Same, same with Alibaba. I had to really look around to finally by-pass their auto help. When I did get through to a life person I was disconnected a few times. I persisted & finally communicated to someone who said he would do something about my problem. This turned out to be a lie...

I've come to realise that everything in Spore has become a commodity. If you can afford the cost then you have the choice. It is the PAP who has decided on this. The PAP has also forced Spreans to do NS, which school system to attend, contribute to CPF, ... etc If your family decides to...

I've decided to avoid using Lazada\Alibaba\taoba which is the same company. There are I think safer & better options like Amazon, eBay, Q0010,... I've had bad experience with Alibaba. When I tried to make a purchase from one of their merchants, the order was cancelled because I tried to use a...

As a Sporeans we are taught very little about the outside world. As a Sporean it is more important that we know that LKY made Spore from a back water place to a 1st world country:biggrin: I've toured the west of the US, visited Oregon, California, Nevada ... but have to admit to being...

Here is how multiculturalism is defined in the dictionary that I googled: multiculturalism /ˌmʌltɪˈkʌltʃ(ə)r(ə)lɪz(ə)m/ noun the presence of, or support for the presence of, several distinct cultural or ethnic groups within a society. I'm using the label that is used to describe the situation...

You might think my view is rosy but this is what exists today. If you visit the countries of Europe & Britain, you will find many non-white faces. I'm talking about the existence of multiculturalism & not commenting on whether friction exists between the different cultures. You will always...

Education should also give one an opportunity to meet others from different backgrounds. Nowadays there are so many international schools in Spore but segregation exists to prevent locals from attending these schools. You also have our branded schools opening independent schools. In the...

Look at Spore. Isn't this a country with multiculturalism? Other examples exist: Malaysia, Australia, Hong Kong, Canada, US, .. etc. Take a look at the gov't of Canada. You will find Sikhs, Indians, .... in the government. The problem is when there is a perception of being treated unfairly...

In my opinion Canada is a better place to live than the US. They have a great healthcare system. People's attitude on education, life, ...etc is also much better. They believe in multiculturalism. The system works there because of education. All Canadians have access to education. You...

I am from the old school who still believes a good education is required to be successful in life. It has opened many doors for me. Unfortunately one cannot get a good education in Spore. By good I mean a well balanced education without the PAP propaganda that is so common. Our school are...

These refugees are being accused of being criminals, terrorists, having dangerous illnesses, .. etc. That is why there is a process to check the status of these people who want to enter the US legally.. Trump is targeting ALL these refugees & not giving them a chance to go through the asylum...

I'm not a moralist:smile:. What he does in his own time is his business. Many in the US think as I do, however Trump lied & tried to cover up using campaign funds to do so. As a matter of fact the Trumps have been accused of setting up a charity fund & misusing it for their personal use

You are a victim of the Trump distortion field. While there were some cases of imprisoning children, it was not carried as extensively. The children who were imprisoned were soon released WITH their care givers...

Can think of some: Taking kids from asylum seekers with the intention of NOT returning them to their parents. Keeping the children in cages & tent cities. Using divisive language & scare mongering which pits different groups among US society e.g. encourage the guy who sent out mail bombs...

Trump is an example of how total power corrupts. Not only did the republicans hold the 2 house & senate, but they did not reign in Trumps excesses. I don't know how Trump finds time to do presidential stuff. He is often twitting, playing golf at one of his properties, watching TV, spreading...

The results are still coming in but confirmed that the democrats will control the house while the republicans will control the senate. Trump will have to eat with Nancy Pelosi if he wants to pass any bills.

Watching the US elections & although its not yet over, the democrats have taken control of the house. Now that they have the "power" to do investigations, Trump is going to be in a lot of hurt. He'll probably have less time for golf holidays, less time to tweet, less time for watching TV...

You can blame your parents for letting the famiLee become so powerful & corrupted. It wasn't always so bad but over the years LKY made Spore into a family business.

Did these people reach the unofficial retirement age of 40? I wonder how many are Sporeans who supported the PAP i.e the 70%? The PAP needs the vacancy for the incoming hordes of Indian nationals,=. Now maybe the retrenched have had their rude awakening & angry enough to join the 30%

Potong Pasir is my old constituency & when the residents voted out the PAP, the PAP took revenge. They closed the community centre which I thought is suppose to be an independent body from the PAP. It was a petty & spiteful act. Not a big deal as nowadays people are busy with work &...
