tale of 2 cows….
TRADITIONAL CORPORATION
You have two cows.
You sell one and buy a bull.
Your herd multiplies and the economy grows.
You sell them and retire on the income.
AN AMERICAN CORPORATION
You have two cows.
You sell one and force the other to produce the milk of four cows.
You are surprised when the cow drops dead.
A FRENCH CORPORATION
You have two cows.
You go on strike because you want three cows.
A JAPANESE CORPORATION
You have two cows.
You redesign them so they are one-tenth the size of an ordinary cow and
produce twenty times the milk. You then create clever cow cartoon images
called ‘Cowkimon’ and market them World-Wide.
A GERMAN CORPORATION
You have two cows.
You re-engineer them so they live for 100 years,
eat once a month, and milk themselves.
A BRITISH CORPORATION
You have two cows.
Both are mad.
A CHINESE CORPORATION
You have two cows.
You have 300 people milking them.
You claim full employment and high bovine productivity.
You have the newsman who reported on the numbers arrested.
A MALAYSIAN CORPORATION
You have two cows. You signed a 40-year contract to supply milk at RM0.06 per litre.
Then midway through, you raised the price to RM0.60 or you cut the supply.
When the buyer agrees to the new price, you change your mind again and now want RM1.20.
The buyer decided you can keep the milk, who rather go look for milk that
comes from recycled cows or the cow urine instead. At the end your two cows retire together with the Prime Minister.
A SINGAPOREAN CORPORATION
You have two cows.
Whenever prices of GST, ERP, PUB and kopi-si go up; one cow-peh and the other cow-bu!
June Lim.
Hahaha. I didn’t have to read all the rest. The last one was hilarious enough!
You have a good weekend too!
June,
Since you said the story started with 2 cows, does the
Singaporean had to sell the cow and buy the bull in order
to ‘cow-peh’?
This is really funny. I laughed till the tears dropped! We need more of this .. there’s always a funny side in life. Alot of people take life too seriously.
I think the Singaporean cannot sell the cow to buy the bull, ‘cos he’s too busy with the complaining & missed out the international bidding for the lowest priced bull .. and there are too many government regulations pertaining to the sale of cow, and by the time his paperwork gets done, the Japanese won the bid for the lowest priced bull.
hi june
now i understd why d british pound dropped from S$8 to $2.70
n d US$ dropped fr S$3 to $1.35…….all their cows r mad/dead……hahahah……thks a heap !
And Esther you too shd know why the Ind Rupee is rising………..the cow is a sacred animal, a fact that the world is beginning to accept. So, are you still waiting for KT to give you the go-ahead before you start buying up Ind Rupee? Too late lah, by then even an Indiana cow wd hv come home………….
