Hate is such a strong word.
I don't hate our government.
I just abhor PAP. ![]()
Oppositions are Capable..
But the bloody PAP don't give them a single chance to SHOW their ABILITY.
If Opposition wanna show their ability,
they will kena Sue..
Everything sue and sue and sue..
And reason? to maintain their REPUTATION?
But what about CSJ Reputation?
What about JBJ reputation?
So how?
not fair right?

No ruling party will give opponents a chance. Opposition needs to fight for it.
If Opposition is unable to, it simply means they unable to.
There is seriously not much they can do.

and some ppl which are poor nd oway go ask mp write letter for approve if it a goverment de bill or what and u ask opposition write. u think the success rate will be hw mux? of cos v low right..

meanwhile we have heard YOUR Electricity bills will hike by 22 %.
meanwhile Transport operators have already hiked fares.
Guess what reason they used?
that said, I still think we should all keep absolutely quiet as 1st world citizens of the educated kind. Why I say this? Since I watched BlogTV last night, somehow my mind has changed.....accept....HIKEs....part of ....life......
Best entertainers in BlogTV includes: that CEO , FD, and our very handsome Metro-Sexual dude.
Singaporeans should not utter a word about hikes now and in the future, whatever has been lined up. You think no more right?
I call for the bombastic leaders salaries to be hikes by 22 % as well during year end in addition to their bombastic bonuses.
I call for all to avoid protesting. We should remain status quo - no protest till eternity. Must slog to support the rich get richer and let the poor get poorer if they want to. You break your rice bowl, that is YOUR problem.
Listen to the MSM news everyday .
Read the MSM news everyday. Buy it at 80cents, no 90cents, a pop.
Watch the MSM news by Melissa and Melvin everyday.
Repeat what is said during your sleep.
When you wake up, I think you may or may not feel good.
I am lucky, I feel good every morning.
I think incompetent sporeans should gentlemanly give their jobs to foreigners.
I think sporeans should embrace our new immigrants and FTs and their family tree that comes along.
I think sporeans should not question about TRANSPARENCY or lack of it.
I think sporeans should continue to throw money into the stock market else who is gonna earn from stocks or how to save rich people stuck money in stocks?
I think sporeans should spend and spend, Pay And Pay, work and work and trust our leaders.
I think Protest is wrong.
I think voicing up for others is not required as we are pragmatic people - Where got time? People lose their rice bowl, that is THEIR problem.
I think people especially the young should stop thinking of Opposition. Erase this word from your dictionary.
I hope the people can consider skipping the election as in let the ruling continue for eternity but we remain on paper as democracy and have election once every few blue moons. Reason : save tax payer money.
I hope Activists can replace some if not all of the needs for Opposition who , ask yourselves, have done what ..... ?
I no no.
How to migrate har? erm....i mean I like to understand the process. My fren ask me.
;)
wow Haha nice one but still alot more? ![]()

The Majority did voted once! It was heard that Certain important GRC was Supposingly lost to opposition. Something happened that day, that was wat JBJ and tang hong liang was sued for and later Tang ran fearing his future. I cant remember which artical was it but its in google and youtude too.

USA? Britain? Japan? it is only countries that have dishonorable idiots running, Myannmar, China, North Korea, that kills off opposition and then enrich themselves with public money, and put their cronies, relatives in power.
If you cannot do anything about it, you can still curse the despots, their relatives, their families, their grandchildren and descendants, and lets see whether or not they get cancer and die a lingering suffering death so as to reflect on their own dishonorable greedy for public money behavior.
...and if you support dishonorable greedy for public money despots, be careful for your own family, relatives, grandchildren and descendants....

I don't know about the slapping incident leh. Can share?
Sg government is the best.
With their milion dollar annual salaries, they have led Singapore to first place.
First asian country to hit a technical recession. ![]()

That hits the nail. They sell so much propaganda about how they are the best and they deserve the massive amounts of public money they take, their relatives, sons, daughter-in-laws are the best and having an opposition is bad, that is what they tell you in their propaganda....
So how come Singapore is number one Asian nation in a recession? So how come Temasek and GIC is apparently losing one hundred billion dollars? So how come the Singapore dollar cannot rise?
.... when the despots attack Dr Chee Soon Juan, do not turn a blind eye to the victimization, do not say, let them attack "them" as long as they do not come after "me". When they attack Dr Chee Soon Juan, they are attacking every Singaporean.

You are wrong. We might curse them for losing all that money bailing foreign banks, but actually we love them.
We might not agree with them that they should raise electricity bill by 21% at a time of recession and curse their descendants but we understand why they must do it.
We might curse them to have have a difficult and suffering death, unlike JBJ that died quickly and peacefully, but actually we are their friends.
We might curse their children and grandchildren for persecuting dissidents and oppositions and generally persecuting people that criticize them, but in reality we understand perfectly, like you, why they must act so dishonorably to cling on to power.
Yup! You are wrong to say we hate them, just because we curse them to the third generation does not mean that we hate them, just because we hope that they get their retribution in the form of cancer, does not mean that we despise them, we love you PAP!
(This post is an example of the kind of logic that says "Increase in GST is to help the poor; foreigners flooding the country to lower your wages is for your own good; allowing prostitutes to go online and extend their one month stay automatically is the moral thing to do.")
There is no need to enlighten you, in spite of our curses, we are on the same side as you.
Who?? oh the government is it?? sure i hate them, looks at what they did to my Uncles here..govt make them crazy and in the end i hv to take care of them...Uncle, medication time!!

With all due respects to you, for your posting efforts, we just need to QUESTION
the REALity of Opposition, in more ways than 1 , more than meets the eyes.
To understand more about this reality, I have attended in some Hong Lim activities.
I look at the forums.
I looked at the passing of pillars.
Its clear who is going next....to...never never land.
I looked at the kind of response from Opposition.
Its clear.
and cursing people will not win you votes.
Hope no one is giving people a bad impression of people who are against....
Chi 's storys have been effective and right timing (coincidence lah ;) )
Its now clear.
The most unique democratic situation in the world.

You said, "and cursing people will not win you votes."
hahahahahahahahaha... and who says I am trying to win votes? I have totally no respect for most Silliporeans (and you think I want to win their votes?!); they deserve everything that is coming to them for turning a blind eye when the cursed damned old despot greedy for public money practising cronyism and nepotism attacked the blessed people like JBJ and Dr Chee Soon Juan.
I dont know, is there a story reverse of "The Good Samaritan" in the bible where people support evil doers and what happened to them?

google this "PM lee slapped Dhanabalan".
hmm... can't seem to understand why peops are still willing to vote for them during elections, despite of what they have done all these years... Maybe singaporeans are just so rich to let them suck money...
Am not really that anti PAP, but i feel that there shld more oppositions in the parliament. Or else it seems like quite autocratic...

Me too goldfish.
Actually, I have given up. Before, I was hopeful like you. not anymore.
I think , at the earliest, in 50 years time (so far i find the existing reasons not complete), someone reputable and highly regarded or respected would have come up a Thesis explaining clearly beyond any doubt the Reasons why the Majority singaporeans are like this :
1. Any hike, they accept, tho some may kpkb in kopi shop but the real effect is they never vote them out.
2. Sporeans don't voice up for others affected by hikes, especially those not affected by the hikes as they are more educated and paid better such that these hikes are petty hikes to them. In fact, for the well-off, the higher the ERP, the better in the sense that being able to continue owning a car, an expensive car and using the roads full of many more ERPs can be a good ego booster. According to Maslow's hierarchy of needs, people would strive to satisfy their Self Esteem before they reach the Self-Actualisation level.
3. The special and truely one-of-kind opposition. They basically inch forward at best. I do not see them progressing in huge leaps. with the rise of Activist groups and new opposition parties, it is likely that votes for opposition will not be split thinly and more may not find a strong need to vote for opposition due to the good job done by activists. see where am i driving at?
I learnt that Politics is really more complex than meets the eyes. Power + Influence + Wealth + ... = extremely powerful force.
So, I only have 1 thing to look forward to : a thesis to fully explain the singaporeans mentality clearly. this could earliest come in 50 years time.
I can better understand why some resign from the inc.
dun flame me, just what i truely feel.
Ordinary people like myself only have capacity to care about my immediate family. Don't be too hard on us.
but it is true that if the opposition are strong/'worthy' enough, they would not be able to be sued in the first place.
what is law? who enacted the law? whose majority in the parliament. as long as laws that discrimnate the growth of opposition does not abolish, you will never be able to enjoy the benefits of a full democratic society.
ask any foreigner except india indians, mainland chinese , pinos, vietnamese wat they think about singapore? they will say,it is clean, beautiful, good shopping. ask whether they like to migrate singapore, the all laugh at you and walk off. the thought of living under a autocratic rule just turn ppl off!
