Same here. MRT sometimes break down. Bus service sometimes not
reliable.
Which is why, I keep saying that the reason is because the
Opposition parties provided solutions that are weak, not good in
the long-term.
The Opposition is weak, yet the PAP is not one hundred percent
perfect. But at least the PAP is strong.
Yesterday, I made around two suggestions on Education. First is
to conduct CME (Civics and Moral Education) classes in the Mother
Tongue languages, at both primary school and secondary school, to
improve our Chinese standard. Second is to change the Normal
Technical stream to take in students who fail PSLE, and let Normal
Technical students re-learn primary five and primary six content at
secondary one and secondary two. It's to give them a second chance.
If they can get at least 60% at both secondary one and secondary
two, we can let them take the GCE N Level (Normal Academic). If
their N level results meet the grade, we can let them take the GCE
O Level. For the detailed write-up, read my earlier replies (scroll
up for suggestion on NT stream).
Today, I would like to suggest on housing.
I notice when we buy house, the lease is ninety nine years. If
we reduce the lease, maybe we can set a lower price for flats.
After all, from newly-married husband and wife to ah gong ah ma
with two university graduate children, it takes around thirty
years. By around the fortieth year, the children would probably
have set up their own family.
A family only needs a house for forty years. After the forty
years, children buy their own house, while parents buy their own
house for two people world.
If we cut the lease down to forty years, maybe we can lower the
price by a fraction of fifty nine over ninety nine.
We can make this like the COE (Certificate Of Entitlement). Not
that we must buy the entitlement before we can buy house. As in,
after the forty years, if the husband and wife still wants to stay
in the same house, they "buy the house again".
Actually, a better word is "lease".
Here, I have another suggestion:
Allow the people the option to pay rents, in the form of five or
ten years. Of course, if one can afford the full sum, can one-shot
pay the rents for the full forty years. But, at least have the
option to "pay rents".
Do you have a PhD for rubbish talking?
