WHY NOT ENGINEERS LEH ??

AN ENGINEER IS BASICALLY MATHEMATICAL IT IS STRAIGHTFORWARD.....THAT IS THE STRENGTH OF AI MAH!

Basically every other proffesionals will be replaced by AI except engineers! Engineering is future proof! In near future lawyers, accoutants even general doctors will find themselves jobless as AI can easily take over their jobs but not engineers!

in a certain country where the govt and business environment are full of corruptions, you have to wonder what it takes for the individual to succeed. If you ask your friends where are the best places to makan, get drunk, serves you the best women, you wont be surprised the engineers are the only ones with all the answers. So lets not be naive on over rated articles.

stockraider....every successful engineer will have to go thru the 'acid test" which is exposed to sub contractors, suppliers, govt officials who are masters of the chain. The environment is such

In a way true loh!!

@Pee Wee, PLC for business stand for Private Limited Company? But for Electronic/Technocrat Engineers shall mean Programmable Logic Controller? Experience Engineers with proper business exposure shall make a good business man. Engineers are usually trained to be very analytical with logic, and in real world to be more cost conscious. Only my 2 sen..Happy trading

It's truth.
Engineers need to deal with contractors, suppliers and government agency. Hence many are tempted with free invitation from contractor and supplier to the best place for eating, drnking and women.
And in return they have to bring the government people to the best place for eating, drinking and women.

What a wonderful life as engineer.

Anyone tried making wine from any tropical fruits yet? Apart from coconut of course.

Yep pineapple could be a good idea.

But there are many others with potential I reckon. Like nangka, durian kampong (soursop aka graviola), rambutan, langsat/duku/dokong, mango, even banana or durian.

I would be inclined to agree with that. Besides, you'll still be able to continue indulging in your penchant for some maths & physics in your life. Plus also chemistry, if you do chemical engineering.

Every body can be a good investor
Provided they know how/ when/ what
Strategy and capital to be applied.

With sector knowledge lagi best.

Investment never any single profession privilege lah,
The main point to decide a good return from investing always the self improving and the mindset.

Narrowing mindset comfirm will fail one.

Don't talk Engineers as so great... feel we r more like beggars n get humiliated all the times even hawkers control prices better than us. The rubbish bem n iem only know how to milk money from their own breeds n barely do shit to improve the value of engineers. Those committee members r brainless without realising the hardships out there they only feel proud sitting at the top when ppl pat n call them engineers.. Pui

Some professions, by nature of work, responsibilities and duties alone, are more straightforward - particularly in the science stream. However, when taking into the account of "work environment" (wider scope than "work alone") - dealing with various institutions and people, then the way the work is carried out might change. This also depends on the policies, procedures and processes involved, which could vary from one to another.

Since we are humans - not robots, our level of critical thinking, background, upbringing, psychology, emotion, natural inclination and exposures (apart from educational level or profession we are in) play important roles in decision making.

Two professionals (e.g., engineers) might be given the same set of data, however when they interpret it, they might come to different conclusions or decisions (despite of the fact they have the same rules or procedures to follow).

Look at doctors - assume 2 doctors were trained in the same university and work in the same hospital - with the same rules to follow. However, when they are given a case study of a patient with particular symptoms, they might come to different decisions, opinions, views, solutions and recommendations (though they might also come to a same decision) despite following the same procedures.

Depending on the nature and situation a person is facing, a professional (engineer, doctor, accountant, marketing agent, chemist, etc.) might wish to stick to his own line of work, or might want to explore further by being more business minded. Even businessmen themselves- some are more business minded, some are less in that. Some are more straightforward, some are less. We are all different.....
