Guess you have already conceded that the incumbents have turned this nation into a failed one-party state and let down its children and their parents. MOE, NUS ftw! ;)

if it has failed, as what you have claimed. how come so many people got the financial power to own HDB flats ? eg, your parents etc.

weird huh.

:(:(:(

YES. IMPOSSIBLE. Those morons expect the opposition to be PERFECT in all aspects while turning a blind eye to the screw ups by the elite MIWs... Super wtf... They totally disregard the importance of a fair election. The gerrymandering is an insult to all Singaporeans.

But all I see on FB from those supporters are why Opposition is making so much noise, the clues are there all along... They are so ill prepared, how to allow them to run the country etc

If those of you who are expecting things to change... Face it. You will still see the usual excuses such as oppo is not good enough, I need to apply for BTO so cannot vote against PAP, I am in civil service so cannot bite the hand that feeds me, AHPTEC screwed up neglecting the screw ups by PA and other organisations..

Change? No sane capable person will stand up and represent idiots. So there will be no change. SG is still far.. Buy more lubricants to prepare for 5 more years of ass rimming policies..

What you see is bad doesn't mean it's bad to everyone else. You have your belief but others don't share the same belief = they are idiot?

If some other party take over, you will again face other issues as well. You can't expect any government to have perfect policy for everyone.

My reasons for not voting for the opposition:

1) I am not willing to be the idiot to vote for the opposition who will turn my estate into a slum through mismanagement and an unaccounted town council, just for the benefit of the rest of Singaporeans who wants to see more opposition in parliament.

2) I do not believe that the opposition can do a good job to manage Singapore if they cannot even do a good job managing a constituency.

3) Changing the ruling party will result in a change in policies, it will cause financial instability and plans put into action since long ago will be derailed.

4) There are ZERO competent opposition parties IMO.

1) This is the reason why singapore deserves to sink. Ppl voting for Selfish reasons like estate turning into slum when the fact of the matter aljuneid hougang and sengkang remains the same.

2) thats what they the pap want you to believe with all their smear campaign. Till now pap and lee hsien loong have no balls to call cpib to investigate them. And if you ask anyone living in opposition wards, they'll tell you theres absolutely no negative changes in the estate cleanliness and so fourth. On the contrary we have blatant mismanagement by nparks for gardens by the bay, LBW getting her company winning contracts in her own ward, blatant corruption in CCC with the head approving more than 100k to his own company (while KBW happily say theres no dishonesty) and who can forget ISD & SLA corruption.

3) FFS oppositions are singaporeans too and Policies will go thru cabinet and parliament for debate before any changes occur. pappies on the other hand is running sg like a business by privatizing all essential services like electricity, public transport, markets, etc, and flooding the market with cheap labour which surpresses wages.

4) There are far more incompetent pap ministers and mp than all the oppies combined IMO. Just look at the sh*t ministers have said past few years.

:):):)

I do not believe that PAP will be able to do anything even if I vote for the opposition. But the problem is I will not vote for any tom dick harry that comes my way just because they are on the other side of the fence. Plus other than WP and CSJ, the jokers that the other parties have put forward are really quite bad.

Why would I cast my vote on an undergrad etc. It's like sending someone a free meal ticket. Prove their worth first before standing for any matter please.

Of course, the reasons they gave and I stated are enough reasons to qualify them as idiots. Calling these as beliefs is an understatement... It is idolatry, worship, ignorance etc...

It is a shame to have a one party government that uses trickery and "threats" against its people during election. Yes, there is no perfect government, but it is stupid to expect perfection, by voting for the same one that screws you up.

I am voting for PAP. Best is walkover.

I don't see why I need to vote for opposition. Am living comfortably with the current system.

See, you judge people who don't share your belief as idiots. Why can't they enjoy the system and are finding ways to benefit from them as well? You think yourself who vote for oppy are above the them all. :s22::s22:

Yes they might screw up in some areas, but they do well in other areas as well. Look around, even roll royce honor Singapore. I believe every party will have their own strength and weakness. It just whether you are on the side that is benefiting or not.

will u void ur vote then?
cause a vote for PAP will b a vote for 6.9m population

Yes. Void. I rather not vote for any one.

I think its too simplistic to say do wrong stuff just gun for a by-election. Overseas media are watching as well, I think it shows how terribly run the country is if by-election are frequently called just because an MP has screwed up.

Most probably will get shot for saying this. I doubt the opposition are even qualified and intelligent enough to come up with the figures to introduce good policies to steer the country. Now is quite bad already, don't need any one to push us further down. My secret wish is for CSM to give some suggestions to our economy, he seems very credible.

Thats what the civil service is for. The civil service should be politically neutral and not be beholden to the incumbents. Singapore should aspire to achieve that.

Precisely!
If the said wannabes can't even handle national issues properly, what more can those one-off oppositions with no proper background do? They simply come across as riding on the negative sentiment against PAP, brand themselves as the heart of the people and gotcha?

It can't be that easy to hand them the 15k per month right :s8:

A widening income gap and disenchanted lower class will in the long run destabilise a country and its chances of sustained prosperity.

That's the ideal but unfortunately, it will not be reality at least for now.
Still, we would require a strong leader to steer, to approve and understand the feasibility of any proposal.
