DBS Bank and Western Union a freaking joke As a former small businessman from the “Merdeka” Generation, I find that the stupidity of some businesses or its staff are simply beyond comprehension.
I have a son who is getting married next month to a PRC girl in a small city in China. As I am already old and mobility is an issue, I am physically unable to attend...
When Will These Idiots Learn?
Snapped this photo while driving.
Apparently written by FTs claiming LKY is the founder of Singapore when it is a known fact that the Founder of Singapore was actually Raffles.

Was there a together 10 million population plan? Was there a together 10 million Plan? Er... Heng Swee Kiat said there was no such plan. Vivian Balakrishnan accused the SDP of sprouting falsehoods in their 4Y 1N election campaign. Now that the heat of electioneering is doused, let us calmly attempt to understand the significance of the 10 million figure and its impact...
100 Bullshit Jobs
For a population of 5.5 M, we have a PM, a DPM, TWO senior ministers, and THREE ministers in PM office., plus a host of other Ministers.. --sheeesh.!
All highly paid..from tax payers' money..!

Li ShengWu on the court's judgement against him Apparently the court has rendered judgement on my case today, and fined me $15,000 for a comment made to my friends on Facebook. I disagree with the judgement, and worry that it will reinforce the PAP's tendency to suppress ordinary political speech. In response to three words in a private Facebook post, the government...

Li Xueying, Straits Times 2 Feb 08;
He projects optimum size of 5.5m to preserve open spaces and sense of comfort
MINISTER Mentor Lee Kuan Yew 'has not quite been sold' on the idea of a 6.5 million population size in Singapore.
Instead, he projects for...
Historian Michael Barr reflects on GE2020 - 'PAP govt is... The People’s Action Party (PAP) government of Singapore has suffered its worst ever election result, but Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong has suggested merely that the result was “not as strong an endorsement as hoped”.
Individual swings against the ruling party of up to 27 per cent and typically 6–15 per cent...
WP’s Yee Jenn Jong rebuts Lawrence Wong With due respect to Minister Lawrence Wong, I do not think this 'desire for diverse voices, checks and balances' is something new that will cause PAP's vote share to be unlikely to exceed 65% in future.
A blank cheque was given to the PAP in 1968 when the Barisan Socialis boycotted the GE. That allowed the PAP to cement...
Why I Voted Against PAP at Ang Mo Kio GRC I read the article "I trusted PAP for far too long" and "I am Sengkang voter", I totally agree with their observations. I said the same thing about two decades ago to all my friends and relatives, few people agreed with me and even said I am hardcore opposition.
Today, I am proven right, those who did not agree with...
Lawrence Wong should stop acting like the grand saga of PAP
Come on Lawrence Wong, the Workers Party MPs are not school boys and girls elected into parliament. Neither are you a school prefect watching over your charges. Pritam Singh, Sylvia Lim and you were elected into parliament in the same year in 2011.
But with one big difference – you came in on the coattails of two...
GE2020 shows us that we need less 'Indian Chief' opposition... * Take Note Only Contested Seats are Counted.
Since 2011 all seats have been contested. But from 2006 and prior, only the contested seats determined the % of votes.
So if the Reform Party and Red Dot United did not run, and Jurong, AMK and Radin Mas were walkovers, the PAP mandate would only be 58.7%
It would be...
Entrenching the Right to Vote in Free and Fair Elections... With Singapore GE2020 over and lapses relating to the election administration during this pandemic surfacing even as I write this, my legal cases over the years are highly relevant as they have sought to establish through various legal judgments where in Singapore law, the right to vote is fundamentally located?
I have...
Post GE 2020 Thoughts I would like to share my thoughts post GE2020. Yes, the result of this election has proven PAP wrong. More people than pap was expecting voted for the opposition. Yes, most of us would agree there are many things wrong with pap. There are different reasons why people voted for the opposition and they can be grouped...
Grant town council funds to Sengkang GRC Please support this if you feel that your money should not be politicised to the benefit of the PAP and its political grassroots advisers.
It is time that things are done differently, fairly, and honestly, respecting the people's choice of MPs.
Let us push back against the PA and PAP using public funds to politically...
Why I feel that the PAP still lost the elections In order to consider of one winning the elections a Political Party must win the broad spectrum of the populations, especially the educated and those well informed of the policies of the Government that effect the lives of of the local communities.
Let me explain my arguments. I live in Macpherson where the majority...
