do we really need businessmen/businesswomen to run the
country?
if it's like what you said, than i don't think i would even want to
be in that country if it's being run by business people.
they only care about profits, and not the welfare of people
- look at China, during Bird Flu (chicken stain with H5N1 virus)
pandemic in the last 2 years of newspapers reports, there are
people who would go to the extent of digging out burried pigs that
might have the virus in it.
is it safe to let the country be run by those who really cares only
for profits?
or do we need people to run the country who cares for the welfare
of the nation and the people living in that country?
Looking at Singapore Today, I seriously don't like the way it's
being run, no doubt, comparing it to Singapore in the passed,
although Singapore was a 3rd world country in the 1960s, but the
govt is TRULY a People's GOVT, providing care and support for every
single citizen in Singapore.
But what do we have now in Singapore?
The leaders cares only for profits and reputation.
Singapore is going to be a HUB for nearly everything.
From Science Research Hub (Biopolics - i think i have spelt wrongly
- kindly correct me, thanks) to Clubbing Hub with Zouk leading the
way (featured in Straits Time) and the Sports Sch (+ the govt
wanting to attract talents into Singapore) as well as to make
Singapore a stop-over place for talents to train in adjusting to
Asian Climate to prepare for Beijing 2008.
Even arts, they also want to be Number 1 when the market Definately
100% isn't ready to be a really Art Nation in Singapore with the
Esplanade built some years back, but have yet to bear fruits in
making Singapore the Arts Central,although there's some small
little results, but that is considered just the stem of the plant,
we still don't have the leaves and the flower and the plant to bear
fruit for the Arts in Singapore.
Now the govt only cares about profit and frame, although they are
promoting us to be entrepeneurs but the loans and tax for SMEs are
still quite high and there's a Straight Rule for SME, we have no
flexiblity. Even if we were to use our HBD or our own home be it
Semi-D and condo to start a home based business, we also have to
pay tax (if i didn't remember wrongly), what on earth is going
on?
We are already paying for our homes, while we own the homes that we
bought it, what rights do the govt have over us when we do our own
little business if it starts from our home?
Why the hassle of all those rules?
It's our own Home, we have got rights to do anything and everything
in our own home (given that we didn't disrupt the neighbours nor
inconveince them in anyway possible)
Military Leaders like Singapore Leaders now only care to Win.
Looking at Singapore Leaders now, to a certain extent, they are
also short-shited already.
Cutting in corporate tax, they will lose up to 10million in tax,
but with the increase bunden on tax payers - of 7% GST [2%
increase] they (govt) will earn up to 16million in GST collected;
I've heard this from Radio Channel 95.8 this late morning.
Are we really being taken care of?
Are the Military leaders good Govt Leaders?
I doubt very much so.
Everything i said above are based on my own view
(subjective).
