I wonder what is your qualification and what are you doing. Talk as if you are of higher mortal.

I can confirm you have not been to nus or ntu before. There are china profs in nus who can mix up one and two in English.

well you see, most lecturers in SIMs are not profs.
btw, most SIM- students dont know what's "prof". guys there are not "profs".
just lecturers.
SIM is not classified as a proper university - working in sim will not get you a professorship.

Because he is from China his English is supposed to be bad? Because his English is bad he lectures in SIM? Having a PhD and working in SIM is bizarre? Maybe he is volunteering to help other students to do well? It's all a question mark but people always pick out the negative ones all the time.
Don't you know to get LSE in the first place you need GMAT and IELTS scores? Then if he dodged that bullet then how did he make it to PhD in NUS if his English was bad? Are you saying NUS accepts students who cannot speak well?

its an open secret that the 3 local unis do not hire their own phd students for obvious reasons - there is no way nus will hire him on their teaching staff.
i've contemplated doing a post grad with nus - but theres no point. you can only lecture at unis in malaysia/brunei etc. or private unis where you wont get the professorship.
this guy obviously cant get a job elsewhere. granted hes smart.
and pls be honest with yourself. if you can qualify for nus, would you knowingly choose to study in sim? thats probably the reason why he went into sim. hence, my hypothesis is correct.

Then if that is the case, what's the big hooha about NUS not employing their own PHD students?
