This was forwarded by a friend of prince, and it speaks about the reality, though, not applicable to all of the human species, but a portion of it.
Dr. M was about to send the first Malaysian rocket into space.
Three potential astronauts were called for an interview -
Muthu, Mohammad and Ah Beng.
Dr. M interviewed the Indian: " Muthu, this is a
dangerous mission, how much do you think you should be paid for
it?" Muthu thinks to himself and said, "One million ringgit."
"It is a lot, but why?" asks Dr. M.
"Whiskey is very expensive nowadays, Datuk" replied Muthu.
"I see," said Dr. M. "Thank you...please ask Mohammad
to come in."
So the Mohammad walked up, and was asked the similar question.
"Uh...2 million boleh lah," replied Mohammad,
"Two million? That's a lot of money! Even Muthu only asked for one million!"
"You see, Datuk," explained Mat. "I have 4 wives and 15
children ... so 20 of us in the family, we need a lot of money to
support ourselves..."
"I see," said Dr. M. "Okay, can you ask Ah Beng to
come in now?"
Ah Beng walked in and Dr. M asks, "Ah Beng, this
is a dangerous mission, how much do you think you should be paid?"
Ah Chong thinks for a while, and said, "3 million."
Mahathir was shocked. "What?!?!" 3 million? Why?!"
Ah Chong beckoned Dr. M to come closer, and whispered,
"One million you keep, one million I keep, and then one
more million to send Muthu into space."
