That's why Li Ao said Singaporeans are stupid!!Originally posted by Joe Black:People in Singapore cannot think... they have been brain washed since young. It is in the textbook, history book and in all media. Singapore is just marginally better than a communist ran country, but even then soon China will surpass Singapore in terms of freedom.
I understand that it is not easy to have a fully democratic society in Asian countries. Asians unlike the westerners are used to being ruled by autocracy leaders if not dictatorship. However, as the societies mature and so are the people more affluent in the western values, people will start to demand democracy in their countries.
Sadly, people in Singapore do not see that. They (most of them) are just apathy to freedom and the notion of equality. Singapore society typifies George Orwell's "Animal Farm"... and guess what there will be no sympathy from the rest of the world because you guys are just to gutless to change. All you forumers can talk but when it comes to action (voting time), many of you guys just vote PAP!...
So, guess what do you get, higher GST, public transport fares, etc.... serve you right!

You know why? 5% or 7% or 10%, you all are still comfortable. Doesn't affect you significantly. You will just carry on your lifestyle with little change.

so, we will have to wait for his father to.....
Haha, no disrespect, but you'd be better off chanelling your efforts in some subtle way to alleviate global poverty or improve environmental conservation efforts instead of preaching political theories/reasonings to those already brainwashed by the fascists...Originally posted by Joe Black:People in Singapore cannot think... they have been brain washed since young.
