SG will collapse if PAP is out of power for 2 terms. 1 term under WP and AHPETC already collapsing. We can only imagine the damage they can do on the national level
If you do it with a REAL heart to serve the people, even if you make a couple of mistakes along the way, people can feel you trying your best, that itself is ONE thing. Personally, I felt LKY had done that, people have confident on him over the many years, even under his directives were never a easy one. Everyone work hard, followed his direction as one.
Whereas, if the real objectives are not/very little about the people, rather than, just GDP needs to keep moving up the tide (people serving the office need to always pugged to the successful CEOs), at any cost. People are left out, people lives are affected. Who cares if you give them full of A's on the reportbook but on the ground people don't feel they benefitted from the GDP, they are not part of the family, they don't feel been part of the family, they don't feel their voice been addressed sincerely ; so what the point of making less mistakes. It just don't affect the regular people on the street with or without mistakes made. With any extreme alternative voices classified as good as insane mind.
Topping in class in several areas, best airport, highest this, highest that; well, yes, it give a good name to Singapore around the world. Paradize, a good place to live if you have lots of money. That does not equal to the people currently living in Singapore all their life.
Are majority rich? No.
Are majority happy? Reaching a No.
Are majority comfortable? Well, we do have comfortable decent housing to live and still affordable econmony rice to eat. Not yet a No.
Are majority cash rich that can afford decent retirement? No.
These are the area the party should be focusing to get their As first. It is never easy like running a MRT without any glitches, but have they try hard enough to convince us that they are not sitting in the office doing paper calculation like an accountant, putting statistics that is meaningless without going down to the ground themselves everyday and feel the heat. By putting up the average chart is NOT the same as everyday facing the heat on the ground.
Talk should be cheap, and if it all about talking, they shouldn't be paid that high then.
Get the ministers themselves everyday, at least a few hours on the ground, without pre-schedule arrangements wayang show and feel for youself the heat. Everyday get into the sardine packed MRT and feel for yourself why people are complainting. Sit at bus stop and wait for the sardine packed buses to come, feel for yourself. Go to coffeeshop and eat, feel for yourself if you only make less than 2k a month.
Talk is always cheap. I can also talk like one.
