N the honor goes to......... CITIBANK, with their newly launched citi clear card, a no income requirement credit card.. OMG, on one hand i will applaud Citibank for their speed in launching the card just when the ministry laxes the rules but on the other, i will sae tt indeed we are so so far behind time as compared to other countries such as the US as they ahve been using such cards since god knows when..
So when they did launch the card, it was my friend who alerted mi to it.. She was one of the first to inform mi and by then she has received her card.. Indeed it is a game of fastest person rules as by the time i was persuaded to apply for it, the waiting time has increased to the magical 2 weeks.. Kinda reminds mi of the time that i have to spend waiting when i reserve items on my shopping list.. HAHA.. So now, i have shifted to waiting for my card... How ironical..
The launch has fetched mixed reactions from the public, some supported the launch of such a crad whilst some condemned the move as irresponsible.. But i believe that indeed any responsibility should be borne by the parents and the child who applies for it..
Indeed, parents should think twice about the matter before pushing the burden to others.. In the past, when we did wrong, parents will admit and apologise, but nowadays, i believe that children are indeed a pampered lot as parents will shield them from any blame and punishment even if it is their fault. Hence, i realli cannot condone people who readily push the blame and esponsibility to others rather than themselves..
An update into my life, nothing much has changed for the past week, except that i am now busy planning for the next BIG class gathering... Shopping and watching movies are still part of my weekly or rather daily routine... Hahahaa
2 more weeeks of holidaes.. sob sob...
