As the world economy continues to crash and burn, so does the casino fantasy and the local bank/housing industry...

Its now probably so clear that the recent boom in recent years were made of frail poker cards, and not of brick and concrete. And when the crash came, the bets were all off- literally.

The gamble failed. People must realise that the PAP is not the better of two evils in the next election; they can't vote on that stance anymore. If the government is to be held accountable and face competition in Parliament, then more opposition members must be elected. No matter whom from which party- we have to start from somewhere.

I already lose faith in my fellow singaporeans. They will not excerise their vote for a better future. All they concern abt was their value of the "leased" housing. What the use of complain about gove policies when they are the ones who vote MIW into power.

I share your sentiments.
Whenever I think about doing something for our society, I think about who I'm going to do this for and I change my mind.
These greedy, cowardly, self serving people are not worth our time and effort.

They vote out of fear of the old fart, and they vote out of the fact that the opposition hasn't been able to offer a strong alternative, or give out a strong voice whenever the opposition can.

The slow hesitant approach by the current opposition MPs have not foster enough confidence in their abilities as well and that doesn't help.

But if we just dwell on the negativity, and think we can never ever win, then we are doomed with another 50 years of the PAP regime, under LHL's son and grandson. Is that what you want for your own children and grandchildren? I think not. That's why we must keep on fighting even if we have very bad days in occasions when we don't want them.

Those oppostion parties now are being potrait as useless by local media but they are all we had. It not being easy as a opposition MP as MIW will put many roadblocks to prevent the TC from providing a good service to the residents. I had voted twice for Mr Low, i think he is doing a great job at hougang despite a lack of resources.

I will continue to vote for him as long he rerun for MP of hougang. I had give a chance to the opposition but the rest of the population did not. So since they had make a choice that cause them all this problems, then i say SERVED THEM RIGHT.:cool:

No one said Singaporeans cannot vote the opposition. But you must be careful who you choose.

I want to laugh out loud if sinkies casino collapse even before opening.

what an affair.

<style></style><style></style>Casino in Sinkiland will NOT fail for lack of money.Sinkie has the 3 rd largest soverign fund in the world to lend.Leegime is global Ah Long.

Leegime needed Sands for lack of expertise and managing to run a casino in Sinkieland.

Soon ,if Sands does run out of liqidity; which I bet is the reality given the current circumtances.Leegime will find a way to pump a couple of billions$$ to keep Sands afloat in Sinkieland.

Remember,Leegime will be lending YOUR money to Sands NOT theirs.

I will take a Hokkien-speaking AP candidate over a PAP english-speaking one, simply because I would blame the PAP one for helping Singapore crash into a recession, even faster than other Asian countries.

And this is coming from a guy who has an english-speaking background, with my only Hokkien coming out of the army variety. Which is, in extension, very unprintable.

Low is not doing a bad job. He is speaking up for the people, focusing on relevant issues and trying to make the government accountable, within the limits of his capability, knowledge and resources. Unfortunately, the only 2 comrades he has in parliament are an elderly gentleman who is recovering from an illness and has served the country and his constituency with dignity for many years, and a smart and brave lady who is not an elected member.
It is very sad and to some extent disgusting, that some people are condemning the efforts of these opposition members, when they themselves are doing nothing or little for the progress of the nation and hide behind the annonymity of the internet. Why don't these critics step forward and do something for the country and the citizens?
I believe that the only way for SG to progress is for more opposition MPs to be elected into parliament. They will be able to pose questions and debate issues without fear and with conviction, and make the ruling party more accountable and transparent and having to look after the citizens' well-being.
