people are not blind. what TJS said i some of his soeeches are logical true and make sense. people who need a change can ride on his words. but i am still wary about this party SDP. JBC not liked by people and seems to be takin a back seat. time will tell with future speeches at hong lim if these SDP members suddenly deviate from opposing the white paper stand and steer to political.TJS has been going for constituencies, presidential election and now white paper. what doe she really want in fact going all ove rthe palce just to have a shot at getting elected and parlimentary? its clear.
but if he continue to bring out issues that are logical and can help us balance against the white pants, he will still be of use to the people. we just bneed t watch and not give him too much to topple the balance.
we want people wo will serve the people whole hearted, not use this as a menas to get votes and later also cannot do anything better than the white pants people.
now i see teh root of our problem is over reliance on the white or one party as government. we need a coalition gahmen. when no party dominance will rule the whole country but party dominance can make changes or stop changes to policies and white papers.
no disagreement with what you said.
It is important to let those in white pants know the people are not blind, we also need to let the opportunitistic politicians know that we will not vote for them for opposition sake. Opposition must prove to us they mean business, they are organized, they are united, then they can be of use to the people, and they will get the support. The WP has done well so far, and they are careful to distance themselves from politicians like CSJ.

Think you can form opposition to form new govt. If you are on the right track and full of passion and commitment to serve the nation, I will support you.

Frustrated by foreign talent
HE turned up at Hong Lim Park yeaterday to protest against the current immigration policies.
Mr Edmund Loke (right), 38, a machine operator, was seen holding up a placard with the words "Save Singapore".
He said: "I am affected by the influx of foreigners every single day.
"When I take public transport to work in the morning, it is too crowded and everybody is just squeezing. The buses are packed."
He is also frustrated at work.
"When I get to work, my workplace has more foreign talent than Singaporeans," he said.
"Because of them, my pay is so low."
The machine operator said he earns $1,300 a month.
He then asked how foreigners could integrate when they are so many.
"The infrastructure is not there," he said.
"They (the Government) have finally admitted this, but do they listen to the public?"
Mr Loke said he did not see any improvement to his situation after 2½ years.
He also said he was afraid for the future and his job security.
He said: "More and more foreigners come in, and they are willing to accept such low pay.
"I am uncertain about how secure my job is."

The mass import of FT policy start somewhere during 2000, so if he had voted the elites since that time, it simply mean he agree with the FT policy in the past. If that is the case, please don't complain now. -

News, The New Paper, Thursday, May 2 2013, Pg 3this Mr Loke ought to be worried about his job, at 38, still a machine operator earning $1,300 !! Crane operators are offered $7000, heavy truck drivers are offered $5000, these I know for sure. The $1300 jobs are meant for foreigners, Singaporean should make use of all the upgrading program to upgrade himself to get higher pay job. What does he expect? because nobody do his job so he can demand higher pay?

serving of people begins NOW...in parliament you only talk, it is in the constituency and among the people where you serve! if you don't serve the people then your shot at parliament is but hot air. We don't need people who only appear just before election to say how much they can do for people.
This is the time, start now, don't talk so much.
