      You don’t know how lucky you are entitled brat… PAP is probably the best most visionary political party in the world. You want to live in europe or us that is in shambles with immigration, drugs and crime problems with outrageous inflation? Singapore cost of living is LOW compared to these countries. Deal with it… life is tough.

      As long as PAP is holding the 2/3 mandate, they do not need to seek a consensus from anyone. Suka suka they can raised to GST 10% after the GE big win. Thanks for those pap voters and new citizens that voted pap.

    the job market is so bad right now. I look at the influx of foreign talent paired with employers lowballing salary it's not looking too good for many of us hope the new cabinet can craft better policies to support locals. If this keeps up along with service businesses like f&b hiking prices up by 100% or more I don't think majority of will be able to survive the early career in Singapore. much less scrimp and save up for our housing and retirement. The gst hike was necessary but unfortunately our country is made up of too many sharks preying on such opportunity to cut a larger slice of the pie for themselves.

In this situation, we cannot fail to be the object of envy and resentment. Our real task in the coming period is to devise a pattern of relationships which will permit us to maintain this position of disparity without positive detriment to our national security. ... that Japan and the Philippines will be found to be the corner-stones of such a Pacific security system and that if we can contrive to retain effective control over these areas there can be no serious threat to our security from the East within our time.

    How to Trust the PAP? you tell me especially when he said "GST Hike will not hurt the poor" and impact is one-off, not permanent?
    These days, Trust Cannot Be Simply Granted.

    What is the prognosis for Singapore’s foreseeable future? There is hardly any potential talent in the opposition now or even in the future, and the continuity of the People’s Action Party’s (PAP) governance, though not palatable, seems to be an unbelievably foregone conclusion.

      When the opposition can present a better alternative than PAP perhaps it can be a reality but right now PAP are the best political party in the world. You want to be ruled by democrats or GOP? Get your head on straight.
