To raise a global kid, what this article is trying to tell us about is the change in the mindset of people on how to educate their children. They are starting to feel that education is important, instead of just having morals. As shown by Jim Rogers, who brings his daughter to Singapore's Nanyang Primary School for her just to study. This is due to the fact that he has seen that education is important in preparing his child for the future.
In this fast paced world, one must have to continuously strive in order to move forward. Failure to do so will just set you back. As such, one must work hard for the future in order to obtain the best. This is what all parents would want for their children... To obtain the best possible life for their child. As such, they feel that a good education is one of the key aspects of getting a good job. Morals play a part too, but in current day society, education is the top dog. One will not be able to go far without the right qualifications and the right material, and as such modern parents strive to give their children all which they need to obtain a better future.
However, the article also argues which type of education is the best. In Roger's case, being billingual is important to obtain a good job. In my opinion, the best type of education would be the one that fits your passion and aptitude. It should help you to achieve what you want, because that way, you will give your best, and succeeding in life would be a walk in the park, or in Singaporean terms, 'No Kick'.
