What is the chief purpose of holding countdown party for new citizens and PRs ?

[Tiu Kwang Yew]

Are PAP people getting out of hand becos of winning votes ?

So you hold party for the aliens , are you telling them that they are farmed to be PAP supporters?
Are you not going so extreme to win votes ?
These aliens are economic refugees, they give up their own countries but they continue to live their homeland cultures in their host country sinkapore, speak their languages and dialects !!

Native sinkaporeans are also looking forward for countdown party at their estates, why not cater for them ! They give up dialects for sinkapore !

By holding countdown party for new citizens and PRs, PAP is dividing the sinkaporeans into groups and nationalities, so you call this integration ???
You make them aware of their nationalities and their culture!
In fact, this is a very dangerous move becos you have created a riot-prone society in the future for the younger generation !

What about when in Rome, we speak singlish ?

We can understand Most PAP MPs cannot debate policies becos they are not decision makers, so you have to hold party, tell history, brisk walk, sweep floor, plant trees , etc.
You PAP may win elections by holding parties, activities, festivals ,etc without having to talk about policies , but you are not nurturing good citizens, you are only winning good- weather supporters.

You really want to have local sinkaporeans, Thai- sinkaporeans, Vietnam-sinkaporeans, mynmar-sinkaporeans, Cambodian –sinkaporeans, Malaysian-sinkaporeans in the island ? tragic right !
Please don’t destroy sinkapore becos you have to stay in power to protect yourselves.
It is not too late to repent !

Oppo parties must talk about it next GE !

To divert attention??

This is a sure win of confidence n votes from the new citizens! Who else will vote for them bside most of the govt servants, the local richie-Richs n majority of the new citizens? Sad to say, there are many supporters on their payroll!!! WTF!

Don't forget the pap are a "foreigner friendly" establishment. They LOVE foreigners, welcome them with open arms, nurture them affectionately, making sure they stay as long as possible, and aiming to make them citizens.

 

[besotted]

Foreigners are human, too. Why is there so much xenophobia among educated people, sigh....

that's because sg only has 3 million+ people and the best are in government positions or working as lawyers/doctors. if you don't like foreigners, the manufacturing/service industries will plummet. do you have a choice?

[QUOTE=Tiu Kwang Yew:

Are you cocksure that PAP is holding "countdown party of Ft, PR and new citizens?"

This cannot happen and must not happen. I can in a way agree holding some sort of "water festival" for those Thai whores bec. it is unique for them and they work very HARD in Geylang.

But New Year countdown is an "universal event" WTF is PAP doing in organizing spefically for this group.

What about the true-blue Singaporeans and men who have served N.S. Shit, this is the type of Singapore I have helped to built and protect? What a waste of my time and effort. Lucky I immigrated.

All the true-blue Singaporeans might as well sleep at home.

And why don't the PAP govt. stop the from watching their dialect shows and songs like true-blue Singaporeans got to stop speaking our Chinese dialect (your) mother tongue?

 

[no_faith]

the purpose is to welcome them, so sg ppl better stay at home.

 

[wahlaneh]

wahlaneh...
to kowtow to them n make them feel at home mah.

Most of the heartlanders are finished anyway .
With the spike in FTs in every pecking order

heartlanders cannot land a job .

Then these people should choose from:
1) Accept jobs as toilet cleaners, canteen assistants, storemen
2) Brush up their skills by going for professional programs.
3) Migrate to other places to avoid burdening other Sinkies

You people fail to realize or you like to live
with wool around your eyes .

Friend, greed is the spirit of capitalism.

If you don't like it, migrate to North Korea.

Don't you know this is how PAP rules? Unity through division? Integration through segregation? Why do you think every form has an option for "race"? Why do you think "mother tongue" is limited to Chinese for Chinese, Bahasa Malayu for Malays, etc? We all jolly well know through sheer common sense that integration is NOT by always emphasizing our differences. But PAP, to keep the people divided yet "united", compartmentalises everyone into a certain "mode" and keeps harping on the fact that everyone is different yet united. This is no real unity if you keep saying you're different from others, don't consider yourself part of a whole and then marvel at the fact that no one is at each other's throats. I felt most Singaporean in the 70-80s. Yeah, we are different, but no one talks about it, and just focus on being friends. Isn't that the REAL way? But having a united people is a big no-no for the PAP of course. There used to be Singaporean culture, but for now there is no Singaporean culture. There is only state-approved mandated culture.

if you think of it as an exercise to buy vote, i think it is a brillant idea by PAP civil servants, he or she should get a 24 month extra bonus.
