Aid to Indonesia?
-
After all the deliberate ban and delay of construction materials to Singapore,
do you think Singapore should still render aid to Indonesia...?
-
When someone's home is gone.
When people's mother dies.
When Mother's child is dead.
If politics is still in your mind. Then you can almost forget about getting help when things turn around, and happen to Singapore. -
Charity is charity. Politics is politics.
-
yea make them feel ashame of themself... help them lah. Charity works are solid works which eyes can see...
-
fuck 'em...
and i mean the politicians...
we can do without them..
they can't do without us...
so, we go on, being human, being humane.. and lending a helping hand when necessary and able...
whatever was collected in angpaos given by some relatives, and whatever i can spare, will be donated to the relief effort if any... with my physical condition, it the only way i can help...
p.s. watch for those who will rant against the indonesians.. but remember.. people are people.. -

....come on. -
I will just say too bad..
-
We will still help... no matter what.

unfortunately i'm not sure if its more useful to help them when 99.99% of the fund i donate will go to the rich and power and not help the pple in need at all, or to use the money give it to some of the poor here knowing it will be useful to them and will be used by them although they may not need it that urgentlyOriginally posted by M©+square:You're doing your humane part to help. -
we can always give them ghost_18

Not wrong to think this way.Originally posted by hisoka:unfortunately i'm not sure if its more useful to help them when 99.99% of the fund i donate will go to the rich and power and not help the pple in need at all, or to use the money give it to some of the poor here knowing it will be useful to them and will be used by them although they may not need it that urgently
Then i think the only way to know how everything exactly works is when Singapore kanna one time jialat jialat one.
Then we know how people there feels.
Cheers -
i think we will still help..
but then we will still get bullied no matter what. -
Oh yea of course. "help" them.
They need "help". -
They don't give sand to build IR. One thing.
But if because of that,
We don't do our part to help the innocent. It's another thing. -
IMHO the politicians will help.. and thats what we call "Politics"
to help or not help is up to yourself, no need someone else tells you to do it.. and by helping don't look forward to the return cause it'll almost never be equal so why bother?
and for those who keep telling ppl to help, i serious wonder what did you did the last time round -
Sand isnt only needed for IR, many other things too which affects singaporeans.
Another thing.. do they have safety features in place for their "nuclear power plant in the future?"
Wad if one fine day it happens? -
somehow, saying we should help them seems to be the politically correct answer...
but deep inside, how many of us really cares...?
how many of us actually did something to help...?
