- I took a bus yesterday that was crowded and smelly,
- Had to endure a traffic jam,
- Paid $1.7 (not cheap=( ) for my bus ride,
- Bumped into an old man picking cardboard boxes.
- Ran into a large mass of foreign workers after that.
People are paying much more to take a bus, (look at London, Sydney or any other developed country)
People pay much more than 7% GST - some pay up to 15% government tax
They wait longer in a jam(some up to a few hours, think about Bangkok, Shanghai, and quite a few other countries),
Many more are homeless and destitute, they sleep in the streets and beg for money, more so than here.
At least the old man picking cardboard has a job and a roof over his head.
Construction projects are left as empty shells simply because the contractors go bust due to lack of funds and manpower.
At least we have imported workers who can do the work to make Singapore a better place.
Touch your heart and ask yourself. Is Singapore under poor governance?
Or is it just a bunch of people brandishing slogans and relying on the number one pastime of Singaporeans - Complaining?
We need someone to listen to us, someone who isn’t arrogant and greedy.
But the opposition, please don’t go around grousing about the issues of cost of living, taxes, Foreign workers or social welfare.
Stop mudslinging the incumbents
We are much better off than almost everywhere else. You only lose credibility by saying all these.
Talk about how you can make Singapore a better place, Show us that it’s more than just talk.
Maybe in 5 years time, you will have my vote.
