A Singaporean's Feelings

I was on the train yesterday and overheard this conversation between a father and his two young sons who look like they should be at the Primary School level - Dad: Do you all know what does AIG stands for?Sons: What?Dad: It used to stand for American International Group which is an insurance company in USA. But now it means All Is Gone because they never manage money properly.Dad: In Singapore we have the CPF.Sons: Also insurance company?Dad: Not really. It's a plan where Singapore people have some money set aside in this plan and when they stop working when they are very old, they can take out the money. This is called the Central Provident Fund. But because we can only take out the money when we are very old, we cannot do much also. So it's now called the Con People's Fund.Me thinking to myself: Damn, I seemed to have heard of these kinda conversations once too often. Do most Singaporeans really think this way?
