National Conversation : Is for PAP to lecture us?

Once the so-called National Education starts, PAP MPs and ministers all jump onto the bandwagon. One started by calling those who are opposed to more foreigners xenophobic and negative. This theme was mooted by PM Lee himself during the National Day rally. PAP went on to paint Singaporeans in negative light - not big heart, small minded, ungenerous people. It is clear the PAP has a negative view of ordinary Singaporeans ..that is why the National Conversation start with the PAP lecturing us to be better people. 

Now Sim Ann wrote in her facebook:

Friend : Yeah, start with slaying the "cow-peh" and "cow-bu"

This is the latest of a list of insinuations by the PAP MPs that Singaporeans complaining people. This is very insulting. So that is how they will treat what Singaporeans say as complaints. When they are listening to us in a conversation - if we point out something is wrong, we cow-peh, cow-bu. 

The PAP (more accurately through SMRT) ran a transport system that broke down. On better days, they transport Singaporeans in crowded buses and trains like cattle. When you speak up about this, they say why you complain, why so negative...FT never complain, why you complain.

In a conversation, we are not going to talk about issues as equals. The PAP that brushed off our concerns will continue to brush off your concerns. Electricity tariffs too high? Got GST voucher and it is based on oil price...why you complain? They never think that electricity has more than double (or tripled?) but that person still make the same pay or lower since 10 years ago. 

This whole thing is NOT a CONVERSATION. It is the PAP getting the people to accept decisions they will make because they face strong opposition to what they do from the ground...and they start by arrogantly pointing what they view as negative traits in Singaporeans. So the PAP very good? 

Singaporeans suffered from very bad policies in the last 10 years, housing price shoot up, car prices shoot up, foreigners competing for our jobs, structural unemployment. Many PAP schemes as CPF which is for retirement does not ensure most people can retire. More people than before are falling into the poverty trap due to extremely low wages at the bottom 30%. Yet ministers and MPs sit up there collecting the highest pay in the world want to lecture us to be better people. 

Sometimes people of other countries call us "sheep" because we are so obedient to the govt. The PAP say Singaporeans like this and like that. ...but the truth is Singaporeans suffered under their bad policies - like building casinos that destroyed many families. When we try to converse with them, they now say we "cow-peh, cow-bu". Their arrogance is sickening. We give them power and they use the power like this.

That is why they say CONVERSATION. Immediately, people shut-up...they can go talk to their own supporters and right wingers who will sing praise about the PAP system. Singaporeans who oppose the govt policies know they have to elect opposition into parliament to be treated seriously. The minute you give absolute power to PAP, they treat you like sheep, you have no say.




There is no more respect for the Singaporean these days on issues that matter to them.
