PURPLE STORM for General Elections 2024

Quote:

Our population is growing because we're importing people from other countries. My view is that happy people have children. And a functioning economy allows them to do that. We don't have that. So, you need to fix the economy and fix the culture, and make it so that people who want to have kids can. You don't just go for the quick sugar fix of importing new people. ​

happy people are those pap elites with good connections to get good paying jobs like Tin Pei Ling. Meritocracy is a myth.

Singapore’s BTO public housing: homewrecker or dealmaker as some couples tie knot for flats?​

A study shows a possible link between a rise in marriages, Singapore’s public housing scheme and divorce rates
https://www.scmp.com/week-asia/life...cker-or-dealmaker-some-couples-tie-knot-flats

In Singapore, the traditional “Will you marry me?” proposal has long been replaced by the more pragmatic, though less romantic suggestion of “Do you want to apply for a flat with me?” However, high costs of rent, long wait times and attractive subsidies have pushed some to jump the gun, leading to messy break-ups and being forced to return up to tens of thousands of dollars to the Housing Development Board (HDB).

In a recent study titled “Marry for Love, or Love of House?”, three researchers delved into the relationship between marriage and divorce rates, and application for BTO flats. “One possible explanation for the increase in divorce rates is that the BTO scheme might have rushed marriage decisions, which increase the likelihood of subsequent marriages,” the study stated.

For sandwiched-Singaporeans who can only buy resales (not BTOs), it is now cheaper for them to rent than own, if you consider downpayments, furnishing maintenance and loan-interests.

I look around myself, younger women in 40s - colleagues, relatives and friends.

One third did not conceive.

Can you relate to what she said?

Stressful life here especially when you had two kids to feeds .. many men become botak by 40 plus years old. Depression is another sickness coming from job insecurity & pressure from basic cost of living.

So local men must live wisely & look after themselves very well

Marry for public housing ownership. What a joke. I don't see the fertility rate going up and yet more foreigners are given higher paying jobs and staying in condos. Sinkies are forever stuck in this vicious cycle.

Meritocracy and tripartism are scams to gaslight the low ses sinkees. 555

1. Cost of Living
Our inflation did not slow down like other countries because they were self-inflicted with high COEs and Rentals.

2. GST Hike
We increased GST when inflation was the highest in recent memory.

3. Retrenchment
Investors are no longer keen to hire in Singapore due to soaring SGD and overheads.

4. Hyflux's Fraud
Over 60,000 investors' savings wiped out overnight and MAS covering up non-disclosures by DBS (underwriter) and Hyflux's directors.

5. Corruption & Conflicts of Interests
Iswaran's issues are minor but Ridout is an outright conflict-of-interests and failure of governance.

6. Massive Property Tax Hikes
Faced with higher interest rates, industrial, commercial and investment property owners are also slapped with the steepest property tax high (adjustment in Annual Value).

7. Section 377A Repealed
Singapore hardly enforced Section 377A while in force and its repeal had encouraged more LGBT contents in our media and society despite assurances to religious groups.

8. MOE's Position in Palestine-Israel Conflicts
MOE intervened when pro-palestine messages are all over schools' physical message boards and chatgroups.

9. Housing Costs
HDB's new projects had significant quality issues and housing and renovation costs had disheartened the youth about home-ownership and raising kids.

10. Excessive Foreigners in Education and Workplace.
Over a million foreigners add to our population every decade. Look at the cut-off points for JCs now. Many students in JCs and Unis are not local-born; it is harder to qualify for the dream course, scholarship and job.

How about no more CPF-SA for those 55 years old and over?
Increase in conservancy fee?

A country that has a work till die culture and everything think of the interests of the employers and senior

This will make the common people life very miserable and that why I always emphasis that the Generation X parents' home education to their Generation Z children is very important.

The decision you make today will greatly affect the livelihood of your children.

Money is important but isn't everything in life

Singapore imports students
Singapore imports scholars
Singapore imports PMETs
Singapore imports voters.

Voter's registry just updated recently. Usually elections will be called within 3 months.

However, some speculate that it will still be in 2025 if the incumbent is not confident.

13,000 MOE students affected by software hack and some lost all their data.

The media did not disclose the full picture. IT Industry chatgroup describes it as a national crisis that is swept under the carpets:

Civil servants with IT background were sent to the affected schools, to wipe-out the whole device and remove the software. Usually when there is an software issue, we use software patches. Even crowdstrike didn't ask their users to delete the whole software or format their computers. In IT context, doing so means that we lost control of the situation.

Despite being an international company, this episode with Mobile Guardian affects only SG users.

The data of 10-20% of students' Ipad or Chromebooks lost their data. No serious hacker will be interested to wipe out student data. Moreover, schools store student data on different clouds, rightfully all clouds should have back-up. Only administrator-privilege gives you the right to destroy back-up data. It further hints that it is an inside job or a vendor/MOE error.

In summary, the hacking of software does not translate to data loss. There could be two issues happening in the same period. Did someone mess up and push the blame to Mobile Guardian?

PAP people being paid millions every year still can cock up until so terok. Very bad very bad.
