I am seeing more and more self praise by the govt in the media lately.

"Job credits have saved a lot of companies" even though we know how companies exploit it.

Vivian says that SG is the only place on the planet where you find food and shelter.

Khaw sang praises of his medishield revamp.

Lim Swee Say says productivity has risen.

MBT says HDB has provided all Singaporeans with affordable homes.

WKS says thanks to the SPF's tipoff, Msia caught Mas Selamat.

Can't be helped, election is coming, all despots desperately into self praising.

don't see politicians in other countries over praising themselves like the fascists in this country. Most are empty vessles making the most noise.

Fuck PAP & Lee Kuan Yew SG

It's part of political culture everywhere. Other places have media to attack the praise, but since here media is controlled by the ruling powers, everything is praise.

Fuck PAP & Lee Kuan Yew SG

Well, it's common worldwide the ruling party will praise themselves on a job "well-done" but the only difference between ours and theirs is that they have opposition parties who will tell them otherwise.

Well if the British are still in control of Singapore today for another 50 years, don't be surprised they will still be praising themselves about their grip on Singapore now.

It's because they let go of Singapore, Malaysia and India since World War 2, that's why they know their mistakes already!

Howlheje SG

Not to mention LKY said that his government is based on "talent" to choose who should be minister,not relation.

While in fact,the government body is filled with his "untalented relatives"...

Rock^Star SG

Arapahoe SG
