How typical of those who lambast this government for restriction of civil liberties, but are themselves the most intolerant of a different opinion than their own. So this forum can only accommodate those who oppose every government policy then? How dangerous if folks like you get into government Crying or Very sad

Apparently, there're sycophantic muppets out there who believe you're on course to enjoy a standard of living that would even surpass the much-touted Swiss standard of living... Cool

Ya man. I think he should've been PM instead. Crying or Very sad

F1 is a business deal, nothing more.

Any responsible businessman will sniff out the best deals to make money. Our govt is no different. The only disappointment is we decided on opening our borders now, when we passed up the opportunity years ago, because of the decision of ONE MAN.

The decision to host F1 will definitely rake in more revenue for our govt as the revenue will be pumped into GLC corporations like Temasek to make more investments and acquisitions that in turn produces returns for the overall economy; this indirect approach will be the long term benefit of F1 rather than the direct earnings from ticketing and sales.

The problem will be how to bridge the earnings to benefit the people, rather than just Singapore Inc. At this moment, that's the way the country is being run.

Hopefully, storekeepers and retailers get to benefit theorugh increased sales for the duration of the F1 and not a repeat of the IMF slump period at Marina-Suntec.

Well, if it's any consolation to you now, these things are still the decided by ONE man with input from another. Laughing

Who cares about your bias attitude, your prejudice, your sickening arrogance!!!! People here know the sort of person you are - go go on criticising everyone to boost your own weak big ego.

People here talk about facts and voice out their concerns but just one nut keeps attacking. So you are nothing but a sickening scumbag here! I only accept it when people give good reasons and state facts - I will not accept scumbag who has real serious bad attitude problem coming to act as if he has every right to humiliate people and oppose people stating facts. if you can't accept the facts here, go get lost. Some who are not of the same mind when we talk about certain things, they/we are able to keep peace while disagreeing which is so needed here. But ass for you when you disagree, you will never fail to be unkind to people. So you are as unkind as that nut lee hsien loong so most of the time you will oppose when we voice out our concerns on what he has been doing.

Go lick the butt of his! WE don't care!

With road diversions and closures, businesses in the Marina area will be adversely affected. Hopefully, they will keep the road closures to a minimum, but if there is going to be a night race it will be more complex to set up and I can expect greater disruptions.

You have just confirmed your image as a hoodlum who argues with your fist instead of your head. If you spout nonsense as you do, don't expect that to go unchallenged. Your vitroilic verbal diarrohoea is typical of all you can offer.

rane SG

I don't humiliate people like you do. Whatever above is your own perception! The fact is people here knows what sort of crap you are. So what is there for you to talk about others when we have been humiliated and treat with unkindness by you. Like what I say, a person like you with bad character your words don't carry weight. The more you speak here the more you reveal your ugly character. Mr. Green Embarassed

Ain't alot here just anti-Govt for the sake of being anti-Govt. All I did was state a fact...... and already you branded me as Pro-Govt....... Grow-up please.

so oxford mushroom has turned hloc. you should be the one to grow up, spoilt brat! so many speak negatively of u, I am not against u for supporting the gahmen, but it is the way you post your message. Go ahead and disagree but there is no need for you to humiliate others, so childish!!! Like I said before the more you speak the more you reveal your bad character. Don't think majority here are anti govt, in general they just voice their concern. Unlike you you come here to humiliate people. and so what there are a few who are anti govt, so what - are you going to arrest them?

oxford mushroom SG

haha...I don't have to do much. You humiliate yourself by your brainless posts Mr. Green

Anyway, now that the contract is signed and sealed, sit back, think of ways to tax them till they squeak and collect the money

hloc SG

btw.... I'm no Clone. And I stand by what I said. S'porean complaint Shin Corp as a 3 Billion dollars failure...... But if Shin Corp had been a success and made tons of $$$, would S'porean now praise Govt Question U and I know they won't..... don't BS me, I'm a S'porean too. Yet now Govt insist on 'Tax Payer Money' being well spend...... and what did Post 2, 3, 4 & 5 said.......

Post 2

Typical isn't it? That immediately puts a hard cap on how much the organisers can earn.

Regardless of how much effort I put in, can only take back XXX amount as profits.

Govt should just charge a Flat fee per season or per race and be done with it.

Post 3

expected la.

Post 4 - Your post......

That's the way they are and this explains why people can never stop talking about the ruling party is greedy for $$$. "buay pai seh" don't provide $$$$ for the F1 yet wanna the profit, so how are they going to convince the public that they are not greedy of $$$$. So what is the difference between them and those gangsters who demand protection money from the ordinary people?

Post 5

Govt's fund = Minister's pockets?
We seriously need balance and checks...

Need I say more...... Mr. Green

rane SG

People, hloc is anti people here who voice out negative views on gahmen. Do you need to go to this extent to show your anger, your unhappiness about Singaporeans? Don't people have the freedom to voice out their concerns and views. If you don't like it, don't even waste your time and effort coming here. We don't need faultfinders here. Embarassed Shame on you, oxford mushroom or hloc!!

rane SG

oxford mushroom, you are the one with no brain. There you go again humiliating people. You can't even get the basic things right in life what is there to come here show people you are of some kind standard when we are know you are yucks!!! You are just downright ill mannered. Anyone you come across that does not accept your bad character you snap and humiliate them. Need I say more to add on to Walsea's posts on you, Walsea and others had said lots of your craps.

Now you target me. Go on - the more you talk the more you show the bad character of yours. Laughing Embarassed what a shame!!

hloc SG

This question should have been asked of you....... do i too have NO FREEDOM to voice my concrens that S'poreans just like to complaint for the sake of complainting...... don't i too have the RIGHT to said what I feel Exclamation You insist on your RIGHT to Speak.... yet make fun of MY RIGHT to Speak what i felt..... that my friend, is called HYPOCRISY

What a 'elite' way of thinking....... people who disagree with U must go away..... Yet here U are, tell me that I should be ashame. Even I don't have a big enough HEAD to think that I'm always right. GROW UP and learn that not everyone have Ur kind of Mindset.... Unlike you, I think for myself on whats right & wrong with the Govt..... not parrot anti-govt thinking just because it is cool to do so here. Exclamation

walesa SG

If he had a brain, you should believe your paid local public healthcare actually beats the UK's free NHS and Singapore's actually on course to match, if not outperform, the Swiss economy. Laughing

speak for yourself OK, you are what you mentioned above. Ask yourself if you are here to pick up a fight, to go against people and people gotta act and talk according to your whimps and fancies.

I don't say anything like what I say of you and om to all others here. The reason why I do so is because I find that you are not here for any good motive and the reason you come here is to find fault with people. AS you can see some people here will stand firm to tell those couple of people off because they come here to find fault. If you are not finding fault I will not mention a thing about you. The main thing is whether your views here are positive or negative, just voice out but there is no need to be mean to find fault. You state your points clearly without motive of finding fault then nobody will be here to point at you. Mr. Green

rane SG

the root of the problem with this guy is his character. A person's character is like a tree, if the root of the tree is rotten or bad the fruits from the tree are bad, too.
