'Quitters' contributed by PAP?

NuLife SG

I also want to leave if they continue this way.

I think this is a serious issue.
They are driving many local talents away.
Most of my frens who had migrated are phds holders and real talented people.

your choices quite limited hor? everywhere 'except' sg also got racism ah. Laughing

at least u stay in sg got 'no' racism. why not stay?

but at least i'll agree with u that PAP are the ones who are causing people to be driven away, and then they tack the label of 'quitters' on them. Its a bit like, they simply cannot see how to attract people to stay and bring out their loyalty thru reasonable means. Obviously labelling people who leave quitters are an act of frustration because they cannot 'strong-arm' people into staying, not after the sort of things they do. Its a sign of a weakness and helplessness on their part and it only makes them look worse.

Thats why they introduce the Direct-to-JC programme.

At least, I will not give up without a fight.
This is my home. The nation belongs to the people, not PAP.

PAP is only making it worse, by driving talented people away
and employing foriegn talents to work for them.

sometimes u can't fight at all if u're there. how to fight when u're caged, gagged and tied up?

In sg its hard to gain any sort of influence unless you join their party. Or in rare cases like Catherine Lim, u get regarded with a degree of hostility on their part. But even influential people like her can't do much against a wall of silence on the inside.

There are loads of 'quitters' who genuinely hope things would improve enough that they might be proud to tell their children their roots and origins, and are working hard to help bring about change.

Education and Internet will in time, make people wakeup and
understand that the lack of basic democracy and freedom is
hurting our nation.

Democracy, Freedom, Creativity, Innovation and Competiveness are all interlinked.
Critical for facing challenges in the new knowledge-based economy.

PAP should know too.
Well of cos we are still in the transition phase.

After the collapse of communism more than 20 years ago, our leaders are still afraid of opinions, views, suggestions, internets because they think that there will be chaos.

How are chaos created ? Are chaos caused by receiving views, suggestions and feedbacks and attending to them?

Even in the many examples about chaos in certain countries, it is because their leaders refused to listen and want to stick to their past concepts and assumptions that finally there were chaos like in Thaksin's Thailand. Such chaos in Thailand reflect rebellion against autocracy and autocratic behaviours but the way they were quoted to citizens it was falsely presented as caused by democracy. Do our leaders tell the truths?

Sometime, we wonder whether our new highly educated MPs and minister potential can do anything to change the autocracy and let them understand such fundamentals and basics since they are the scholars with the highest degrees and job status.

Excelent point my friend. I do not believe that men that have never questioned the system, and have profited from conformity within the system can ever be a substantial enough voice of the people. The masses, for whom the the system fails to serve have no comon nerve with the schorlarly lot who cliam to know whats best for us.

Lets face it.. they have their own best interests at heart. Look If a man is truely intent on serving his country for the good of its people, he will do so nomatter the pay. Why is there a need to benchmark minesterial pay to corpotate pay scales? Is this not public service? Do we really need to retain men who would leave if corporations offered them bigger pay checks?

The elite folk that speak for today are llike farmers herding their sheep, protecting it them from the wolves only to slaughter them for personal gain.

Enough is enough. U push a people too far.... u will not like the consequences. I would say that an autocratic goverment feeds anarchy, chaos. (rebellion)

With the CHILDREN of MINISTERS happily entrenched in their lavish lifestyle and secure job OVERSEAS, who can blame the RULING PARTY for playing down the 'quitters' mentality? Mr. Green

agree.
Theres no more Communism propositions or other drastic ideals.
Somehow it give sme a feeling MMLee is still living in the 60s.
Using past methods and ideals on a 2000s century world.

What we all want is what is best for the overall economy, opportunities
and affordable living and health care and a freer society.

im glad to see im not the only one who sees this. Except that in my analogy, I use chickens instead of sheep.

The backlash has already begun.
