I for one, am for the govt supporting unwed mothers and equal benefits. Why? It's an even more efficient way to boost birth rate. For a normal family, 2 parents produce one child at a replacement rate of 2:1. For a single parent it's 1:1. I'd rather have more true sinkees here than stinking...

Well i gather that he has little choice but to fence-sit. As chee soon juan has found out, sinkees aren't easily stirred over even the most important issues. So if Ho is more obvious in his criticism, it won't do anything but get him marked. It also means he can't make a real point in anything...

It's interesting that you all are disucssing Ho Kwon Ping's stance now. Sometimes it will be most unwise to bare all and denounce the regime recklessly, especially if you have so much as stake here. It's better to lie low, build up your resources, and be mildly controversial.... until the right...

The shit times has hit a new low in their coverage of this silly issue. I cannot believe they took the angle of scolding sg people and pointing the finger back at them... because THIS IS NOT THE POINT. The points are: 1. A Ms singapore should not represent the average, she should be...

Dear threadstarter, I find it almost amusing that you'd want to raise such a petty topic in an online forum. It also seems you do not know the real army. Either you're a new immigrant or a woman. If your intention is to make the SAF look bad, know that everyone has always dissed the army...

Why is it that whenever i see a gathering of YPAP they're filled with a horde of losers and retarded-looking people. I remember once LKY had a seminar at NUS, and the minder who sat beside him on stage, a student from NUS' politics club, was some fat boy with a very high-pitched guniang voice...

Just a side note, china has long ceased to be a communist country. Its economic model is staunchly capitalistic, and its political scene resembles chaotic feudal times. I've been told by friends doing business there, that there were many times the central government's direct orders were defied...

I'm surprised you have the balls to come here and engage us, if you're the real deal. While I can partly agree with you that sinkees are dumb, it is even less excusable for a foreign alien to come to a foreign land and acting all high and almighty. The natives are tired of foreigners telling...

Unfortunately he is right. Only a spastic society will let a govt screw them for more than 40 years, and still support it. But here's the caveat - every country has its share of ignorant peasants and smart city dwellers. Go to a US town and you'll see hicks and idiots too. For sg, our 'small...

It's interesting to listen to the tone of the video, targeted at whites to settle or trade there and waxing lyrical about the abundance of inferior asian labour who will slave for them. I don't believe sg will achieve the infrastructure and economic development if it tries to be like what we...

Tragedy? Why is it a tragedy? It's laughable to me. :D

Hahaha. Closed my account long ago.... This fucked up bank will not get a single cent from me.

I've been seeing many lamentations on why the PAP is immune to all the complaints and problems of the sg people. Here's something I want to share- i think it deserves a thread on its own. This was told to me by a friend, who got to speak with a high-level civil servant at an event. This...

It's called the 'quarterly sale' and 'half-yearly sale'. These are usually flats that were repossessed. There are far more bidders than number of flats available. You'd be lucky to get a good unit from there.

He's just 'training'. Waaaa this is high level qi gong man. Can take hits to lanqiao. Shaolin do this also. <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/NqymiCQgOZw&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param...

Singapore was never a match for the north koreans in many aspects. They can take children from young and house them in football concentration camps, then threaten them with death if they don't win. This can make a very good team. In other areas, their NDP mass displays makes ours look like a...

i think the ranking is correct. Ho Ching is POWERFUL. She answers to no one except LKY. The list says nothing about honest or good management.
