SRC Member limbssg Posted February 5, 2006 Author SRC Member Share Posted February 5, 2006 it is not necessarily what it seems like, there are some hidden meanings on that website... Unlike the elderly of other countries who waste away their time looking after their grandchildren, strolling in the park or playing a game of chess at the community club...the old in Singapore have far more important things to do like go to work. Yes, the PAP govt ensures that Singaporeans are motivated to work until a ripe old age because there is insufficient subsidy for their medical care and essentials. Also, when they were at their prime, they couldn't have saved much for their old age because they have to spend the bulk of the income to service the HDB loans for their subsidised housing. The Worker's Party tried recently to poison Singaporean's mind by suggesting that the elderly be given sufficient subsidy. How dare they damage the work ethnics of a 64 year old?! Elderly Singaporeans are so lucky they have to stay productive and work for a living. They are lucky the govt gives little aid and sells public housing at a price that takes more than 20 years of monthly instalments to pay up.

SRC Member limbssg Posted February 10, 2006 Author SRC Member Share Posted February 10, 2006 Politics in Mono..... Very long ago something like 30+ years ago, my father bought me a radio. The radio only had one speaker which is called mono, stereo wasn't so common in those days of the AM radio. I loved that radio, it was something from nothing. But then came stereo, I still kept that radio....even as the world move to surround sound - 5.1 speaker system, my good old radio is good enough for me. Listening to sound from 5 speakers is just too much for me. My love for my old radio mirrors my love for the Singapore political system. Even as many countries go beyond Democracy to give its people full transparency in the form of Freedom of Information, I'm glad our politics stayed in "mono". There is only one speaker - the PAP, no stereo or 5.1 surround sound to burden us with diversity of views. Singaporeans for the past 40 years have listened to this mono radio. Why burden yourself with so much information - one source is good enough. This past weeks the mono radio has been broadcasting nothing but GOOD NEWS..... the endless flow of GOOD NEWS has made all of us so happy. Singaporeans are so lucky to be listening to all this good news. .... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
