It's true. Taxes that we pay in Singapore are used pretty
wisely. Infrastructure is always being maintained well and
upgraded, public services is so much better compared to many other
countries in the world.
Sometimes, when I walk home in the dark after an evening shift, I
wonder - very dimly-lit side streets, uneven and cracked sidewalks,
police who may not respond in a timely manner and who are probably
so used to crime they might not really respond in an assuring
manner to me, druggies and drunks who cross my path ever so often,
sometimes with nary a soul in sight . . . WHERE do the taxes go to?
Are they really being used well?
At least in Singapore, I can walk home after an evening shift
feeling safe and all streets, including side streets and deserted
roads, are extremely well-lit.
Pay your Singapore taxes happily, people!
