How did we citizens lose our birth rights?

robertteh SG

Every citizen has certain birth rights like the right to elect the government from the best individuals of passion and talents and leadership but down here this is not possible because such right has been taken away or eroded by a government which has slowly over time used all kinds of fear tactics to make citizens believe otherwise.

The kind of government we have today has no longer the visions to serve the people the kind of visions it once shouted during merdeka.

Why? Because the people themselves are too naive to have accepted or falsehood of propaganda without exercising their birth right to question the good and bad of government but just blandly reelected them believing in falsehood and propaganda. May be it is selfishness on the part of people themselves. So the lessen to be learned is we should not be selfish for our own smaller benefits and goodies and stand up to start asking for citizens' rights to check and elect good government with visions.

Under such unfortunate circumstances as seen in our case we have today elected a government which has become bolder and bolder and will pass all sorts of laws to increase their powers and ignore the people's needs.

The frequent falsehoods paraded to us the citizens through the government's yes-men ministers and controlled media include "all men are equal and no one will be left behind", "affordable housing", "rule of law", "racial harmony", "freedom of press is lawlessness", "yes-men are million-dollar talents" "foreign talents create jobs" "small and resourceless island", "meritocracy equal opportunity", "no free lunch".

While all the above-stated propaganda look good they are seldom implemented for citizens' benefits. They are implemented to increase the power of a few elites and yes-men who continue to deceive all with falsehood and excuses to increase their own personal power at the expense of ordinary citizens.

So a few self-interested yes-men in power are using whips to control all the MPs who could hardly do anything for citizens or allow citizens to exercise their right to ensure good corporate governance. Every major problem affecting citizens are easily denied legalistically by denials using such propaganda. The few self-interested yes-men have circumvented and eliminated all of such citizens' rights.

Without exercising citizens' exercise or ability to exercise such right through the public media or holding of protests to express their needs collectively such self-interested power that be will continue to use falsehood to govern and we will continue to elect and be governed by rogue government

allow me...

LTK is important jigsaw piece in the pore.

but based on his recent performance, which is needful but not completely satisfactory,

i think there is a black hole for better than LTK type.

having said the above, clowns should not interprete me as WP supporter. I will not say so.

For all they know, i can , in this way, be encouraging the incums to be on their toes and serve better.

clowns will never know.
