American Dream VS Indonesian Dream

AMERICAN DREAM
Is to be successful with minimum aid

That’s why what Americans value most are
independence and hard work

It’s the reason why Americans disrespect the people
who disrespect themselves by begging for sympathy from others.

***********************************************

INDONESIAN DREAM
Is to be successful with minimum effort

That’s why what Indonesians seek most are
short cut and getting acquainted with the key persons.

It’s the reason why in Indonesia corruption is a norm,
ass kissers are respected, and everybody wants to be civil servant.

CHINESE DREAM
-------------

Is to be successful with minimum expense.

That's why Chineses wear lousy clothes and disregard new technologies.

It's the reason why Chinese focus on the trading (buying and selling) business, never into the company business.
satu lagi,, orang indo pada suka maen dukun dalam mencapai mimpinya,, hehehe

About the American dream... not really lo, actually most Americans live with lots of aid.

Aku tau sendiri kalo org Amrik itu generally punya banyak hutang. Contoh: untuk sekolah, mereka biasa pake student loans, ntar beli mobil pake credit bank, beli rumah pake mortgage, dan of course the daily credits using credit cards.

Sebenernya kalo anda udah ke sono, you will soon find out banyak orang Amrik yg terbelit hutang. Dulu aku pernah denger aja ada college student bisa punya credit card debts $80k. Gile ga tuh.

Berbeda ama orang indo yang lebih percaya ama cash, ga mau hutang2an. Makanya dealer mobil di Amrik seneng banget kl yang beli orang Asia, krn sekali beli mobil, bayarnya cash, ga pake cicilan2 credit2an. Hahaha...

Cuma bedanya yg bikin mereka makmur, goverment yang membantu rakyatnya. Ada sosial security fund (kaya jamsostek), tp ini bener2 jalan dan most people can retire with good amount of money. Trus org2 yg miskin (homeless, jobless dll) sering dikasih tunjangan dari pemerintah. Gitu deh.
