Are you a slave to the government
I just found it relevant to Singapore condition. Thought why not share it.
Gary: He said to me at the lift lobby 90% of the exact words - ”Mr Tan,if you walk out of here tomorrow,you might get killed.You might meet with a mysterious accident,you might disappear and nobody will know what happened to you! Mr Tan, some things and people in this country you cannot offend! Some people are above all things! You better make sure you know this! Mr Tan,we can arrange for things to happen to you.You understand or not!”

No I do not forget. I'm even disappointed with the current general election.
But with my past experience I put Singapore government no better than Iraq under Saddam, North Korea, Myanmar junta and the current communist PRC.

The same reason why Singaporeans put up with PAP and LKY regime.

because that is their home!
you are a slave to the credit cards company, if you signed without thinking. but don't forget the things you bought and the pleasure you had.
you are slave to your house, if you have to take loan to buy one, but don't forget the comfort when it rains in the night.
you are slave to your company, if you have to work so hard ended up forgetting your family, taking a very high salary?
Are you a free man with choice? or you chose to be a slave?

Heh, a very good question.
Considering that we're born drug addicts to the chemicals secreted by our brains, were we ever free to begin with?

Freedom can also be slavery of choice.

No, the chinese are also people who dun just give up easily, given a limelight, they will survive and expand better than most other races, and they are hardworking and good in business too. There is alway a light in end of the tunnel for the Chinese
As for Singaporeans, we are talking about a multi-racial society, not just merely chinese, it is not that singaporeans have to put up with the PAP, it is kind of mentality that until a better one come along, we might not put up PAP anymore, but so far, no one seem to be that better, and even if there is better one coming, their supporters are not rallying in the correct direction, eg as shown in these forums, a total disappointment.
