Our whole society has been brainwashed into steotyping certain
behavior and conduct as inherently bad to be exterminated with the
full force of public condemnation.
Once started there will be no end to the same steotyped campaign
which will last for more years.
Littering has been the subject of public condemnation with the
fullest participation by the media. MPs will follow suit with a lot
of talks as if they do not know of other preoocupations like
lowering cost of living or creating jobs.
These kinds of social engineering projects take away people's
attention to real issues. Despite many years of campaigns, MPs have
failed to prevent littering and cluttering up of the HDB estates
which 20 years later after all the campaigns have become
worse.
After some world's class public toilet campaigns, what do we see of
the public toilets.
After many years of anti-mosquito campaigns, we now suddently have
dengue epidemic to the surprise of many citizens. It seems like the
outbreak is one of the worse.
So regularly campaign will continue to be conducted by MPs and
grasswroots who got nothing to do except the condemn certain
acts.
Smoking is one such steotyped public condemnation. Too bad if one
is a smoker. One year after another tobacco tax will continue to be
increased.
If only MPs and ministers can spend half the campaign time on real
issues like the lowering the costs of doing business and increasing
the chances of survival of our domestic economic sector, by now we
would have more jobs and less unemployments.
