It's so sad that we always have to wait every 5 years to hear the govt say they have done wrong, ie the general election time. From now till Dec 2015, the govt will insist on bringing foreigners will solve every bit of the national issues.
Newly converted citizens will give PAP the sympathy/loyalty vote.

If they allow themselves to be converted, I won't think much about their loyalty.

Its no joke.
I did asked a stranger who is a new citizen whether does she feel 100% of new citizens will vote for pap out of indebtedness or sympathy.
She said yes, of course.

take away those votes who have been working in the GICs or related agencies...the result would be startlingly great and different....

I asked another new citizen. She say she vote for opposition because she don't want more of their people in Singapore.

eh... I meant, U accept more immigrant to offset the higher ratio of older population to younger population, thus making it as if no such problem, but the older population still remains the same...
besides, once these "immigrant" (do note the word immigrant is different from foreign worker) grow up, it will be an even worse ageing problem becoz it will look as if we have a population boom (which we are right now)... so how? import even more immigrant? the problem will just snowball itself, getting worse each generation...
of coz those higher up MIW wont care so much since they'll be long dead by then...
curel as it might seem, a suitable solution would be to cut down on older population subsidy (health etc etc) and brace for the impact of a greying population (low work force thus low economic etc etc), tahan for half a generation and then the problem will slowly reslove, better then u keep delaying and snowballing the problem... the problem is inevitable, it will come sooner or later... -

Also, currently, there is also a showing where the top hero LTK could bring in a team where one member is PS where not even LKY could ever bring in before in his service. PS's resume said he is a professional student all the way(rich parents) from BA to MA(war studies) to dip islamic studies and now p/g student in SMU. Now I could appreciate that sme boss and top hero LTK is even more capable than spore founder LKY. That part-time GCT was even struggling to bring in a TPL who has already worked for 4/5 yrs. Let's continue to watch the movie.... However, life is not going to follow the script or scripts above.

i think singapore should not continue to accept so many immigrants in to our country and focus more on trying to increase our birth rate, deal with the increasing polarising effect foreigners are having on our country. either or we are all going to sink together on a sinking boat full of excess load and with a ineffective leaders who are due to be replaced
