recess time?

i was reading this article by hishamuddin rais and at the same time, i remember what dean have said about our country recession. dean said that if we could analyze clearly, our country will have recession in every 10 years. and the next recession was scheduled on 2008, if i'm not mistaken. and what hisham said in his article couldn't be more true, except that he's stressing on IT course while as i see it, any course will face the same risk. just let me put it this way. i still have 3 more years to complete my studies, and if i complete my studies by schedule, it would be 2008 at that time, the forecasted recession year. even now, they've estimated that about 90000 students are unemployed, what if it's true that we will have another recession on 2008? how many people have loose their job during the 1997 recession? and how many students have loose their privillage to study overseas during that time? this just got me thinking. my teacher once said during secondary school that my batch was the critical batch. he said that because after our batch, the education system will change a lot. so if we're somewhat left behind, we have to cope up with the education system that we're not familliar with. now i can see that it's not only the education system, it's the economic system as well.

i'm not commenting on hisham's writing. it's just got me thinking about other situation as well. but i agree on some of what he said, not all. just read it, and think for urself.
