I think in singapore, there is absolutely no shortage of talents to join political parties. Afterall, how many parties do we need or talking about? right?
So, there is enough talents, in my view to form a few parties.
PAP is saying it wants to recruit more. This means they believe there are more talents.
The real problem is not talent.
The only thing we as voters should be concerned about is how to improve our Democracy. How to mature it.
Good political parties should be fair.
Good political parties should understand and respect the meaning of Democracy.
Failing to do so simply means such a party is not 100% democratic.
Either you follow the democracy route or you don't.
Which is it?
For Democracy to survive, I would think the playing field should be fair.
I would think a certain level of freedom should be allowed.
I would think FEAR should be thrown away.
I would not think DURESS is democracy. Not that it exists.
IRAQ certainly had duress applied on its PEOPLE. So did N.Korea.
So, we should ensure no DURESS ever be applied on our PEOPLE. Not that it exists.
If DURESS exists, I would not say DEMOCRACY exist.
What activities for the public CAN WP organise? Really.
I would seriously like to know. -

you see, some of the forums that i've asked, almost all is pro-PAP, haha, been reading some posts in sgForums and felt that the people here have more to say -
i value your sentiments, because i also feel that way. however, here are some questions for youOriginally posted by reddressman:I think in singapore, there is absolutely no shortage of talents to join political parties. Afterall, how many parties do we need or talking about? right?

I would seriously like to know.
1) is there any way we can do to change this?
2) what will Singapore be like if we for the next election there is a change of leaders? my point being, many people do say that the other parties are rather inexperienced.
3) the mindset of Singaporeans are more or less set that there is no way of improving our government, therefore, if really we have the democracy we want, are we ready for it?
4) are petitions allowed in Sinagapore? for instance in Switzerland, if the people are unhappy about a law or rule passed down, they can collect signatures and fight back
5) is it true that due to duress that Singapore is a much safer place? looking at other countries, having those mob protests, doesn't it seem dangerous? my last point being, are Singaporeans willing to stand up for their country and do that
i've been speaking to taxi uncles, our foreign "talents" (my tutors and lecturers), many of them gave me very good answers, but seriously, nobody wants trouble, including myself. put it this way, i like the peace here, but it's kind of a high price to pay and sometimes i feel the people up there are getting more and more muddle head, thus asking to gain knowledge and perhaps someday to exercise my vote wisely -
frankly, i felt the reason they gave was valid. and i do wonder if WP is really just wanting to celebrate or to do some promoting tooOriginally posted by Kouyou:cycling indoor? i must praise them for their efforts -
can you quote me some of those activities you mentioned about PAP? perhaps then i'd be able to compare and give myself a better judgementOriginally posted by reddressman:Indoor cycling. Excellent idea. But will this work?
