Increase pay first.
Then GST.
Cannot increase their pay first, pple will not be happy.
Do it in a discreet way.
Increase gst first, follow by tolls charges, follow by water charges, follow by again electricity charges, a very very minor increase will lead to a billions of money they can collect per month. That will be enough for their pay increase.
Just look at your five fingers, thumb give money, middle fingers deduct money, last finger increase money...still got 2 more fingers in reserve. They forever rich while we will be poorer with little or zero saving.

What children? What people?
You must be kidding me.
There is no more Singaporean.
We are ImmigrantSingaporean, AirSingaporean.
I am reminded of the film piracy ad you see in the cinema.
One day, the situation in Singapore will be the same:
"Daddy, daddy, what are opposition parties?"
"Well, in my day, they were political parties which provided checks and balances against the government"
"Then what happened to these political parties?"
Message: Vote wisely before opposition parties become a thing of the past.
how do u vote? never had the chance for last 20 years
TO cut the story short I don't know what I'm defending anymore
Got a feeling that this election will be different many working class sporeans are tired of always being asked to sacrifice for the nation but PAP forgot the people are the nation how many sporeans earn more than 6k/mth nowadays given the influx of FTs?
Our living costs just keep going up but wages remain stagnant for most workers.....like said I'm moving to the great white north if things dun improve..even if I end up as a tramp there could still pick fruits and farm for subsistence...

My usual advice to these situations:
Listen to the 6 minute extended version of "Home" .
Again and again.
must think loong term.
Every government degenerates when trusted to the
rulers of the people alone. The people themselves are its only safe
depositories.
Thomas jefferson
I vote for the winner.
vote for opposition with better educated n practical people.dont vote for lame ducks like PAP or other lame duck oppositions!
better educated conditioned and better practical condition people are needed.they must be both conditions and not just one condition.
reason 1:better educated trains the mind of people from math to knowing what is right n wrong.science and tech also creates more techno progress and $$$$$$$ to create, build n design with knowledge.
reason 2:better practical people who know whats possible and impossible in the world and have hands down approach in the past would be great to build up everything and secure reason 1.be it military or civilian.

So how many of you would vote opposition just because they are not PAP?
Originally posted by ditzy:So how many of you would vote opposition just because they are not PAP?
People don't vote opposition just because they are not PAP. They vote opposition to provide check and balance, they are victims of PAP policies, and other reasons.
would vote WP as they have a team as good as PAP.
your vote need not be a secret!!advertise the party u want n need!!show it out front n expose the frauds !
in fact everyone who thinks WP or SDP or etc etc opposition is good..they should all congregate there...and everyonewho think pap is good should congregate to another area....
that way we actually know if election results is real or fake.
