G : Government is fully aware of the situation and the reason why some singaporeans prefer to live overseas is not because life here is tough, but because they want to get more exposure to the western cultures and thinking. Hence it will be foolish for the government to take extreme measure to favour Singapore at the expense of FT who are here to contribute to our society. Anyway, Singapore is only a 40plus years old country, hence in one generation time, all existing immigrant citizens will be as singaporeans as any Singaporean we have today. I dont see that why singapore government has to worry.
will 4's reply : The govt is already worried as 800 local migrated to other countries each year according to National day rally speech last year. MM Lee has stated 150000 local have left for good. It is not about the tough life but more of the quality of the life in here. I wonder if u read the a report stating PR will prefer to retain their original citizenship compared to conerting to local citizenship.
G : what is 800 compare to 8500 new Singapore citizens we have each year.
Furthermore, how many Singaporeans who migrated has actually given up their Singapore citizenship.
Is that what you call cannot accept the fact? or are you meowing for the sake of meowing? -

other countries each year but MM Lee said a total of 150000 local migrated ea.
For these 150000 locals migrated, since when they started migrating ? Coming back to the immigration problem, as a local urself
1) Do u think in ur honest opinion, the immigration among the local will continue to rise more?
2) Do u think Spore is becoming like HK in the sense that HK people like to migrate to Canada as for local like to migrate to Australia?
3) Spore is becoming an ageing society but the govt recent move to cut subsidy for the PR. Is it a move to encourage more PR to be local?
4) 8500 PR became citizen out 50000 for the past ten years? This is only 17%.
What has gone wrong?
5) I read some month back some of the PR prefer their countries back to Spore. Please list the possible reason why they like their countries better?
Some quote it is NS as the problem. We already have local grumbling about NS. Can the foreign professional not be worried about it? -
Gazelle, is it okay to ask u a question?
Is this problem about migrating among the locals bothering u too much? -

if the project is not enticing enough, it may not be sustainable in the long run, thus ruining collection of taxes in the long run. lots lots.
Comparing a 4D booth to casino is just like comparing a hawker stall to a restaurant.

could you tell us which smart government pays itself millions?

please stop defaming atobe
G : Like I said again, the question is not about who is the biggest winning, but will MICE activities benefit Singaporeans.
your question is not of interest to me. the question that is of interest to me is why in every decision, the greatest benefactor has to be the govt. -

G : Calling people stupid doesnÂ’t make you smart.
it may not, but it at least explains why you cannot see logic.
And the question here is IS Malaysia and Shanghai losing money hosting F1?
the fact that they are making money doesn't guarantee that we will make money. if i'm not mistaken, official calculations record losses.
And based on your argument, are you suggesting that Singapore should not attempt to do anything unless it has never been done before?
no. i am saying that if my neighbour becomes rich selling chicken rice doesn't mean i will get rich selling chicken rice. that's all.
Like we should not have SIA because Malaysia already has their own airline? We shouldnÂ’t have universal studio in Singapore because they already have that in Japan and America?
since i'm not saying what you say i am saying, i cannot be saying this rubbish that you just spewed.
ladies and gentlemen, here is as yet another attempt by him to twist and misrepresent my words. a perpetual liar, i cannot trust what he claims is said by others. so unless he quotes the exact words used by others, he is lying and defaming the rest.
G : I only need you to comment if the is indeed a PM Badawi visit to Singapore to influence Singapore government to award the Sentosa IR deal to Genting. (nothing to do with our minister visiting the world)
i need you to show me the exact statement that suggests this and not some concoction of yours.
G : If they can afford, the F1 project will make sense, if they cant it wont.
jumping to conclusions. the fact that F1 makes money in Shanghai suggests that it may make money in singapore. but it doesn't guarantee that it would or that F1 will work. Ong Beng Seng said so himself, it's his deep personal interest.
furthermore being able to afford doesn't imply willingness to pay. also, the shanghai population is so much larger than ours.
G : Because Chinese from China is different from Malaysian in Malaysia.
if they illustrate the same thing and your response is also the same, why not group them together instead of posting separately?
G : I am just quoting what Atobe said. You should stop asking me, send him a PM as ask him.
no, you're the only person here capable of misrepresenting the words of others. show me those are his exact words and not twisted by you.
G : Obviously you are still not aware that there is no such visiting in the first place and that Atobe is just making up story to defame Singapore government,
you have a reputation of misrepresenting the statements of fellow forummers. show me the exact statement made by atobe. -

SL : this is the more impt conclusion "the benefit from the IR will largely accrue to the govt"
G : Do you have what it take to support your argument or are you just like the other who is only capable to speculating BS?
SL : yes
G : yes, doesnt mean anything, please back it up!!
2) the whole objective of IRs is for the government to collect gaming taxes.
SL : it is the number one reason, even oxford mushroom agrees
G : If you say so, then why does the government suggest the Venetian LV 30/70 business model and limit the floor area of gaming business in the IR?
SL : various possibilities: anything less enticing would result in less than attractive bids or bids of the wrong kind. the floor area is calculated to be sufficient enough to earn the kind of revenue the govt desires. you go to the sprawling NTUC hypermart in AMK and you'd find a very small but prominent corner selling 4D. you don't need a big space to earn big bucks from gambling.
G : If the government main objective is to collect tax, why should they border if the project is enticing or not? Plus do you know what sort of revenue the government desire?

G : Casino is probably the most profitable, sustainable and least risk component of the whole IR project, hence if the government is only keen on collecting gaming tax revenue I donÂ’t see why you even question its sustainability.
3) Singapore economy to will become like Monaco because we have F1 SL : in what ways?
G : You ask Atobe
SL : why ask atobe when it is your claim?
G : Atobe “”With the IR and these Up-Market Developments, the Government had declared that Singapore shall be the next Monaco to be a playground for the Rich and Famous”” http://www.sgforums.com/?action=thread_display&thread_id=252941&page=1
4) The reason why genting won the sentosa IR bid is because of PM Badawi
SL : back up what you're saying
G : Ask Atobe (thatÂ’s his claim)
SL : i quote you "4) The reason why genting won the sentosa IR bid is because of PM Badawi". it is your statement so back it up if you have the balls. don't hide behind the skirt / trousers of atobe.
G : Obviously you are not aware that this a ATOBEÂ’s claim (Go do some reading)
SL : i am aware that you have been twisting other people's words. back up your words if you have balls.
G : Atobe “the reasons that Genting can beat Eigth Wonders for the Sentosa IR, considering the visit made by PM Badawi at a critical moment of the bidding process, which is all too much to be a co-incidence”
http://www.sgforums.com/?action=thread_display&thread_id=252941&page=1
And yes, I do have the balls, and they are both functioning very well,.
5) Rich people attracted to singapore is comparable to Singaporeans going to JB to buy cheap grocery and food.
SL : rich people coming to singapore to stay will inflate housing prices here. at least singaporeans going to JB to buy groceries won't stay in JB and cause property price jump.
G : Yup it is different, but in my opinion, you argument is misguided by your interest that property prices in Singapore should remain flat or inline with your personal income growth.
SL : if the argument is right, it is right. the need to keep property prices in check is not a misguided interest but an impt economic variable that any govt smart enough would come to realize
G : Could you tell us which smart government in this world is doing what you claim should be done??
SL : could you tell us which smart government pays itself millions?
G : Plenty, the Prince of Oman, Saudi, Kuwait, Brunei, etc. However thats beside the point, could you please give us an example of a smart government that is doing what your claim should be done.
6) Mcdonald market strategy is to get kids addicted to their burger and fries and they will eat till they die.
SL : what are you trying to imply?
G : Ask Atobe (his claim is that McdonaldÂ’s food are addictive and you will eat till you die)
SL : i can't find that in his postings. are you defaming him?
G : Really? Obviously you have been reading the wrong thread. If you are polite enough to say please I will show it do you. I promise.
SL : please stop defaming atobe
G : you are making yourself look like a mad dog trying to defend your master atobe
7) MICE activities in Singapore will not benefit Singaporeans.
SL : but won't it benefit the govt a whole lot more than ordinary singaporeans?
G : The question is not about weather the government will benefit more or less, it if it will benefit Singaporeans. Since you are at it, can I know why you say that the government will benefit more than the private companies that organize MICE, the participants the seal business deal during the MICE, and the companies and Singaporeans that are supporting the MICE activities?
SL : the most impt conclusion for singaporeans to take away is that the govt is the biggest winner in any decision, including the casinos. with or without the casino, the income from MICE and deals are just the same for private companies. hence the new addition - casino, mainly benefits one entity - the govt.
G : Like I said again, the question is not about who is the biggest winning, but will MICE activities benefit Singaporeans.
SL : your question is not of interest to me. the question that is of interest to me is why in every decision, the greatest benefactor has to be the govt
G: It is not you are not interested, it is because you are incapable, and stop arguing like a spoilt child, that is very childish!! -

8.) Tourists in Singapore, will only spend money at Marina Bay Sands and RWS
SL : is the whole idea of marina sands to earn money from tourists buying satay?
G : No, their main income will be coming from the MICE, gaming, F&B and hotel. But what is your point of asking about satay? Confused?
SL : of the items you listed, MICE, F&B and hotel are the same whether or not we have a casino. so those components don't change whether or not we have a casino. hence, the only item left - gaming is the only reason for the casino.
G : They canÂ’t be the same because without a casino license, no companies will be willing to invest more than $5b in this IR project.
SL : if a place is attractive in and of itself for MICE activities, then whether or not we build a $5 billion casino won't change that. hence the purpose of the casino cannot be anything other than gambling dollars.
G : The amount of investment one is willing to invest in the MICE, Hotels and F&B outlet is very dependent on the risk level of the project and the reason why LV Sand and Genting is willing to take such a risk is because of the casino license. Hence it is wrong to say that with or without the casino license Sheldon Adelson will still go ahead with the investment.
9) Countries like Malaysia and Shanghai are losing money hosting F1
SL : taiwan and hong kong businessmen making money in china doesn't mean we would make money too.
G : I donÂ’t see a logic is what you are trying to say. The question should be, are you sure they are losing money? Or is atobe trying to distort information?
SL : i understand, you have proven to be most stupid that's your question. my take is this: if we can screw up in china when our competitors, taiwan and hong kong can fluorish there, there's no reason to say that malaysia and shanghai make money means we're sure to make money
G : Calling people stupid doesnÂ’t make you smart. And the question here is IS Malaysia and Shanghai losing money hosting F1? And based on your argument, are you suggesting that Singapore should not attempt to do anything unless it has never been done before? Like we should not have SIA because Malaysia already has their own airline? We shouldnÂ’t have universal studio in Singapore because they already have that in Japan and America?
SL : it may not, but it at least explains why you cannot see logic. the fact that they are making money doesn't guarantee that we will make money. if i'm not mistaken, official calculations record losses. no. i am saying that if my neighbour becomes rich selling chicken rice doesn't mean i will get rich selling chicken rice. that's all. since i'm not saying what you say i am saying, i cannot be saying this rubbish that you just spewed.
ladies and gentlemen, here is as yet another attempt by him to twist and misrepresent my words. a perpetual liar, i cannot trust what he claims is said by others. so unless he quotes the exact words used by others, he is lying and defaming the rest.
G : You are very mistaken and I am not even surprise. Honestly I donÂ’t see what exactly are you driving at when you are trying to question the viability of Singapore hosting F1. IMO you are very childish.
10) there were multiple PM Badawi visits to Singapore before and after the Sentosa IR announcement.
SL : PM Lee made a personal visit to PM Thatsin just before the signing of the Shincorp deal.
G : PM Lee visit to Thailand as got nothing to do with PM BadawiÂ’s visit to Singapore. Obviously you are not aware of what we are talking about, because you should ask yourself this question, (Did PM Badawi visited Singapore in 2006?) before jumping into conclusion that he did. (Example of blind leading the blind??)
SL : PM Lee's meeting with Thaksin immediately before the Shin Corp deal is a good example of the possibility of state involvement in the Shin Corp fiasco.
G : I only need you to comment if the is indeed a PM Badawi visit to Singapore to influence Singapore government to award the Sentosa IR deal to Genting. (nothing to do with our minister visiting the world)
SL : i need you to show me the exact statement that suggests this and not some concoction of yours.
G : You have already asked this once, donÂ’t have to repeat because you will embarrass atobe twice.
12) Chinese cant afford to attend F1 race in Shanghai
SL : so?
G : Your question should not be so, it should be are you sure they canÂ’t afford?
SL : my question is still - so? so what if they can or cannot afford?
G : If they can afford, the F1 project will make sense, if they cant it wont.
SL : jumping to conclusions. the fact that F1 makes money in Shanghai suggests that it may make money in singapore. but it doesn't guarantee that it would or that F1 will work. Ong Beng Seng said so himself, it's his deep personal interest.
furthermore being able to afford doesn't imply willingness to pay. also, the shanghai population is so much larger than ours.
G : There are statistic to support that the host nation or city will reap in about S$100 to 150m of tourism revenue during the F1 weekend, and that is excluding the ticket sales. I think you should just leave the marketing responsibility to OBS and this team.
13) Malaysians earning in Ringgit cannot afford to attend F1 race in Malaysia
SL : and?
G : Same as question (12)
SL : then why you post twice?
G : Because Chinese from China is different from Malaysian in Malaysia.
SL : if they illustrate the same thing and your response is also the same, why not group them together instead of posting separately?
G : childish!!
14) Cost of Shanghai F1 facility, US$3,000,000,000 ($3b)
SL : back up your figures
G : Ask Atobe or maybe M13, thatÂ’s their claim.
SL : i quote what you wrote "14) Cost of Shanghai F1 facility, US$3,000,000,000 ($3b)"
so it is your claim, back it up if you have the balls. you may ask atobe for help
G : I am just quoting what Atobe said. You should stop asking me, send him a PM as ask him.
SL : no, you're the only person here capable of misrepresenting the words of others. show me those are his exact words and not twisted by you.
G : Atobe : Considering that the China Formula ONE organiser has a contract with Formula ONE to host the series from 2004 to 2010, and that they have spent about US$3 Billion to build the Formula ONE facilities, and US$20 Million annually to maintain it, and with the gate receipts for 150,000 tickets bringing a revenue of US$36 Million from the 2004 race - it will be brilliant mathematics to find this event to produce any net gain for the Organiser, and China.
http://www.sgforums.com/?action=thread_display&thread_id=252941&page=9
15) Only Singapore Straits Times cover PM Badawi's visit to Singapore in 2006
SL : but straits times is the main newspaper in singapore isn't it?
G : Do you have reasons to believe that such high profile news will only be covered by 3 media companies and that you cant find news coverage of his visit from internet and our government website?
SL : doesn't change the fact that the main source of news for the masses would come from govt controlled news media
G : Obviously you are still not aware that there is no such visiting in the first place and that Atobe is just making up story to defame Singapore government,
SL : you have a reputation of misrepresenting the statements of fellow forummers. show me the exact statement made by atobe.
G : This is the 3rd time you are asking me the same question. -

i say again, what we need is a balance between remaining competitive and ensuring that no one is left behind.
and is Singapore IR an example of protectionism when none of the winners are Singapore companies.
singapore IR cannot be used to illustrate protectionism because there is no local gambling company to protect.
G : Could you offer Singapore an alternative to prosperous like we did in the past 45 years without having an open economy?
could you show me where in this argument did i say that singapore should have a closed economy?
G : I didnÂ’t, I am just highlight the BS that he is contributing to this forum.
like the "open economy" bullshit "above which you imply i am against when i am not?
G : As a consumer, do we need to always fly with SIA?
how often do we ordinary singaporeans get to fly with SIA?
Could you tell us what do you mean by treating SIA well and what you mean that the old man will kick me out?
just an extension of your statement "If SIA doest threat you well, you should consider leaving the country"
G : thatÂ’s what I thought too, but according to Soul_Rage, there is not difference.
come on, show me the words "Local and foreign companies offer the same benefits to Singapore's future and economy" is said anywhere else by any other person. stop misquoting and misrepresenting other people.
G : Soul_Rage ”In the IR tender, the govt DID give the tender to foreign companies. Why is that so? Its because none of our companies here have the experience of running a casino or such a huge resort, thus its reasonable for the govt to give this to the foreign company experienced in such a project”
http://www.sgforums.com/?action=thread_display&thread_id=250502&page=2
By saying that, he is claiming that Genting won because they are capable for running the whole IR by themselves and the reason why Keppeland and Capitaland lost is because they have never run an IR because despite the fact that they are partnering companies like MGM, Kerzner,
read the exchanges. agree wholeheartedly with soul rage. you have misrepresented him.
this is a casino project so the casino operator is key. keppeland and capitaland are local partners, not the main contenders. as such, it was a choice between Genting + Universal studios, Kerzner and 8th Wonder, all foreign companies. hence, soul rage is right to say that "govt to give this to the foreign company experienced in such a project" as there is no local gambling company to give to.
your interpretation is a grave misrepresentation of soul rage's posting.
given that all three gambling bidders are foreigner companies, and that there are no local gambling companies involved, this example does not support your statement "the result of the IR tender is a clear indication that the government will not favour local firms just because they are local"
G : Like I said again, whatever you see here, are just BS coming from soul_rage, and thank you very much for questioning them.
it is not bullshit. i agree with him.
G : This has no relationship to how the government handle its projects.
all else being equal, i would prefer a govt that doesn't write forums during office hours.
G: We have foreign footballers who are playing for S-League and have been offered citizenship because of their talent in sport. Hence do you think it is right to say that all FT are highly educated?
show me where and who said that "S-league foreign footballers are all highly educated individual". you must have misrepresented someone else's words again.
Are you sure that nobody watches S-League? Are those people seating in the stadium ghost or something?
what are they compared to the many more glued in front of TVs watching EPL? and all those who watch S-league are more likely than not to watch EPL as well.
G : Are you also saying that those badminton player from China who have become Singaporeans are highly educated?
show me where and who wrote "You need to be highly educated to be consider a talent."
G: Really, mind showing me where you get that from?
mind showing me where you got "Income gap = living standard" first?
G : Could you give us some example of rich peopleÂ’s business?
i can but i wonder if i should also propose a snow leopard's challenge and get someone to go under a skirt. -

Yar, you are accusing Singapore government of awarding the Sentosa IR to Genting because PM Badawi visited Singapore twice in 2006 to seal the deal.
I am asking you, can you proof to us that PM Badawi did visit Singapore 2 months before and after the award of the Sentosa IR project in oct 2006? Can you? -

PROPOSED OVERHAUL AND UPGRADING OF CURRENT CONSTITUTION
The current constitution (Singapore) is too vague and general without definitions of rights and privileges of citizens of clear divisions of duties and responsibilities between component branches of government.
Hence in its present form the constitution is vulnerable to abuse or tweaking of its provisions to suit the narrow interests of the party in power for the time being.
The rights of citizens and the election processes are clearly being jeopardized or trampled upon to suit the pragmatic policies of the government of the day.
In the hand of rogue government, it can be worse as the constitution could be ignored or tweaked to suit the narrow interests of the political parties in power.
It is therefore critical to revise the constitution to prevent abuse or tweaking by any political party in power as follows:-
(1) To safeguard the freedom of citizens to elect any candidate of their choice based on the universal One Man One Vote principle so that no individual who wishes to stand for election will not be hindered from doing so by being subjected to any pre-conditions like the need to group himself or herself with some other candidates in any block or group of constituencies or raising of election deposit to jeopardize his chance of standing for election.
(2) To provide a more suitable alternative of ensuring equitable representation of minority racial candidates by providing for 20% of seats of parliaments to be reserved for contest among minority racial candidates.
(3) To prohibit use of block- or group-representation voting system to avoid shackling of the one-man-one-vote universal electoral system.
(4) To safeguard the Basic rights of all citizens irrespective of race, culture, religion or tenets so that citizens will be guaranteed by the state of freedoms of speech, political beliefs, right to stand for election without any impediments of any forms or being sued for civil libel for utterances made about policies or practices of government in power in the course of electioneering.
(5) To refer all situations of conflicts of interests e.g. appointments of judiciary, approval or recommendations of salaries or bonuses or retirements schemes for ministers and MPs of government executives, legislature, judiary and civil service to an independent panel with representations from a cross section of people so as to establish primary Rule of law, justice, fairness and equity for nation building.
(6) To Establish a low-cost independent panel open to observers from UN agencies to oversee election process and political participation by citizens.
(7) To Establish powers and procedures for Investigation and adjudication by an idependent sub-court of reported conflict of interests
(9) To fundamentally safeguard choice and association as conditions essential to encourage further growth of social, cultural and economic vibrancy, entrepreneurship and creativity of citizens.
The constitution should be the central document of nationhood to nurture the growth of social, cultural and economic vibrancy of the citizens to bring about a more more competitive, entrepreneurial and united country.
Singapore will then grow further as a nation with entrepreneurship and creativity accountability and transparency in the governing of the country irrespective of belief, cult, race, religion or political views or inclinations. -
