he's done nothing wrong.
4) He says: "There's something wrong with d system". Now he's done something really wrong.
5) This's a story of one citizen. All other citizens continue 2 live perfect lives...
