There you are, another dog barking!!!

Salman SG

You can call me anything you like, it doesn't matter at all.
I get to exposed your hypocrisy and enjoy every moment of it.

meleagent SG

Bro, don't feed the troll.

Salman SG

So what are you doing?
When yu can't debate, you start calling names.

cheers

meleagent SG

What am i doing? Well i am here lurking and skulking in the safe confines of cyberspace ever ready to put down propagandist slur that you type out. The Supreme Conster laments the fact that there are not enough "streetfighter" in S'pore. Well someone has to step up to the plate.

Salman SG

Why are you feeding trolls like you said?

snow leopard SG

so you've finally admitted you are the troll, aren't you? : )

Salman SG

He called me a troll and he’s feeding me, he must be contradicting himself. That doesn’t mean i am a troll or admit to be one.

Comcare reaches out to help the poor in singapore. a family was extended 257.50 per month to help them through.

can that amount help anyone?

ShutterBug SG

Yes dragg; I wonder too, can $257.50 "help"?

Take the number 257.50, and see what number of things can be done with it. Or is it just for basic food and then other domestic bills keeps piling up to the ceiling?

dragg SG

that amount is hardly enough to feed 1 person, let alone a family.

i wonder how many households are there with such problems? we regularly see reports or hear of students skipping meals, unable to pay school fees, no money for books etc.

mind you. we have hundreds of billions of national reserves. our ministers are paid over 100k a month. we have the faster growing percentage of millionaires.

something is seriously wrong!!!

ShutterBug SG

Well dragg, if our government keeps hoarding money for themselves only, WHAT CAN WE DO???

We're all frogs in this big fat well!!

We're all keeping our heads above the waterline as it is!

You see, we're all so pre-occupied trying to survive.

Unless, there someone like Superman other than that Chee Soon Juan fellow...

There's no credible opposition who can stand up to our PAP who wields the mighty sword of justice so skillfully.

If Comcare seriously thought that $257.50 is sufficient for a family to last a month. Guess it is time for the MPs or Ministers who are heading the group to speak up and propose that our our PM, SM and MM have their salary review to $25,750 monthly. Laughing

It is still 100 times more than $257.50. Twisted Evil

Hahaha....... $257.50!!! What a joke Exclamation

mistyblue SG

Ask for more?
Then you would hear the oft repeated statement by some MIW : Singapore is not and will not be a welfare state...

I guess its what the starving people want to hear ... how principled our MIW are ... Hurray!

mistyblue SG

As I said, this country is great for the rich and very hard on the poor

WHY must we always expecting the opposition party to fight for the unjust, unfair happenings created by the ruling party aka PAP who formed the government. Confused

WHY cant the PAP comrades (MPs) of our own gahmen fight for the cause of the poor. Rolling Eyes

For this moment, I like to ask the WHY my PAP MP is not fighting for the cause of the poor (in this instances of $257.50) on behalf of us as citizen of Singapore. Twisted Evil

DO my PAP MP also think it was a sufficient amount? Neutral

Maybe time will tell, since the report just came out in the news yesterday, I could be wrong. Possibly my PAP MP will speak about this subject (and his own feeling) in the next paliament sitting. Razz

dragg SG

maybe i should correct myself. 257 is a lot.

Twisted Evil

it might be discontinued after the election is over. by then they wont even have 257.

Crying or Very sad
