Dear Arapahoe,
How's life in the US? Heard you mentioned it is a great country
to be in, having no social problems, all lovey dovey and definately
much better than our country Singapore, so stressless a life
that you are free to engage in time consuming debates around the
world. I guess you must be living a good life, since you
are the one living there.
I wish you well, and will not hold it against you, for
abandoning your country and your people, as well as our forefathers
who had given us our today. It is your right to find greener
pastures, to live a life you believed that you owe no one.
I admire your willingness to speak up, a good trait, but
unfortunately you lack any credibility for what you say or
complain, simply because you are not the one who is living the life
affected, after all being sanitised and protected in the comfort of
your aircon room in your detach house, with a continental car
bought cheaply, etc, etc in USA.
The world has changed, and affected every country differently.
We in Singapore feel it the most, being the 1st to suffer recession
due to our dependence on the world for our products and services,
having no natural resources to fall back on.
What used to be a life whereby if we put in the hours, we will
be rewarded, but now, even after putting in the hours, it may not
be enough, for competition is keener with globatilisation.
Not competition from each other, foriegn talents or foriegn
workers. BUT THE WORLD, as each nation clamour to sell their
products at the lowest price and at the highest quality.
It is not any govt's fault, not CEOs fault, but humanity's
fault. It is our insatiable desire for the latest goods that had
driven us all into a greedy consumerist world, from handphones to
stocks. Once upon a time, a colour tv and a fix line was good
enough for a family, but now, the wonders of goods and the
aquisition of it never fails to amaze me. I too am guilty of this
fault, for I, like you, am human too.
Thus, we all have to work harder and smarter. Times are really
bad, and we are not out of the financial crises yet. This is not
the time to nitpick and fight against each other. This is a time
for unity and morale confidence building.
Only the ambitious, dissatisfied will attempt to seek this
crisis opportunity to tear the social fabric - when the nation is
at its weakest point, to fulfill their selfish agenda. The enemy's
enemy may not be your friend. Politics had always been about
manipulation.
My words may seem harsh, but i speak from my heart, of facts and
realities you can easily ascertain. I only talk to you because I
feel you are different from the other rabble rousers. You have no
hidden agenda unlike them in their desire to destroy instead of
building up.
So please, do not be made use of by others for their self
serving agenda. You may have quit the country, but i do not hold it
against you as mentioned. However, you are not the one living here
to experience it for yourself, to understand the realities and life
here. Hearing from others, or being concern is comprehensible, but
nothing like living here would you be able to comprehend
better.
Criticise whomever, by all means, but it must be either backed
up by credible evidence or solutions. If not, there is no need to
be hostile, and demand others to be silenced, just like the rabble
rousers, whom cry for freedom and yet so quick to deny it to
others, a perfect example of the kind of 'democracy' that is to
come from them.
Threats, of leaving, or any kind is a double edged sword. It may
make some react and change, but more often than not, it makes
others to be defensive, and adopt all kinds of measures detrimental
to others as well.
It doesnt matter who comes or goes to our country, for as long
as there are people like me, and there are many, there will always
be a Singapore. Our forefathers had always lived within their
resources, and look towards a better future, so too can we who
remain.
Come back, stand for elections or form a team if you think you
can do better, or whatever you say, is of no sincerity at all,
sadly........
(PS: I am not from any party or affiliated in any way to them,
only just an ordinary joe Singaporean born and bred, and doubt if
any political officials would deign to even come to this site,
let alone read posts.)
Another confirmation of the plagiarising efforts of a X-rated kid
that is becoming less inhibitted towards posting a "Wall of Text"
?
"Our forefathers always lived
within their resources and can look towards a better
future" - as they did not have the PAP to rob them of
their resources, dis-possess them of their land from which they can
live even through WW-2 when the Japs were intensely watching and
starving everyone then.
Can this and future generation survive with a new set of
circumstances created by the PAP - who have changed the free-spirit
of our forefathers to make every Singaporean to become an economic
digit, to make our survival dependent on the PAP system
?
It is simply disingenius to plagiarize a "Wall of Text"
that can be so easily shredded into bits- especially when the
wall is built from ideas that you have also plagiarized from
others, which you have no ability to defend.
"Criticise whomever, by all
means, but it must be either backed up by credible evidence or
solutions" - this is an understatement from a X-rated
mind.
Where are your credible evidence or solutions when you criticize
others ?
Where were you when the evidence and solutions were made
available ?
Did you choke on the evidence when these
were presented to your X-rated vision ?
"My words may seem harsh, but
i speak from my heart, of facts and realities you can easily
ascertain."
You must be hallucinating with some self-indulging thoughts of
yourself being in some supreme X-rated role in some X-rated
maso-sadistic acts to believe that your hollow words can be harsh,
and that your unsubstantiated statements are realities that only a
kid will useless hope to be ascertained by any adult..
"Only the ambitious,
dissatisfied will attempt to seek this crisis opportunity to tear
the social fabric - when the nation is at its weakest point, to
fulfill their selfish agenda.... Politics had always been about
manipulation. "
The X-rated Kid must be commended for its ability to contradict
its own position.
If it can admire the "willingness to speak up" which it
believes to be "a good
trait" - why has the X-rated Kid not done so with the
above statement, but had prefer to make innuendoes that confirm
it "lack any credibility for
what you say or complain" ?
If politics is about manipulation, the X-rated kid has shown its
poor performance in attempting to manipulate the debate towards
acheiving its dubious goals - simply due to the often said fact
that it can plagiarize with such skills, but simply flop with the
poor skill at delivering the easily copied message.
"It is not any govt's
fault, not CEOs fault, but humanity's fault"
Is this suppose to be the X-rated genius excuse to blame
our economic woes on the fault of "humanity" ?
Who does the X-rated kid believe will form the "humanity" that
is at fault - if it is not the fault of the government nor the CEO
?
Should the common folks bear total responsibility for the
economic faults that exist, when the million dollar paid
politicians and CEOs are absolved ?
This again reflects the bankrupt mind of a X-rated kid that is
too keen to plagiarized the prosaic styles without the substance to
solidify its position.
