1) What makes you say that my thought on the opposition is no good? 2) We can start by you giving us your choice.

I missed this out

They are socialistic, thats why they ended up with low wages and high unemployment today.

That is why I didn't use them as comparison... Duh...

Rock^Star SG

Then let me be banned. Trolls they may be, still, they must be put in their place.

there are rental flats actually for the poor which are heavily subsidized but i heard that the gross income must fall below $700 in order for the approval to be granted, a room costs $70 per month.....

Is that what your referring to Question

Ah, you read JK Rowling as well. Is the PAP regime looking like it's being controlled by Death Eaters?

eagle SG

Some fire escapes do provide a nice play to sleep too... I saw one person doing that before. Made it into quite a nice and cosy place... First floor behind the staircase... There's some ventilation there too.

eagle SG

I thought the Ministry of Magic are the cover up experts...?

de_middle SG

Rock^Star SG

Nonono.....never a fan of Harry Potter. I do get your drift though Wink

Yeah, and being a cover-up expert gets you nowhere and earns you widespread disapproval. Time for the government to realise that. Rolling Eyes

The only thing 1st World Countires could possibly learn from us, is how we 'COVE UP' the fact that we too have HOMELESS & BEGGARS.... by choice or not by choice doesn't matters.

This is not about who is WINNING or LOSING...... it is also not about since the 1st World Countires have HOMELESS & BEGGARS.... it is OK for us to have them too.

Honestly to you think it is possible for any country in this world to not have beggars and homeless?

Reason for asking is because some people beg is not because they cant find a job or physically disable, but the just prefer to make money that way. While there are also those who are mentally unsound or people who ruin they own life because of drugs, gambling, broken family etc. While some might not be even Singaporeans.

It might be better for the society to get a better unstanding of the profile of these people before suggesting that our government is not doing enough.

de_middle SG

prefer to make money that way Laughing

sorry, i'm trying my best to be serious

eagle SG

It's true that some are not even Singaporeans. I do believe that in other countries, the homeless may also not be their countrymen. But you do have a point here.

Problem is, it's never easy to get everyone who needs help to accept help, or to even find out who needs the help...

de_middle SG

wonder how much further the percentages will slide again, anyway as long as its above 50%, its still landslide victory Laughing
