And given their "helicopter view" they should have the "far-sighted" planning to send subordinates around to listen what's going on actualy. Of cos some ppl may now be critising me as being everything on hindsight.
I don't think it is the case of those top honchos not knowing what is happening on the ground. Don't forget, we have a army of top brain, top scholars in all the govt agencies. How can they not know? How can they not tell what is coming? They have all the necessary data they need. Didn't you see them flashing out all sort of data and justification when they want something done? Didn't they always claim that they are working the ground instead of just waiting for election coming to start working? The problem I see is, thought these people are really smart, no one want to stick out their neck and make the first move. What if they are wrong? Why should they risk their high pay job? They rather wait and see until the situation becomes real obvious. By then, it may be too late.
So, as some forumers have pointed out, don't just depend on govt to take care of our future. We should learn to take care of ourselves.
