I agree Low Thia Kiang is a decent MP, in fact, he is much better than most government MPs. But Prime Minister? I want to see if he can inspire high quality people to step up and win seats first. As for coalition government, I have not seen too much synergy between the opposition party MPs in parliament or outside parliament.

Without PAP no one good enough can take over? It is this sort of shallow, stereotyped mentality that makes PAP unconcern about Singaporeans.

Don't be overcome by this LOOK GOOD environment we all live in. It was built for the country's image but never entirely for the peoples welfare.

Our Dear Leader has a vision, a vision for himself, to be the greatest statesman in history.

And WE ARE ALL PAYING THE COSTS FOR HIS IMAGE-BUILDING ambition right now!

Talk is cheap, but at least it gets us going somewhere...?

PRP SG

Not only PAP has great advantage to recruit talents to its party,the experiences of Jeya, Chee & Tang Liang Hong make ppl scare to take part in politics.

talksoftly SG

On the contrary, why dont u say that, its these people that allowed the people to see through the facade of the opposition?

I think, its very simple, dont talk so much, no happy leave. Else speak up properly, dont just talk and talk here, where no one can hear u. It like primary school students having class discussion. Especially with ur forced and unsupported views.

Come on, u can do better then that!!!

Show us!! If u can replace the govt, lets see u displace them. Else i think u already prove that, u cant replace them.

then i think u should shut up! and i think u are spending too much time in this forum. Get a life man......

A government that sells its soul to the devil and allows one major vice into its shores should not hold on to power any more. It is obvious LKY’s control over his son is waning, if not why did he make a dramatic u-turn on the casino issue (which has been mentioned in other threads)?

We have LTK and Steve Chia. Personal...*ahem*... history should not blot a person's intellectual record. I think if Singapore gives Chia the chance, he will, unlike Dr CSJ, prove to be a reformist who can being about real change in Singapore.

What we need in our next stage of development is full-scale political transformation.

the (hopeful) pikamaster.

P.S.: forget about the nude photos... tt is an ad-hominem distraction the Ruling Party is using to slander/defame/discredit Mr Steve Chia.

SBS9611D SG

Steve Chia was a rising star until the nude photo scandal. He simply blew his chances away. Sad

pikamaster SG

haha... who's the facade here? Yo, isn't SG just one big facade of democracy?

What is "speak up properly"? Write posts at YP BBS? write letters to ST or TODAY or TNP? Speak at the Speakers' Corner? all yield the same result - the govt never listens TRUELY.

Barring someone leading a military insurgency, displacing the govt is extremely difficult, given all the soft hidden power they exert on the electoral process and the press. Any good suggestions by opposition will merely be filtered out by the govt-controlled media or censored and summarized such tt the real content is not revealed to the pple.

And btw, I think this forum has the largest amt of supported views among all the local and foreign political forums I have visited.

Enough said; just rmb: Think carefully before you post any emotional stuff.

the (hopeful yet cynical) pikamaster (Isn't life just full of ironies?)

pikamaster SG

I agree on this pt... except tt it is the govt who blew his chances away, not himself. C'mon, I serously have doubts tt our ministers n MPs r as clean as they portray themselves to be...

As for the scandal: How certain is it tt his wife wasn't manipulated by the govt or not serving as a (secret) govt "agent" in any way?

We simply don't know any details except those tt our biased local media provide, and our local media are rarely, if not never, objective about local issues.

PAP govt doesn't know the definition of "culture"

The late Ong Teng Cheong said he didn't know the definition of "culture" when he was the Minister of Culture.So PAP govt doesn't know what culture means.This is another reason why the govt should resign.

Typhoon SG

Of all the absurd statements you have made in this thread, this by far comes the closest in destroying what remaing credibilty you have.

Originally posted by PRP:
The PAP's promise that constituencies which voted for PAP would get priority for estates upgrading is an offence uner the Parliamentary Elections Act.It was simply bribing the voters and the govt then fulfil the promise.Jeya said it was vote buying.Since the promise is against the law,PAP leaders concerned should have been prosecuted & punished.

Not only the tactic is corrupt,[b]it is the thinking that the govt need not discharge its duties fairly & it can favour the ruling party that is dangerous.Civil servants might also think it is alright to use thier official responsibilities to favour anyone whom they like or for other selfish reasons.

The PM who initiated the policy has already become SM.Other ministers who agree with him should also go.

The govt should go.I believe I can take over.[/b]

Don't take over... run for the presidential elections... get elected and served in the best interest of the people!

PRP SG

Sorry,president has very little power to run the country.

Okay, sorry lah... I was wrong to pass judgement at such a premature stage. Sad

I withdraw my previous statement that the last post was 'absurb'... since this one takes the cake!!! Laughing

How 'absurb?' Let me count the ways:

Let's settle the question of whether the govt should resign first before we go on to next issue.

Every mean must have an end, and if getting "the government to resign" had been your means in order to acheive an end, namely the betterment of the lives of Singaporeans, you would have my support.

However, as can be seen from the above post, the resignation of the government is the END, for you at least. Your sole objective seems to be getting the govt to resign. When others challenge you to prove that you have something better to replace it with, you flippantly dismiss these concerns, with a heck-care attitude no less.

Implying that what you want to do is to get the government to resign first, before carrying on with the next phase of action, without elaborating on what will happen in the transition period.

I don't think I need to explain the 'absurbity' of this, because even a toddler realises that you cannot take action without first thoroughly planning what the next step will be.

Unless you have a bloody good idea what the next step will be after the government resigns, you have no credibility in anyone's eye, not just mine.

Perhap u are jealous with my ability or u have monetary interest in this topic.

Of course I'm jealous friend... after all, if ignorance is bliss, you must be the happiest man on earth. Mr. Green

U are one of the few surfers who think that my opinions in this topic are absurb.If u can't find my opinions are correct,then of course i have no credibility in your eye.

No offence mate.... Very Happy but I'm not the only one who thinks that your plan to get the government to resign before thinking of what should follow next is absolute cock...

in fact, I can safely say that this group contains significantly more than those who support your half-baked scheme. I've browsed through the thread and while most here would be glad to see the current incumbent go, no one seems particularly keen on your wet dream of getting the government to resign completely.

A nation cannot function without a government, especially one like Singapore where the population have been bred into subservience and depedency by the system...

What needs to be changed is not the government, but the ruling party. Next time, get your facts straight.

PRP SG

Typhoon,
Probalby u aren't aware of the last sentence (i.e. I believe I can take over)of my first msg.

Most ppl say "change govt" instead of "change ruling party".Do u think they are all wrong?

j6sus SG

Simple fact is the PAP does not want anyone else except themselves to run the country. They are not more exceptional or capable than any average man on the street, although the controlled press tells the world otherwise. Take away the PAP kangaroo court and their abuse and use of litigation suits a lot of capable people will come out.

ctstalin SG

PAP sucks, PAP sucks, PAP sucks,
Everytime just Pay And Pay...
