Singaporeans Are Trapped

I think a lot of us are falling into the trap of thinking that Singaporeans are an apathetic lot with loads of complaints, and that we are not politically mature enough to bring about change to an environment that is stifling and killing them. This is furthest from the truth.

Singaporeans have been trying to bring about change – the legal way – by using their power to vote. The ever-increasing percentage of voter support for the opposition parties is testament to this. We may be moving at snail’s pace but we certainly are not doing nothing. The common refrain that accuses the Singapore citizen for being a politics-dummy must cease.

The problem why we are still so trapped in our present state of being has all to do with a corrupt regime that uses whatever means at its disposal, to entrench itself in power – the GRC scheme, the NMP and NCMP schemes, the monopoly of the MSM, the ISA, the bulldozing power to bulldoze everything into submission – are some of the more well-known ones.

So, let’s be kinder to our fellow Singaporeans and realize that many are trying to bring about change to a leadership that has gone awfully wrong and terribly bad. We have enough from this government to fight against, let’s not fight among ourselves by accusing each other for not doing enough. I believe we are doing all we can – within our capacity to do so.

Let me say a little on this statement. Legal way???? Is sinkie that law-abiding to that level. i think it is more of the balless way.

You want to bring change then start now and amass 100,000 people to demolish the parliament and demand the removal of those useless in the govt.

You are the citizen and you should fight the right for your power to accept and reject those sincere and those loser leaders on board.

You want to be politically mature, then look at and learn from Thailand on how they remove Thaksin.

LOL...that's a good one.

GCT shd have graciously stepped down after his PM tour

While walking down the street one day a 'Member of Parliament' is tragically hit by a truck and dies.

His soul arrives in heaven and is met by St. Peter at the entrance.

'Welcome to heaven,' says St. Peter. 'Before you settle in, it seems there is a problem. We seldom see a high official around these parts, you see, so we're not sure what to do with you.'

'No problem, just let me in,' says the man.

'Well, I'd like to, but I have orders from higher up. What we'll do is have you spend one day in hell and one in heaven. Then you can choose where to spend eternity.'

'Really, I've made up my mind. I want to be in heaven,' says the MP.

'I'm sorry, but we have our rules.'

And with that, St. Peter escorts him to the elevator and he goes down, down, down to hell. The doors open and he finds himself in the middle of a green golf course. In the distance is a clubhouse and standing in front of it are all his friends and other politicians who had worked with him.

Everyone is very happy and in evening dress. They run to greet him, shake his hand, and reminisce about the good times they had while getting rich at the expense of the people.

They play a friendly game of golf and then dine on lobster, caviar and champagne.

Also present is the devil, who really is a very friendly & nice guy who has a good time dancing and telling jokes. They are having such a good time that before he realizes it, it is time to go.

Everyone gives him a hearty farewell and waves while the elevator rises...

The elevator goes up, up, up and the door reopens on heaven where St. Peter is waiting for him.

'Now it's time to visit heaven.'

So, 24 hours pass with the MP joining a group of contented souls moving from cloud to cloud, playing the harp and singing. They have a good time and, before he realizes it, the 24 hours have gone by and St. Peter returns.

'Well, then, you've spent a day in hell and another in heaven. Now choose your eternity.'

The MP reflects for a minute, then he answers: 'Well, I would never have said it before, I mean heaven has been delightful, but I think I would be better off in hell.'

So St. Peter escorts him to the elevator and he goes down, down, down to hell.

Now the doors of the elevator open and he's in the middle of a barren land covered with waste and garbage.

He sees all his friends, dressed in rags, picking up the trash and putting it in black bags as more trash falls from above.

The devil comes over to him and puts his arm around his shoulder. 'I don't understand,' stammers the MP. 'Yesterday I was here and there was a golf course and clubhouse, and we ate lobster and caviar, drank champagne, and danced and had a great time. Now there's just a wasteland full of garbage and my friends look miserable.

What happened?'

The devil looks at him, smiles and says, 'Yesterday we were campaigning.. ..


Today you voted.'

Well, Singapore a seriously limiting trap by itself. Imagine less than 700sq.km of an island, what a trap! You can't drive straight through for 2 hours without needing a passport and clearing Malaysian immigration and customs. In the US, people can drive for 3 days without needing passports and getting searched for whatever prohibited or contrabands. You can choose to move from California to Nevada, or from Illinois to Iowa, or from New York to Florida, no work permit required, you're still citizen. You don't really have time to care about the influx of foreigners cause your country is so big and your countrymen are still in the vast majority. In Singapore, hardly 700sq.km and 3m locals, the concern is legitimate and should be addressed and properly managed by any government with any sense of national responsibility.
