I feel that Jim Roger's argument in which he decides to send his children in order to prepare for the future where Asia would be the leading super power in the world. He argues that he sent his children to Singapore to study in order to enable them to be bilingual as to prepare for the future and I strongly agree as with China undergoing rapid industrialising and is slowly immerging to be the world next super power, we definitely cannot sit back and do nothing and instead we must be prepared, prepared to change. The ability to adapt is very important and we must quickly adapt to the rapidly changing world in order to stay at the top. Hence I agree with him due to our common belief that we need to have a global perspectives it will be unwise to think that a country would forever be the world’s leading market. Hence in order to prepare ourselves from the unkwonn future, learning a skill or 2 now is defintetly useful and that is why he sends his children here to learn Chinese.
