What are the people grouses against PAP in power?
-
1) too many foreigners coming to Singapore to pollute its culture, take away local jobs, too many crimes committed by foreigners?
2) lost touch with the common people after being in power for many decades?
3) too autocratic and dictator like control and command?

Wow.. u upgrade become moderator liao!

I am not important. important is the topic, quick.

4) Mas Selamat Escape lor. NSFs get extra duties without any OFF after the duties? No single appreciation of thanks from the army or any of the ministers.
5) Fresh graduates cant find a job or cant find a job that pays well. Wages depressed by foreigners who expect a lot less
6) NS. 2 years of mandatory NS, govt has to do something to safeguard jobs (as they are delayed as compared to foreigners and women who have that 2 years extra to gain more experience) and also provide preferential treatment to show appreciation towards the guys here, and not $200 extra bonus or the $9000 CPF topup. Govt must ensure ICT, RT does not disrupt men's careers.
7) Transport infrastructure. Everyday jams at expressways. Poor and inadequate bus / MRT services - poor frequencies / overcrowding.
8) Cost of living - Groceries and food prices keep going up. NTUC's role as price moderator for groceries doesnt seem to take much impact?
9) The right "talents". Talents that we do not have, and not talents we have, but only thing FT brought in was based on the fact that they are cheaper to hire.
10) The right workers. We do not need so many service staff (sales assistant / waiters / waitresses / store manager / doctors) from overseas. Foreigner workers needed only for nursing / maid / cleaning / construction / transport workers (bus drivers).
11) Foreign students on S'pore govt scholarships. The govt should provide more scholarship opportunities to locals here instead of heavily granting most scholarships to foreign students. Limit number of scholarships given to foreigners, ensure only good ones come in, and not any foreigner. -
12) Elderly discarded except one.
-
13) CPF amounts. Seems like we can never expect to take any single cent out by the time we, youngsters reach 55. Everytime increasing the amount. =X
14) Cost of medicine / medical treatment / hospitalisation. -
13) skyhigh housing
14) $8 medical bill for the elite sell your house to pay the medical bill for the poor
15) unaccountable for all the mistakes
-
16) China Suzhou park initiative which we are duped into investing and we still have to kiss their assess.
-
17) Elderly discarded except one's daughter-in-law losing taxpayers' money and still have the gall to stay on.
-
18) Elderly discarded except one's son so out of touch with people that he did not know that there's no hum in mee siam.
-
19) Contract jobs that will led us to eventual poverty, despair and dying on streets.
-
20) Internal Security Act which is used to benefit and punish dissenters by the PAP.

Point 6 and 8 is my most concern.
