I don't want keep hearing that flats are "affordable" when I really
cannot afford flats.
I don't want to see foreigners flood our condos, HDB estates, MRT
trains, buses, schools, EVERYWHERE
I don't want to know about how ministers are getting lots of landed and
prime property both local and overseas when I have trouble getting a
3-room flat.
I don't want ministers who get multi-million dollar salaries when I do
odd jobs and some months I don't make more than $2,000.
Ministers in other countries may take bribes and embezzle. My ministers are
smarter, they get more money claiming more MILLIONS in salary LEGALLY.
I don't want to pay ERP just because foreigners' cars are clogging my
roads. Especially, when ERP do not solve congestion problems!!! We still have
terrible traffic jams!
I don't want to do NS and reservist to protect my country against
foreign invaders when:
(A) I don't have a house to protect
(B) I cannot afford to start a family to protect
(C) I have to protect foreigners and their property with my life when they run away during war.
(D) Foreigner PRs do not have to serve
(E) I get paid worse than a Bangala worker. To think that National Service needed people donation's in 1967, after a year, it gathered S$ 3 million from
Singaporeans when we were all so poor.
I do not want to see PRs and New citizens flashing their blue and pink
ICs on their national days.
I do not want to see the shamelessness of importing foreign athletes
and claims that Singapore won when a foreigner won.. Oh yes, we pay these foreigners millions of dollars so that Singapore can claim that it won. WOW!
I do not want to hear jeering against the SG local soccer teams from
foreigner spectators when we play against other countries IN OUR OWN COUNTRY!
I don't want to pay 7% more for everything I buy in my whole life when
the government gives me $200 in "compensation" handouts!
I want to see a local student being the top student. Not some China
kid. Not hearing from ours kids that there is no point to work hard as some foreigner is going to squeeze them down inevitably..
When there is public curiosity, I expect my government (especially Law
minister) to be transparent enough let us know about Temasek and HDB cost to build a flat, etc.
I don't want LHL's son to be the next succeeding prime minister.
I don't like how China suckered us in the Suzhou park initiative and
we still have to kiss their assess.
I cannot understand why local siblings cannot buy flats when foreigner
PR siblings can buy flats.
Singles are not allowed to buy flats before 35? Are singles supposed to
be forced into marriage just because of this? By the time singles reach 35, the flat prices will be higher by $100,000 to $300,000.
These singles worked very hard to scrimp and save only to see savings
ERODED away by inflation!
I do not want to read the paper when it is pro-PAP and there is major
censorship and selective publishing and late publishing for what cannot be
hidden.
I don't like it when my country's reserves lost tens of billions of
dollars and the PM's wife can still head Temasek!
I want important national assets key to our security like power
stations to BELONG to our country, not sold to foreigners.
I want a president who actually DOES more. Not one which who I see
shakes hands, seldom speaks, does not even pardon and spare a 19-year-old kid his life. Not a president who kids confuse with Mas Selamat (Many kids who know Mas Selamat do not EVEN know Nathan)
I want job security. A contract for 1 or 2 years, Then look for work
again. The cycle repeats. We have to worry for our jobs and livelihoods
on a daily basis. When we are over 40 years old, who want us anymore? I
might as well join the army as sign on. But wait, that is contract TOO!
I don't want the next generation to suffer like me in university.. I
had to work part-time to support my uni fees in NUS, while foreign
students get free uni education thanks to MOE PLUS $500 allowance every month.
After that, NUS still has the cheek to call me up and ask me to donate to NUS.
Why they need money? They lost hundreds of millions of endowment in the
financial crisis. I can still remember working and saving for 3 months
before I could afford a 2nd hand laptop.
I want an opposition party in power. Any opposition is welcome. As
educated and smart as my current and soon-to-be-ex ministers may be, I
want people who CARE and LISTEN. Even if it is a guy who had graduated from
kindergarten would be welcomed if he cares.
