he’s disillusioned because he’s surrounded himself with slaves and yes man and yes woman.

I'm sad to say that most people I know of, didn't understand the logic of:

Vote against PAP, get more benefits (from PAP), even if PAP wins eventually.

Those people are not politicised people. You must explain to them the logic and politicise them.

sbst275 SG

Well, if the PAP loses the election, I believe they will not allow any benefits to be given to voters.

you bet? they can't even form e govt automatically

more likely go look for opposition parties to form govt riaos

Fantagf SG

They are not stupid. They see the entire country full of foreigners. They feel uneasy. They know something is not right. They won't support PAP, so PAP is starting a campaign to "educate" them on what sort of party to support.

It is a futile effort by PAP.

I met this Malay lady and she told me that she is sad that her teenage kids told her that they cannot stand Singapore and want to migrate. The kids are not happy with the way the govt is running the country.

For those overseas Singaporean students, majority of them just wanna find jobs and settle there and not return.

Sigh! Thanks to PAP.

HeartHunter SG

You must explain to them the logic.

Nobody pays my salary for political education... sadly.

... to think that I used to spent 5hrs to explain the concept of Money using Karl Marx's ideas in macdonalds.... and never get french fries in return...

Oppositions? Which oppositions are you referring to?

So sad to have a rubbish government such as PAP. Their control of Singapore must end.

Just use simple logic enough already. Simple words, short messages is the key to effective propaganda.

It will end but not so soon. Probably not our generation.

HeartHunter SG

Don't like to psycho people, cos I don't want them to take in oversimplified ideas.

I think simple words and short massages only make low IQ people become even lower in IQ.

ztreyier SG

It must all end for PAP in next elections.

ztreyier SG

"Singapore feels abstract to me...."

PAP turned it into land of foreigners. Everything foreign, nothing local. That is why no more feeling that you are in your own country.

That is why it must all end for PAP in next elections.

Arapahoe SG

'And if the majority chooses slower development and a lower quality of life, and is willing to accept more tensions within our society in return for changes in the political system, then so be it,' he said

Never cease to amaze me that our politician have become so low.......only " words of threats" and i don't even know if he understood what he is saying.... ?

Singapore has no political cultured and can't just introduce a cultured that required years to cultivate...

Again once you cultivate a political discussion cultured you must prepared to stand for changes....because that is what politics does...."CHANGED"

Politics is never static. That is why election is only for 4 years....

EDUCATE STUDENTS????most students only think of sex and internet......brainwashing wouldnt werk either unless they make them sit ina room fer hours everyday staring at a rotating swirl and hypnnotise everyone into zombies.

so what on earth is everyone doin wiv the students???young and virgin...look like nice to bully:)

Trx SG

I think it's a good move to educate student and people about politics and its evolution. However, it is just as important to give people the opportunities to practice it.

Last term, my husband was teaching political science at school and he had like 400 students in his class. He got the students to form and organize different sorts of political parties, promote their ideologies and bring up issues concerning them, and then got other students to vote for their parties. However, this is what happens in practice in the country where they live in, where political parties get voted into power.

I think the proposal is great if it is to educate and engage...to create a more dynamic and active society.

Miracles&Prophecies SG

The island city is under a psychopath(psychopath reveals an individual who is incapable of feeling guilt, remorse or empathy for their actions.)

The old lky is definitely one, his son lhl is probably one too or he's just a plain arrogant asshole.

This law minister is nothing but an automaton to these psychopath[s]. There's no hope of progress while these people are in charge. They may not be in where they are now based pn legitimate grounds. Election cheating issue is looming in the background and I've come to believe it thanks to Robert Ho who has the balls to tell it to the world.

Get out of the country if you can and have been pondering about it. Breathe freedom!

sbs8104h SG

that is why we have "social" studies. Forever with the policies and whatever crap

Herzog_Zwei SG

Note that you are also a psychopath too. Do not insult psychos please.

I'm absolutely not one of these lows and I do what I want. Have problem see me in court not that I have any respect for Singapore's third world judiciary system.

Miracles&Prophecies SG

And so I repeat myself again LKY and probably LHL are psychopaths!
