Hyflux and Education

A little girl from a kampong in Malaysia asked her teacher one day why there are poor people as well as rich ones and what is the difference between them. The teacher told her that difference lies in education. Education is probably the most directly way to abundance. From then on this orphan girl worked very hard in her studies as she wanted to give her adoptive grandmother a good life and be freed from their poverty-stricken days. This little girl's effort paid off and she is now the CEO of Hyflux, a big company in Singapore dealing with water cleaning. The Daoists believe that our life is made up of ten main aspects and our life can be improved through manipulation of some of them. The first five of the ten are fate, luck, fengshui (geomancy), good karma accumulation and education. While the first two are not within our control, the rest definitely are. And in the example above, we see the importance of education in improving our's life.
