There is a big mis conception that SDP has no policies. What SDP
is fighting for is not bread and butter issues like those of WP's
and SDA's.
SDP is fighting for more fundamental issues like the constitution,
fair elections, the makeup of the govt bodies, etc. They are just
as important as the bread-and-butter issues. These are the issues
MM Lee deemed NO-GO zone for many years. Any oppositions who touch
these issues are gonna get really hammered by PAP and its machinery
from the govt-bias judges to the mata who called themselves "non
law enforcement" policemen. The citizen of Singapore are too
blinded by the mass "brainwashing" in our education system. Why do
you think PAP consistently instill fear among us, citing racial
issues to terrorism, using ISD as a weapon to detain any political
activities or oppositions. Look at JBJ, Francis Seow, Tang Liang
Hong for example. These are bright lawyers who dared the PAP to
debate on the national constitution, human rights and freedom in
Singapore that got themselves in PAP's cross hair.
SDP has not real agenda... just ranting for nothing.... I think
NOT!
In fact, we need all the opposition parties to work together to
bring the political field to the next level... to challenge PAP in
all front, from bread and butter issues, to foreign affairs and
relationship issues, to national constitution and justices system.
Then Singapore can progress from a 1 party authoritarian rule to a
more democratic society.
Haven't you guys ever wonder when you said the pledge it is all but
just brainwashing bullsh*t... what do we meant when we said:
"..to build a democratic society,
based on justice and equality,
so as to achieve happiness, prosperity and progress for the
nation"
What have we achieved?
Democracy - NO!
Justice - NO!
Equity - more like Elitism
Happiness? - Ask the family whose just lost a husband and father on
the track of MRT
Prosperity - Just look around at all the middle income and low
income group
Progress for the nation - 146th Freedom press, No freedom of
speech, cannot have negative comments on govt, etc. What progress
is that... The only progress is really how much richer the rich
people have become and the ever widening gaps between the haves and
donts.
