Keep talking abt rising price/living standard.... no solution??????

[Typhoonz]

You are damn right... But Singaporeans tends to take the safer option as we have discussed before... I didn't get to vote the last time as no one contested...

[Blue2]

er...how do we define good life?

I might need an air con but u just need a fan will do...everybodys expectation is different...

if we keep depending on someone to "provide" us with good life then that is bad..

I agreed that we need to depend on himself to be self sufficent...

of course at time we do need help, but we need to put in our best effort first b4 asking 4 help...

just my tots....

Cannot say like that. We just vote the better ones in & let them do the best possible. U can't expect too much from them cos they r being squeezed from every direction.

 

But if their party takes over, then they wil have a freer hand to do more for the pple. We must give them a chance or forever live the life we have now.

That's why they r called Sin Inc.

 

Even if not making $$$ they wil change here & change there till it makes $$$.

i guess its another 5 year of empty promises..... where are those promises before the elections.....

 

they knnbccb. say inflation is a world wide trend and wants us to make ourselves more "competitive" so that we can tahan. WTF. wat does he mean by competitive? held 3 jobs a day to make ends meet? CB!

For the next few wayang elections, the opposition can only progress inch by inch till the percentage hits 50+ per side... Then the whites will wake up and start to fulfill their promises to win back some votes...

i hope you are not one of those who complain but when in the box

 

tick for men in white

 

 

if not then you must be the 33%

 

or else just like me walk over

 

sad to say, some of use belong to the "w@lk over" cat.

I believe there are few good opposition ppl around. It is just that their view is a not helicopter view...

Y is someone so free to , so call, stand up for the right of our neighbours many km aways...

when his/her action might cause hardship to his/her family...

If got so much energy, why not do something meaningful to help improve life of fellow countrymen.

[Pisces69]

It costs a lot of $$$ to stand in the elections. This is to ensure that as few pple as possible will go up against them.

 

Those that do stand up R taking a big risk too. I salute them on this reason alone.

[Typhoonz]

 

They are quite good at that...

[Typhoonz]

I do too for their guts to take a stand against the whites...

 

Anyway, the funds for the whites are the people's money right?

=======================

 

If the pple r always complaining, then the good life is missing. Some countries protect their citizens till they shiok shiok. We don't ask for so much. Just a decent lifestyle at a reasonable price.

 

U just check how many pple don't have any real savings in the bank & then u realize how badly off we really are.

S'porean can adapt the rising price/living standard no matter which gahment took power la... cos of our successful kiasu will power .

 

Last time coe price shoot up until 70~80k... also got many ppl buying car .

 

Look at the HDB launched in SengKang/Ponggol... so many ppl queuing up. Even the price slightly higher... ppl still go and grap

That's why WE r the only ones who can make it hit 50% each side.

[Typhoonz]

Hope that I can vote for the next election...

[Blue2]

i think the onus to improve one's standard of living falls on the person himself, not the govt. there is only so much the govt can do, whether it's the PAP govt or the opposition.

==========================

 

Er....It's the gharmen responsibility to ensure that their pple have a good a life as possible. They have all the tools to "fix" the system.

 

Otherwise why we vote them in for? Just like a company. If the shareholders r not happy with the dividends & the directors keep increasing their own salary, have a EGM & vote the directors out & put a new team in their place.
