MP: Sgreans are too mollycoddled
-
I think the Right Honorable MP should understand that word mollycoddled bears with it a whole lot of emotional baggage especially in the present context. Many individuals are losing their jobs, seeing their incomes diminish, families struggling to make ends meet. I don't think mollycoddled is exactly the most apt term to encourage unity and fortitude during these troubled times.

Agree with you on thatChildren are paying a hell lot more these days for goods, doing all they can to survive. Old folks whom are parents, had worked hard to build up our nation, are shocked by the magnitude of the present crisis.
They worked hard in the belief that there will be better times, and are sadden that instead find their children struggling today, even though it is a global event and happening to EVERY family in the world.
They approached their MPs with only hope that the present party whom they had faith in, and trusted for so long, seeking for solutions or at least a bit of compassion. And 'mollycoodle' is what they got.
If the MP had said in in good times, everyone or most would have accepted it and self reflect on our traditional values. But hell, this aint good times. Still, he has the right to voice out, just like everyone else, though it was the wrong thing to say or couched wrongly and at the wrong time.
Fortunately he is ONLY a backbencher, only a MP, and NOT the cabinet whom make the decisions after legislative debate, along with our perm secs and civil services. I doubt they would follow or agree with what he said, or at least not the right time to say it, a vital traditional value that had been true and useful for societies to grow and saw us to our present.

It's like there is this compeitition among MPs to see who can piss the public off more.
Is there a private pool going around in Parliament?

With losses of US$100 billion (approximately SG$50,000 for each Singaporean), if they release all the CPF, it will only result in high inflation.

Nothing is really yours unless you can exercise your rights on it.

Just recently, theres a female MP reported to police on her life being threatened by a citizen who seeks her help.
Now, another MP, was not threatened, but uses another way to make us visit them less often so that they dun need to help much.
Any other tactics to stop us from seeking your help, PAP Elite MPs?

Well, some are Left honorable MP. But by contrast, the way Singaporeans are spending and eating on the street today, the word mollcoddled could have very well spoken on the context of Singaporeans spending power. -
