This is not a game of cardsThis is not a game of cards I can appreciate parties wanting to hold their cards close to their chest, but the smoke and mirrors games on nominations day, the shuffling of the DPM from a seat he had openly been declared to be defending, and other ministers shuffling constituencies leaves one feeling the PAP thinks it is playing a game of cards. Constituency...

我们是否该重新思考国防开支的优先顺序?

我们是否该重新思考国防开支的优先顺序?

新加坡政府近日宣布将采购两艘额外的“无畏级”潜艇,引发了一个重要问题:我们的国防力量,到底需要多强? 毫无疑问,一个强大且可信的军队对于保障国家主权与威慑潜在威胁是不可或缺的。新加坡地处战略要冲,国土面积有限,因此需要一支现代化的武装部队。然而,当我们对比邻国——马来西亚拥有两艘潜艇、印尼正逐步扩展至十二艘——新加坡在水下战力上已处于领先地位。这不禁让人质疑,我们是否正引领着一场无声的区域军备竞赛? 问题在于:当威慑的需求被满足后,继续扩军是否已经超出必要? 一艘“无畏级”潜艇的估价超过十亿新元,还不包括长期的运营与维护成本。这两艘新潜艇的资金,若能转用于迫切的民生需求,例如医疗保健、老龄化支援、教育及弱势群体扶助,或许对社会的整体韧性更具意义。 政府一再强调国防开支是经过审慎规划的,但当生活成本日益上升,政府却仍需将消费税(Gst)提高至9%甚至更多,这种矛盾不禁令人困惑。如果某些战略性国防项目能够延后或循序推进,节省下来的资源是否可以用于社会发展呢? “全面防卫”不仅仅是硬件实力,更是要赢得人民的心与信任。让人民感到安心、有保障、受到重视,这种安全感无法靠潜艇来衡量,而是通过每一位国人的生活实感体现出来。 这并非是在呼吁削弱我们的国防,而是呼吁我们重新思考国家的优先事项。当我们继续推进军事现代化的同时,也不要忽视同样重要的任务——巩固社会契约、增强国民凝聚力。   Cwc-Ai

2025大选—明确授权,变化中的政治格局

2025大选—明确授权,变化中的政治格局

2025年大选结果无可争议,政府再次赢得了强有力的授权,稳固了其在新加坡政治格局中的主导地位。尽管选举结果并不令人意外,但胜利的过程却并非没有争议和复杂性。 值得注意的是,选区划分的变化在本次选战中发挥了重要作用。陈清木医生与徐顺全医生等资深反对派人物,因选区重划而受到显著影响——传统支持基础被分割或并入他区,无疑左右了某些关键选区的最终结果。虽然选区调整在新加坡选举历史上并不罕见,但其公平性与透明度仍持续引发讨论。 工人党虽稳守东北区的传统堡垒,但未能在本届大选中攻下新的选区。不过,该党仍获得两个非选区议员(Ncmp)席位,虽属安慰性质,却在象征意义上维持了国会内多元声音的存在。 更值得关注的是,本届大选所处的人口背景正经历剧烈变化。新加坡人口从2000年的约300万增长至2025年的超过500万。考虑到多年来出生率持续偏低,这一增长几乎可以肯定主要归因于移民流入,尤其可能在华人群体中增长显著。这一趋势对国家的社会结构和政治生态产生了深远影响。 展望2030年大选,各政党不仅要面对一如既往的选区调整与突发的全球事件,更需正视一个不断演变的社会结构。随着越来越多新移民成为国民,选民构成日益多元,政党在政策制定与信息传递上必须更具包容性与前瞻性。他们必须同时争取老一代公民与新加坡新公民的认同,回应共同关切,并跨越代际与文化差异的鸿沟。 在新加坡持续向前迈进的过程中,其政治也必须与时俱进——反映日益多元的人口现实,同时坚守国家的核心价值观:团结、韧性与务实。 Cwc-Ai

李光耀的失忆症

李光耀的失忆症

作者:颀洋(2010年2月3日) 像周期性循环,新加坡前总理李光耀每隔若干年,总爱就他亲手整死的南洋大学胡扯一番虚妄之言,挑动南大人的神经,然后若无其事地销声于无形,没有下文。最新一回,87岁的李光耀可鞭尸来了,他再次口不择言,对南大语无伦次恶评一番。 今年1月号的美国“国家地理”杂志刊载李老在去年7月 的一次访谈录。在关于南洋大学惨死的一节中,顶着内阁资政头衔的实权首领,眼不眨,手不软地往南大人的自尊伤口大量撒盐,说什么“后悔没有更早关 闭南洋大学,南大尽收劣等生,单靠华文在新加坡活不了;南大毕业的我方国会议员,也要政府有所行动,所以我把华文大学并入英文大学… …“云云。 访谈与回忆录南辕北辙 然而,李光耀以前可不是这样说的。1960年6月1 日,在推销他的“改革南大”计划时,信誓旦旦地对报界宣告:南洋大学绝不并入马大!1964年6月5日,李政权在一份声明中明确保证:南大经改善后,继续 以华语为教学媒介语,1980年8月16日,李光耀却手起刀落,南大身首异处。华文大学被英文大学连骨带渣地彻底鲸吞,云南园从此只闻美国广播公司,不见方块字。李氏此前所作的相关承诺,至此句句都成假。 李老在他的“回忆录”中,对华校学生有这样的溢美之 词:“华校生的世界是个生机蓬勃的世界… …生龙活虎,有理想,不自私…英校生无此表现… … ,无力跟华校生一较高低… …,我越来越感到害怕。“ 在同一本书中,他也给南大生戴上高帽说:“优秀学生一 定会上南大,教育水准比较高,能力比较高,组织办法比较有效率… …。” 今天,李光耀拐了个180度大转弯,把考进南大的华校生辱贬为“在新加坡活不了”的劣等生。这当然是胡说八道! 回顾当年南大同学所出版的众多学术刊物(有的是中英双 语,有的是中巫英三语),如“大学论坛”,“南洋教育”,“南洋研究”,“政治学报”,“社会科学研究集刊“,”数学年刊“,”化学年刊“,”中国语文学会年刊 “,”商学“等等,立论水平之高为全球学术界所称誉。 在短短25年历程中,南大栽培出来的博士人数之众,以及南大生在国际各个领域所作贡献之大,无不令李光耀所溺宠的英文大学相形失色,即使当今“冒牌南大”颁授的所谓“卓越校友奖”,得奖者有不少是南洋大学的老校友。 当然,树大有枯枝,南洋大学的学生不可能个个都优秀。 随手拈来,现成的例子有:那寥寥几个助纣为虐的国会议员,就为人的风骨而言,相较于南大模范校友谢太宝(Chia Thye Poh),简直就不入流! 语文价值因时地而异 平心而言,在新加坡,如果英文不灵光,要过好日子还真是吃力得很。此情此景,完全是李光耀对英文情有独钟的必然结果,绝对是人为的现实。 语文的实用价值因时而异,也因地而异,更因当权者而异,它与李光耀口中的贸易,半导体,电脑等的尖端科技与作业,绝无必然的因果连系。 中国四大发明靠的是方块字,中国经济神速起飞靠的也是方块字… …,凡此种种,李老理应心知肚明。他蓄谋杀害南大,早动手或晚动手,考量的全是政治,目的只有一个:保住政权。当年的政权争夺,主要是李光耀反共集团和左派阵营之间的较量。 李氏满怀成见,在华教和亲共之间画上等号,以致原有的恐共心理,加上对华校生“越来越害怕”的潜意识,令他感受到腹背受敌,政权岌岌可危。为着自保,他选择先发制人,于是背信弃义,大开杀戒,把南大和华文中小学砍尽杀绝,不留活口。 李光耀除反共和反华教外,对英文的痴恋更是爱得入心入肺,以致对诸如中国,日本,韩国,德国,俄罗斯,法国,意大利,西班牙,瑞典,挪威,芬兰等非…英语系的高科技先进大国,有意无意地视而不见,置若罔闻。 在其政权下,新加坡说英语的华人家庭从1980年的不 及20%,跃升到了今日的80%,华族传统的认祖情怀,在年轻人中早已七零八落,所剩无几,有些竟发出“不幸生为华人”的感叹。培育出如此无根后代,是李家政权的丰功伟绩?还是高昂代价?抑或深重罪孽?历史自有裁断。 南大冤死多年,刽子手在自家王国逍遥法外,如今更在光天化日之下,明目张胆地撬棺鞭尸,全世界受华文教育的炎黄子孙众目昭彰,孰可忍,孰不可忍!这笔民族债必须详细记入大中华的账簿上,时机到来时,历史一定会作出公正的总清算,当然是连本带利的清算!(大马南洋商报) 来源:《世华媒体》http: //www.mediachinese.com/node/3035  Read More →

李玮玲不会妥协

李玮玲不会妥协

作者:《星洲日报》 新加坡内阁资政李光耀的女儿李玮玲医生比喻自己“不为五斗米折腰”,并强调即使是会危害自身安全,她都不会违背原则或妥协。 身为国立脑神经医学院院长的李玮玲今日(周日,4月 18日)在《星期天时报》的专栏中,谈到1996年6月,她在美国Cleveland Clinic学习医治严重癫痫病时,一个差点被人打抢的惊险遭遇。 她说,在某周六(17日)的上午,她搭巴士到一个位于白人社区的基督教青年会(YMCA)游泳,却被好心的巴士司机指错站下车,结果发现自己迷失在黑人社区内。 正当她在彷徨时,一名年轻的黑人女郎走向她,问她是否迷路了?李医生当时还告诉她自己到错地方。这名女郎马上说︰“我会带你到车站搭你应该搭的巴士。” 正当她和女郎一起走向巴士站时,黑人女郎就问她身上有多少现金。李医生回答说︰“15美元。”,而且还打开钱包让女郎看里头的钞票。 即使被人用枪恐吓不妥协 黑人女郎即刻告诉李玮玲,她的丈夫嗜毒,目前在坐牢,自己没钱买奶粉和纸尿片给孩子,女郎还向李医生说︰“给我3美元买纸尿片。” 她知道即使给几块钱女黑人,对方也会用来买毒品,于是就拒绝对方。结果女黑人恐吓说她身上有枪,不过李玮玲却基于原则而拒绝妥协。 她们两人在巴士站互相怒目对峙了5至10分钟,刚好一辆巴士到站,她机警的跳上巴士才挣脱了女郎的纠缠。 当她身边的人(包括她的家人)在听到她的遭遇时,都不约而同的说她是极度愚勇。 李玮玲强调,无论是3元或100万元,自己绝不会资助嗜毒者的恶习。 来源:http://www.sinchew.com.my  Read More →

Houses remain overvalued in many countries where prices are now rising

Houses remain overvalued in many countries where prices are now rising

The Economist, 19 April 2010 HOUSING markets continue to strengthen, as The Economist’s latest survey of global house prices shows. Our periodic round-up was dominated for nearly a year by countries where house prices were falling year-on-year. But the latest available data show that in half of the 20 countries whose markets we monitor, house prices are higher than they were twelve months earlier. Since these indicators were last published at the end of 2009, house-price inflation has quickened in each of the seven countries where it was already positive. In Hong Kong, prices are more than a quarter above their level a year earlier. With the exception of Ireland, the pace of decline has slowed in countries where the market has yet to turn the corner. In America, two of the three measures we follow show that prices remain below their level a year earlier, but the Case-Shiller index of house prices in ten big cities was at the same level in January as it was a year earlier.
