Support Singapore, don't support political parties.

The PAP has a strong foundation in the baby boomers.
When Singapore just became independent and these baby boomers were still in their late teens to early adulthood. Then Singapore started on an aggressive pursuit of foreign investors who then came here to set up shop. These multinational corporations passed on their expertise to us and slowly Singaporeans became more educated and skilled.
There were many Singaporeans who benefited and climbed the ladder. I have a lot of friends like that, my father included. These people have seen the turbulent times and how PAP has transformed Singapore from a wasteland into today's economic prosperity.
Can't say the same for my generation born post 70s. -
I dont support any party, wether opposition or Pap, if their actions serve to be justified and corrected, i will say it out.
I will do what's right rather than popular -
I support PAP because it is the least bad.
You are not going to be happy with any government. So pick the one that causes the least discomfort. -
Cos PAP is made in singapore!
-
PAP is the solid until leh cannot the solid solid super duper.
-
The expression can be a misnomer
PAP can be the government by winning at least 43 out of 84 seats. Is it better for them to win 43 / 84, 57 / 84, or 84 / 84?

There is no one else credible out there to support.
They really gotta lengthen campaign periods and allow opposition parties to make use of mass media. This whole parading around in lorries irritate me more than anything else. -
Rule is not the right word. Govern is. I don't like a party that rules.

How did you conclude that PAP is least bad? -
You only have to look at the crappy quality of the oposition members to understand the reason.....

it is not easy to run a country, this party has done good so far for the general economy, since the babyboom period.
implementation of few policies.
But i think currently the pioneer leaders are getting older and the younger ones may not have the ability to manage it well, and they are not very much exposed or given the opportunity to try.
This system is just like running a company, whereby the members of the parliment are like General managers, your Town council or GRC MP are just like supervisior and the commoners are the workers.
Workers are always not happy with the way things are being done, too much work, cannot claim OT pay, the list go on.
Based on the current development for 30years, i think good job done so far. -
Are there any one else to support. Just like if a foodcentre is dominate by one and only 1 store, and you have to fill up your stomach. You will have to support that store. Same story here...

There is no perfect government in this world and I think the current model of governance may work better than full democracy. Full democracy make decision tat is only good the the short run. They will not make policies that is painful in the short run but good in the long run. Full democracy encourage using up as much money as possible to improve on its popularity. Democracy can only work when the country reaches a certain level of standard of living, education and maturity.
Not that the singapore governance is without flaws, but democracy is not ideal as well. Considering the tough problems singapore faces such as size, neighbours, lack of resources and mixture of population, I give the grading of the government as an A, though not an A star. -
Yeah! PM is PM over all Singapore, not just his party. Citizens are citizens of Singapore, not just party members. Singapore is greater than her parties.Originally posted by kramnave:Support Singapore, don't support political parties. -
Pls ask your teacher why the domestic debt of Singapore was 100.6%GDP for year 2006.Originally posted by stupidissmart:There is no perfect government in this world and I think the current model of governance may work better than full democracy.

Without debt, you wouldn't have a debt securities market. One of the reasons why.Originally posted by googoomuck:Pls ask your teacher why the domestic debt of Singapore was 100.6%GDP for year 2006. -
