Actually those who were called Quitters, are the ones who has the ability to Quit SIngapore, and make it elsewhere with their Talents, and financial resources. But alot of us, many of us in fact, are just stuck here mainly lacking in funds to do so along with little or no talents.Originally posted by quency:since they are so "intellgent", so "ingenious", then why dont they think of new ways to earn more foreign curriencies, instead of using brainless policies to keep forcing citizens to pay and make money out from them?
they cannot come up with new ideas and policies to protect the welfare of the people, they often opt for the easy-way-out, brainless, foreign trash lover policies.
they even think foreign trash babies are better than singaporean babies, they cant be bothered/cannot think of new policies to encourage and increase birthrate level.
since they cant be botherd about singaporean, why should singaporeans be patriotic? actually they so call the quitters are actually the smarters.
In my opinion, NS is good as follows:Originally posted by quency:really, its their ways of treating fellow singaporeans that I feel its very wrong. take for example the men are being paid so lowly for ns, its like really cheap labour, cheaper than the banga.
Basically, people here are too caught up in commitments to family, career, and material wealth to risk losing everything in a tango with our gov.Originally posted by monoslayer:People should not be afraid of their governments. Governments should be afraid of ther people.
Please describe on gvt likness for China FT.Originally posted by ShutterBug:In my opinion, NS is good as follows:
>> Builds a person's character, and fitness
>> Security for our country
.. security of a country has a price, therefore low pay for NS men.
I can understand and accept NS.
What gets on my nerves is our gov's blind faith in China FTs, neglect of our locals' welfare & means of lifelihood, and refusal to proactively reduce living costs.
This require NO further detailing, as you can read a multitude of threads on China-related issues in this forum.Originally posted by will4:Please describe on gvt likness for China FT.
dr chee should count his blessings tat he din end up like mr. chia thye poh. he is a man wif ideas n passion but somehow i find tat his behaviour disturbing...Originally posted by ShutterBug:Basically, people here are too caught up in commitments to family, career, and material wealth to risk losing everything in a tango with our gov.
One very fine example is Dr Chee; he now has NOTHING to lose.
But if there are more of people like Dr Chee, lets say about 500,000 of people like him, I think we may be able to see possible changes in our political system.
Problem is, he has so much GUTS, I fear he may get kicked out.
Our gov always get rid of anyone who has a formidable "bite".
He has a wife n daughter ro look after n basically he is dependent on donation.Originally posted by ShutterBug:Basically, people here are too caught up in commitments to family, career, and material wealth to risk losing everything in a tango with our gov.

the govt should also reward those who have rendered services to the country and at least provide fellow singapore with better pay for being part of the force in protecting the country. they have loads and loads and loads of money and are able to give better rewards to the people, but they didnt, they just cant be bothered.Originally posted by ShutterBug:In my opinion, NS is good as follows:

To me, and only in my opinion, he is like modern Jesus; taking the punches for all of us who dared not behave or spoken up like he has.Originally posted by will4:He has a wife n daughter ro look after n basically he is dependent on donation.![]()
-_-"' dude, to associate him wif jesus is too much lah....Originally posted by ShutterBug:To me, and only in my opinion, he is like modern Jesus; taking the punches for all of us who dared not behave or spoken up like he has.
I used to think he is crazy, but after reading up what he's all about, I totally RESPECT the man.
He has so many questions, our gov has not yet been able to answer.
I feel that our gov should put in place some form of filtering system, so that truly TALENTED individuals and investors gets accepted into our country, while the scoundrels and common thieves, gets filtered out.Originally posted by will4:What do u suggest to deal with FT?

It seemed the study mama created trouble from China but other countries like no trouble causingOriginally posted by ShutterBug:I feel that our gov should put in place some form of filtering system, so that truly TALENTED individuals and investors gets accepted into our country, while the scoundrels and common thieves, gets filtered out.
With such a filtering system in place, there's no need to put a limit on how many comes in here - because there can only be so many smart people.
Currently, all sorts of low-life from China are creating havoc here - haven't you noted the increased in murder cases involving China women?? The number of PDMMs, illegal hookers, and whatever - even wombs for rent! OMG!
im angry that they cant be bothered to protect the welfare of fellow singaporeans and still expect the people to be patriotic and at the same time still continue to claim million dollar pay.Originally posted by ShutterBug:Actually those who were called Quitters, are the ones who has the ability to Quit SIngapore, and make it elsewhere with their Talents, and financial resources.

This is one major way Singapore is losing local talents; through ever increasing emigration numbers.
And true enough, in the past, one week before National Day I can see a lot of flags outside HDB flat windows - today, I only see a few scattered flags hung by endearingly faithful and loyal citizens - they might even be PRs....
Ideas? I think they hardly ever had any - they're always tapping on other's. I wonder what's the high salaries for....
Their day will come, their days are already numbered as of the recent GE's results.
Yes, totally agreed with u! They always tell us to accept low pay in order to remain competitive n go for job trainings. Want us to continue put up with the sufferrings while they themselves song song take millions of dollar. WTF!Originally posted by quency:im angry that they cant be bothered to protect the welfare of fellow singaporeans and still expect the people to be patriotic and at the same time still continue to claim million dollar pay.
Yah....why not 3 of us go applied for job CEO of singtel, with S$3m a year 3 people can do the same job ...ever heard "san ge chou pi jiang, seng guo zhuge liang"Originally posted by NUS_Superst@r:Yes, totally agreed with u!

they could simple provide some welfare to improve the lives of fellow singaporeans, but they simply did not and will not be bothered to. This really chills me, it is meaningless to be singaporean, the people do not have to be patriotic anymore.Originally posted by NUS_Superst@r:Yes, totally agreed with u!
