QUOTE(kaiserwulf @ Nov 20 2009, 07:29 PM) The stats seems to make sense from the on-the-street talk about communities of East Asians settling in the country and outperforming the locals who would be South East Asians by distinction. The ongoing talk is that those of East Asian descent would be more hardworking and actually capable but given less benefits by the government as a form of control. Makes a good debate. *I have no idea why I just shared that*Your quote is directly from Discovery channel, many of these topic are from after watching Astro. In modern times, such definition don't make sense any more and it is culture / religion that prevent from advancing, science already identify us as homo sapiens regardless of race and no particular race can't become lawyer/ doctor/ judge/ engineer... It is the white race who seems to dominate in terms of technology never mind who build the pyramid or who invented paper to gun powder, smart people create on top of each other not keep a secret until it was lost, they cultivate and document knowledge rather than rely on the holly book alone. These are the characteristics of smart people, even if one is born intelligent but worship only one book and become a priest / monk, all the intelligence is to tell people to behave and become ordinary eventually.

QUOTE(Angela Lee @ Apr 27 2011, 05:55 PM) Which race is the leader in your opinion? You can see with your eyes, know it by knowledge and use it everyday even believe in your heart. The answer is obvious, will you object if I say its the Malay? This post has been edited by 3dassets: Apr 27 2011, 06:23 PM |

QUOTE(Angela Lee @ Apr 30 2011, 12:34 AM) I don't know enough about it to say it. What I do believe is that (about 70% of) intelligence is determined by will, thoughts, environment and circumstances. If one is willing to learn he/she will become bright  Thanks for your comments 3dassets. I would not give a figure like %, we become intelligent if we learn and analyse, its a self initiated action and better make it a habit. IQ / EQ changes accordingly and we won't be the same person we are today in the future. |

QUOTE(Angela Lee @ May 2 2011, 10:56 AM) I came across a recent journal article that found that : "...evidence demonstrates that in intelligence, brain size, and other life history traits, East Asians average higher than do Europeans who average higher do South Asians, African Americans, or sub-Saharan Africans. The group differences are between 50 and 80% heritable..." (Rushton & Jensen, 2010) (The Open Psychology Journal, 2010, 3, 9-13) Does it mean that East Asians are more intelligent?? It is still a one person's finding, I wonder why African living in Africa are not as intelligent as those in the US / UK, the proof of environmental effect rather than gene factor. The place make people dump, only two types of utensil used on dining table, these are the places that breed smart people at first and now the environment isn't a factor anymore but education, the essential element is understand the ability to think and analyse. I was dump and hate school then fail all the way to SPM but I feel so much smarter than people around me now because I continue to learn from the environment and practice skill. |
