In Taiwan, the most engineering structures are just signed by few professional engineers, and the other professional engineers just take their licenses to raise their salaries. For the most people, they don't dare to shoulder the criminal responsibility, and therefore the public servant becomes the best career. Why? Compared with the professional engineers, the public servant can get a not bad salary without the criminal responsibility.
However, many people have their objectives in their life, so that they don't choose to become the public servants. The second choice shall be the professional engineer who doesn't sign for the engineering structures so as to avoid the criminal responsibility. Even if you don't sign for the engineering structures, you can get a higher pay which the most people call it the professional allowance. There are just few people who dare to sign for the engineering structures, so that the license becomes a tool for the pay rise.
In such kind of environment, more and more people become one of the liquid groups. The liquid groups don't care about their present job, and most of them are focused on the public servant examinations. Almost all of the best graduates become the public servant, and there are just a part of the best graduates in the society. Most Taiwanese fear to shoulder the criminal responsibility, so that the people always find the jobs without any responsibility. The professional engineers who sign for the engineering structures are not a good career in the Taiwanese thinking logic.
Let's see the 1st ranking departments in the university entrance examination. Law, Electrical Engineering and Medical Science are the 1st ranking departments of group 1, 2, and 3. Judges, Public Procurators, Lawyers, Electrical Engineers and Doctors of most branches have a high pay without any criminal responsibility. The responsibility is the main reason why Taiwanese society forms such kind of general mood, and the salary seems to be more and more on these careers to let the other people respect them.
In the foreign countries, Judges, Public Procurators, Lawyers, Electrical Engineers and Doctors are not the best careers. Why? Because these careers do not have a high pay, nobody want to pursue these careers. Normally, if you achieve higher contribution, you shall get a higher pay. However, the educational background is still the most important item, and it almost affects everyone's whole life. It means your educational process is very important, and you should make sure what you learn and understand in your whole education. I just point out a social phenomenon, and it should be solved by the government.
