I somehow feel this is good for any of those countries in between the western capital based democracies and the extreme of North Korea: it will backfire sooner or later, but without any of this silly measures trigging public awareness, people would keep believing in their leaders and brainwashed culture.

Maybe it is what it takes to move forward from a dictatorship to a (fake) democracy these days.

> You must have discipline and passion. You must be your own boss and have a plan. You should enjoy learning on your own. Treat time as a precious resource.

Sadly, most of that is not taught at junior/middle school. Getting out of the labor force factory that 'education' is in most countries, may not be the best idea even for the majority of 'smart kids', as you say.
