If you are pro Singapore; then what is your take on this
issue?
Do you think such policies bring about the betterment of
Singaporean lives?
Why don't you want to see other opposition parties take over?
Is it because they have been portrayed badly in the government
controlled media?
The current state of opposition politicians is the result of the
P4P tactics. If you decide to let them persist in their atrocities,
then sad to say, there won't be good opposition politicians around
to speak up for you.
Not many abled are willing to join the opposition and risk being
sued.
In any system, a [b]BALANCE OF POWER will result in the
betterment of those under it.
In monopoly (in the past, where only 1 business exist, such as
Singapore Telecoms {now SingTel}), it was the only provider of
telecommunication services, therefore prices were extremely high,
as more competitors enter the market, prices fall, benefitting the
consumers. But then our telecoms industry is still not truly
perfect competition, because a majority of the shares are still
held by Temasek Holdings. But I guess you get the idea.

They can make policies i don't agree with but it doesn't mean
that they are rotten to the core. You hold a portfolio and you have
some losses, however you have more profitables one, generally you
have a profitable portfolio. Doesn't mean that you switch an entire
portfolio due to a couple of losses.
Don't ever blame the media or propaganda for the opposition's
shortfall, that has been a very lame and convenient excuse i have
heard many many times from many people.
