i've been reading your posts on page 3 and i frankly find them
insulting to singaporeans at large.
u mean singaporeans are so immature and stupid? that they need the
gov't to tell them what to think? that they need to hear lies to be
motivated?
forget about lights and tunnels. its a lame analogy.
lets talk real here: what is wrong with a few more voices in the
gov't? why must we pretend to have a make belief opposition by
having NMPs?
why can't there be more single seat wards to allow for a more
plural atmosphere in parliament?
does having more opposition MPs in parliament lead to a more
unstable enviornment? are coalition governments inherently
unstable?
what we see, is that the ruling party has become TOO entrenched in
the system. it is NOT a socially healthy state of affairs.
they have some good policies, i will not deny that... but good
policies are still good policies even if u allow it to be openly
debated...
it is only when u blatantly refuse to let others have a chance to
talk about it that raises suspicions about nepotism, elitism and
the gov't losing touch with the people.
who know... maybe in the course of openly debating it, we find a
better way, or include better safety nets so that less pple are
affected.
now, what we have is a lan lan situation. they say, u swallow. WHY
SHOULD WE LIVE LIKE THIS????
