what is our super high tech SAF doing?.....where are they...?
Society wasn't made to cater only to the 20 percent.
Absolutely right!!! The society ain't cater to the rich only but as a normal or even poor person, he or she must think for himself or herself constructively n not just sit back n complain n swear at the govt everyday withour any effect.
Many who make it in lives doesn't come from a rich background but they dun sit back n complaint. They dun see a chance in their native country, they moved on.

Why do you make it so that says that ppl CAN'T complain about the govt EVERYDAY? Must you "control" them? Do you "control" them?
I believe, that what anyone does, is their own business.. as long as it does not affect the ppl around them seriously.. or dangerously.

Why the classification of "rich", "norml" and even "poor"? Does it make THAT MUCH of a difference?
I believe everyone, not only thinks for themselves, but also for their loved ones.. it is only natural.. and those who ONLY think for THEMSELVES.. are the ones we truly need to be wary of. Not to mean that there aren't.. but imagine if EVERYONE was like that... being GREEDY and SELFISH.. a bleak world it would be.. no?
And if a person doesn't have a lot of financial backing.. whether it be in savings, or property or whatever.. in SG.. does that person truly DARE to do ANYTHING? Seriously??? A lof of ppl have seen what happens to ppl who DARE to do "something".. lawsuits upon lawsuits.. and for some, whom we do know, who are truly full of courage.. have been rendered bankrupt. And you want a person of not alot of money in savings or income, to do something?
Besides the ballot boxes.. which happens maybe once every 4-5 years.. assuming no walk-overs.. where do you suggest that person.. or persons or what.. they do?
Being in a controlled state/nation means one is easily "singled out", and can really be easily "targeted", if the "powers that be" so dexides to. Are you going to lend a helping hand to those who dare do anything?
And, finally, your assumptino that they do "nothing but complain", is baseless.. you don't.. and can't possibly monitor the movements of EVERY person below a certain income or savings level.. and watch and review their EVERY MOVES.. and you can't read their THOUGHTS.
They could be working hard.. at whatever they can, to make ends meet.. and then scrap and scrape to save.. or not at all.. YOU CAN'T KNOW THISE!! So don't go around proclaiming that YOU DO.. please.
I have seen how ppl try and do their best to make what they can.. from the worst of things.. to make a living.. and to try to make it a better life for their next generation.. but.. rising costs.. and a govt that allows more and more foreigners to enter SG, is not making things any better for these folks. What would you propose they do? Strike?? Protest???
Your end line speaks volumes.. but your context shows how little YOU actually DO.
And.. as a personal request.. pls leave ppl's parents out of your comments.. they did nothing to you.. unless they did.. then pls give us the details.. but.. and this is only from me.. going after ANYBODY'S parents.. is just like a ruffian.. if you can't find anything to debate or argue with another person.. just use fruits.. and leave out their parents.. please.

How do you know that many are not from rich background? I have not seen any data on the household income of scholarship owners. I know that Pinky's sons are scholarship holders. Likewise Tony Tan's.Many who make it in lives doesn't come from a rich background but they dun sit back n complaint. They dun see a chance in their native country, they moved on.

[/QUOTE]In sinkapore, social mobility is limited by the government policy of catering to foreigners and the elites. So, don't fool yourself into believing that the individual can determine his or her own fate. How many scholarship holders come from the working class? There is a reason why the government don't publish this information.
Don't discount the impact of people venting on this forum. I say the more the merrier. We need kindred folks to congregate here. We know that the PAP are watching this forum closely and hoping to nail a couple of us to make them an example.

Migrating is not an option for most ...no other country has such a generous immigration policy as sinkapore. Even it is hard for sinkees to migrate to India or Philippines!

You keep harping on scholars which my point is those that don't hold a MBA or Phd doesn't mean there are failures in lives. It's just that they dun sit back n complaint n do nothing. They go in search of chances n not just by blaming the govt. By putting a new govt to admin SG, you mean the current situation will change???[/QUOTEy
It is time to toss the PAP aside. They are stale and bankrupt of ideas. And they have been in power for so long that they have the entitled culture.
You are talking of exception rather than the rule.I think you got abit out of point when i mentioned many who make it in lives doesn't comes from rich background. During our school days, the group of so-called Ah Bengs in Yishun many comes from normal neighbourhood n study in a normal neighbourhood school and some dun even hold an "O" levels but they are doing well now if not successful. These ppl dun inherit millions of dollars from their dad neither do they have a Phd to allow them to be a CEO of a MNC company but yet they make it. Why??? Think for yourself...
And your experience is supposed to be representative?When talking about venturing, you dun need to neccessary migrate. I didn't gave up my SG passport even i reside in overseas for more than 10 years. I dun just quote blindly like many others NATOs in this forum. I quote with experience n the things i see.
Hitting the government in this forum is doing something. It maybe just talk to you, but every contribution makes a difference.You have to fully understand the meaning of "Talk is cheap, actions prove a thousand words"....
Of course anyone or anybody can have the ABSOLUTE RIGHT to complain daily. The point here is what does it change even if you complaint, curse n swear everyday??? PAP will be out n down tomolo just becoz of all those noises???
-rest of crap deleted-
If Sinkie Land is so good and conducive, so many offspring of the various ministers (Woody Goh, Pinky, etc) would not need to remain in overseas now. Why don't they return to Sinkie Land and serve their country since their fathers are also ministers here?
If you agree that it is ABSOLUTELY alright to complain, then write so much crap for what?
And don't put words in peoples mouth. You make a lot of baseless accusations and assumptions. To you, seems like only the poor and so-called losers like to complain.
A few years ago while buying eating curry puff at the famous tip top stall, i overheard the chitchat owner had with his friends. Nothing but complaints against the PAP and the government. Rich or poor, complaining is part of human nature. You know, people can be rich, very rich and still complain.
