shibuya SG ok. so he has been governing singapore (i had wanted to write our country. but on 2nd thought, it is HIS country rather than ours. seriously speaking, there's no sense of belonging or wadsoever.) for the past decades. he has been controlling everything and making life difficult for all of us. he has been making decisions behind the scene (much like Cixi Dowager in Qing dynasty). he even has to interfere in an internal affair between SIA and its staff. like trying to make the country dependent on him. he can't seem to let go of power. but death comes to all humans. what happens when he's gone? will the pap govt collapse? who knows, maybe 99% of policies and decisions were made by him. will msia grab the chance to undermine singapore? these are just part of consequences caused by him who is not able to let go of power. i read about the joke posted in this forum that he should have retreated in glory. i totally agree. why stay in power until people begin to hate you? why not retire in glamour and respect? if he refuses to retire, then let nature takes its own course. but are you looking forward to the day he will be gone? what is the most scary thing about him is that he will rise in his grave if singapore is in trouble. for goodness sake! the country is not his! if the govt really want people to feel a sense of belonging to singapore, then give the country back to its citizens! back to us!
laurence82 SG x2 Singapore is ours, not to some. The elected personnel are supposed to be at our beck and call, not the other way round.
Coco_Coco SG recently the govt has been really making things difficult for all of us. it's to the point of ren3 wu2 ke2 ren3 (tolerate with them until cannot tolerate anymore). how i wish the president can be given more power over issues and policies. at least can keep the govt in check and dun let them say or do wadever they want. esp what they do or say are all loads of crap and rubbish.
Coco_Coco SG agree! elections are other truely democratic countries are more competitive and give people more choice. but us?
