Who are the victims of the NUS peeping tom incident?
I want to make a statement that will appear to be controversial.
Most people think that Monica Baey is still the victim today.

It seems like it is better to be a panda in Singapore Ministry of Social and Family Development (MSF) assists average about 300 homeless cases each year - which it defined as people who have no means of accommodation.
If the government can plan and build Jewel Changi Airport at a cost of $1.7 billion, then it should be able to plan and provide these homeless people a roof...

2. We were told numerous times that the gov will tackle the high cost of living but Singapore is still perched at the top of the list for most expensive cities to live in the world.

PAP Government made three fundamental errors 1) It allowed the use of CPF (retirement) money on HDB flats which are basically depreciating assets because of the 99-year lease.
2) It told Singapore earlier that the price of HDB flats would never go down. As a result, there was a property bubble when flats in the resale market were selling at a higher price than...
