I hear you. But the two sides have to meet in the middle.

Sometimes notions of an elitist government and an ungrateful citizenry become self-fulfilling.

There is no equilibrium, the paradigm keep on shifting, the people & the governemt never met in the middle, for the governent is too haughty & far removed to be met there. Only the threat of meeting in the middle at the cul de sac remains in their minds.

You can not please everybody, even a saint is considered a sinner to those who refuse to believe.Tthere is no humilty to those who are paid to serve, and lacks compassion when it is needed to be; there is no notion of an elitist government, it is one.

We have come a long way, from where we can look up tp people like Lim Kim San ( faults there maybe), Rajaratnam...Ho Suin Sen...even Lee Kuan Yew!

Not that we expect the government to fufil every one of our needs, but at least be humble in the approach, especially those who have to come in contact with the less fortunate, whatever their circumstances are..be compassionate & listen..

Those you mentioned above except LKY are all dead. The moral values Lee Kuan Yew once had are with them too wherever they are.

That is why we had come a very long way...recently we commemorated the 50 anniversary of HOUSING DEVELOPMENT BOARD...those who collect stamps, will remember the stamps issued back than says "HOMES FOR THE PEOPLE"...

What does it says now?..affordable!...the values have shifted...we have come a long way!!:p

That is why the PAP know that they will always have the pre-Independence folks, those above 60 in their pockets. Its the young and some of us the not so young that's depriving them of half an hour's sleep every night.:(

 

[downgrader]

True devotion and caring

 

[ahleebabasingaporethief]

True devotion and caring

And our fucking GARMENT doesnt even give a shit.

There are plenty more of such people.

Every time they go and ask for help, they are PUBLICLY SHAMED by the PORLUMPARS and SCUMS IN WHITE !

Didnt LHL said "NO ONE GETS LEFT BEHIND"? Its not about throwing money. Its about why were this people left on the fringe while so much focus is zeroed in on construction workers dormitory?

LHL is slightly dyslexic ... what he meant to say was 'no one's behind gets left' ...

just like GCT said 'more good years' ... *whispers* 'for the PAP' ...

btw, i buy New Paper for stories like these ...

 

[i_am_belle]

employees from the seniors activity centres (SAC) shd be looking out for elderly residents like these ... could have provided packed lunch so the brother would not have to go out to buy lunch ...

social workers ? all overworked ... cursing every time their boss dumps some new files (ie. new cases) on their desks for them to take on ...

free time - flip thru travel brochures at their desks hoping to get away from it all ... making a mental note that there'll be 6 long weekends this year so they can go on a relaxing trip ... typical civil servants all ...

 

[Lee Hsien Tau]

Assistance is there.....

The contention here is the role of family. If the Government steps ina ll the time and force assistance down people mouths, they will complain like the homeless who were put in homes.

CDC is bullshit.

You go to them for help, and they will tell you to see doctor and get proof.
You get proof from the doctor, and they will tell you they can't understand all the medical lingo, and ask you to get doctor to write you a MC.
You see doctor get the MC, and they will tell you doctor give you MC too long, they cannot understand........

 

[oli9]

Where the FOOK is Internet brigade? He owes everyone an explanation.

 

[streetsmart73]

CDC is bullshit. the assistance is all lies

I went to a MP meet the peeps session. I am jobless, my family divorced and remarried long ago and Im staying with my aunt.

I wanted assitance in housing, they kept their mouth shut and asked me to apply in a strange "hotel" job at $1300. BTW, I am a degree holder. They never informed me of this CDC crap. Oh, do I know that MP and CDC is different? sounds like serpent in a nest.

DID i not beg? DID i not tell my plight. DID I FUCK!

Luckily now I am better employed and moving on, but i will never forget that day when the voted person with a public mandate turn away from me.

hi there


1. bro, what i am equally interested to know what's the hit rate of the crap orgn?
2. concrete facts and figures as well as distribution.
3. now, that will somehow identify and detect its productivity and efficiency.
4. cdc, well, toothless tiger man!

 

[DrPanacea]

Humility is a triat severely lacking in most Singaporeans.

Yeah, and especially by those PAP MPs in power.
It is tiresome reading your mindset posts. You must be a scholar in an ivory tower paid lots of money with taxpayers money? You should be thabkful instead of jumping in here tp spew your false righteousness.

And what exactly is "Internet Brigade"? A PAP mole. This really pissed a lot of people off.

 

[DrPanacea]

That is why the PAP know that they will always have the pre-Independence folks, those above 60 in their pockets. Its the young and some of us the not so young that's depriving them of half an hour's sleep every night.:(

Depriving them of half an hour's sleep is not enough. For the salary they draw they should NOT deserve any sleep at all. But I know many can without conscience.

 

[DrPanacea]

If CDC keeps moving the goalpost, every needy will get disqualified.
Dmode has a genuine problem. And if the govt has a genuine desire to help, they would. But what theyre doing is filling up the workforce cracks.
You call this helping ah?

No point trying to engage in sensible debate here. This mole enjoys a high salary paid with our taxpayers money, been brainwashed and had gone deep into the dark side. He will never never see our point cos he is well rewarded to try making us see his point.
