Persistent Untruths About WeChat Wallet in Singapore

1. WeChat Wallet is not allowed in Singapore

Wechat Wallet is an e-wallet service much like Paypal or Grab money.  But it is NOT a crypto-currency like Bitcoin.  WeChat Wallet is allowed in Singapore and many people are using it everyday to pay for purchases in restaurants, shops and even training companies like ours.  The only currency allowed in WeChat Wallet in Singapore is the Chinese yuan or Renminbi. 
WeChat Wallet money is real because you need to have real Chinese yuan inside.  There are only 2 ways to fill up money in your Wallet: get someone to transfer to you or purchase Chinese yuan from an authorised WeChat agent like Fomo Pay.

2. Cannot Open WeChat Wallet in Singapore
Anyone can open Wechat Wallet in Singapore without the need to have a bank account opened physically in China. You simply use your Visa or Mastercard credit card to authenticate yourself. The process takes about 3 minutes.  In our classes, all our students hands-on to open WeChat Wallet inside the class. Some even did a real transaction in the class, like giving out or receiving red packets. 

3. WeChat is Insecure
WeChat is secure because it is backed by Asia's highest value company Tencent Holdings, and the China government. In Shenzhen, WeChat ID is used to replace physical identity card. WeChat is secure also because any transaction involving money requires a password pin, and all transfers of money that are not effected within 24 hours are simply returned to the sender.  WeChat security is enhanced by a unique requirement of NOT requiring a mobile number to create a WeChat account.

For more information on how to use WeChat like a pro and get business from tapping into WeChat, contact Andy Ng, who has been conducting over 25 WeChat classes fro August 2017 to Jan 2018

In one scene, the recruits were about to start their 3-day field camp.  Their Officer-in-Command asked them, "Before we moved out, anybody not feeling well?"  All the soldiers replied loudly, "No Sir!!!" "Gentlemen", continued the Officer, "Every time the training gets tougher, one thought comes to your mind, 'Why Must I Serve National Service?' "My answer to you is, 'If Not You, Then Who Else?'" Wow!  What a powerful phrase!  If Not You, Who Else may mean: You are the most suitable person, and we can't find anyone better than you.  This is appreciation at the highest level How can you push this responsibility to someone else? I am making a request to you specifically, please don't reject my request Can you find me another person more suitable than you? Please refer me anot...

How I Became a Fortune Teller: Leveraging NLP, Fear and Greed, and Motivational Theories

Becoming a fortune teller wasn’t part of my childhood dreams. It started as an experiment, fueled by my curiosity about human behavior and the subtle forces that drive our decisions. Over time, what began as a study of psychology and human interaction evolved into an unexpected career—one where I use the tools of NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming), the primal drivers of fear and greed, and motivational theories to help people uncover their paths. The First Step: Understanding the Human Psyche I was always fascinated by why people do what they do. During my university years, I studied psychology, particularly the works of Abraham Maslow, B.F. Skinner, and Victor Vroom. Their theories provided insights into motivation, reinforcement, and decision-making. But I wanted to move beyond the academic realm and see how these theories worked in real life. Around this time, I discovered NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming). This framework for understanding communication and behavior is based on the...
