actually, i don't quite understand how the economy can be
considered booming because a lot of SGreans are finder it tougher
to meet ends meet.
if i'm not wrong, in recent years, the gap between the rich and the
poor has widened, with the rich getting richer and fatter bonuses,
and the poor getting poorer as they can cope with the recent hikes
in everything from taxis to flour.
as they say, nothing lasts forever, so it'll be some time before
the current regime goes down, but i hope it's not in my lifetime,
because the process will be very messy, violent, bloody and ugly.
one good thing is that our army is a citizen army.
i was wondering if really got rebellion one day, will the SAF,
which is mainly made up of normal guys who hate NS,.....will they
use arms against civilians?
i think we'll probably have a case where non-regular soldiers VS.
regulars and regime / gahmen.
actually, i don't care if they increase their salary, the
ministers, that is.......but they seem to be pretty indifferent to
the recent crises we are having...all they ever did is to make
empty, sweet statements like "No Singaporean will go hungry".
sounds pretty assuring, eh?
ever since the Myanmar crises, i lost all faith in our
regime.
Our deputy god of foreign affairs, Georgie Yeo, made an ocean of
very professional-sounding speeches about helping Myanmar and all
that, in the end? now the whole matter has dissolved into
nothingness, nothing done, only empty speeches.
