I am a Singaporean.I have served my NS and finished it.My
roots are here.
But the events of the past week show me that the Government,no,the
PAP,has not changed,not a bit.Only gotten more intelligent at
suppressing dissent and alternative voices.
They have made FOOLS out of our country on a world stage,they don't
even allow [b]peaceful protests or expressions of
dissatisfaction.Our countrys youth are apathetic and ignorant of
the world beyond.
They have shown themselves as authoritarian,inflexible dinosaurs
who refuse to adapt and will die,always looking to the past.The
damn riots were 40 years ago.Is there a chance now?Yes.It is
likely?No.
They suppress our civil rights, brainwash our youth and expect us
to conform to a few standard ideals.
I am sick of the apathy of my generation.I am sick of the lack if
idealism and motivation among our people.I am sick of people
complaining unnecessarily.I am sick of people taking the easy
choice instead of the right choice.I am sick that we cannot express
ourselves,that we lack self-respect as a nation.
I am sick and disgusted and tired of it and disillusioned with it.I
am tired of inaction,I am tired of the government having too much
power.I am sick of Lee Kuan Yew and the Lee political dynasty
wielding so much power.I am sick of politicians who serve their own
interests instead of the people and the country.I am sick of the
promises made by Lee Hsien Loong that have not been kept.I remember
in his 2004 National Day address,when he promised Singaporeans more
freedom,to include each and every Singaporean,regardless of
race,language or religion,in the process.
I am sick and tired of how they marginalise Malays during NS.I am
sick that they marginalise the other languages,always promoting
Mandarin.I am sick of the lack of passion in our people.I am sick
that so few of us stand up to the PAP.I am sick that we don't stand
our ground.I still remember 2004,when our current PM visited
Taiwan,and kow-towed to the mainland.
I am tired of how Lee Kuan Yew still holds the reins,refusing to
let Singapore grow,always looking to the past,always pounding on
about it.I am sick of the fact that we have a farce of an
opposition,simply because Lau Lee,the Old Man,is too damn scared of
a little criticism.He had done so much for the country,but he holds
it back now,by his continued involvment in politics.His time is
past.We can learn,but now is our time,not his.
My name is Yap Shi Wen.And I can't stand it any more.Any one can
find me on Frienster.Any one can send me a message.That is my real
name.I have had it,and I'm not tolerating it any longer.

dude. lets face it. currently, no one can rule singapore better
than the pap.
why?
because the pap hasnt allowed the opposition face of singapore to
grow.
so now we're all stuck in the choose-us-or-die-trap.
how to break free of that trap? thats the first question we must
answer before we can even talk about changing the face of
singapore.
