Despite domestic issues/conflicts that Singaporeans face, We must agree that Singapore has done extremely well, survived and is still booming. I may have migrated to another country, but I will always say “ Nothing Beats Singapore la!” The feeling of security when I see an SQ flight at any airport is unexplainable 😁 The fact that StarHub and SingTel outlets were OPENED on New Year’s Day literally made my jaw drop!! Life is never or seldom Greener on the other side ( as much as we want to think). I’m always a proud Singaporean and I always get goosebumps hearing the National anthem and alll the National Day songs ( We are Singapore, We are Singapore, We will stand together hear the Lion roar...)🙌🏽🙌🏽

To be objective, we can't choose where we are born but Singapore is up there in the sense that there are many things working in favour of citizens, MSF takes care of citizens who require financial assistance and housing, there are measures in place to subsidise low income households (CHAS card etc), there are lots of charities that step in to take care of the underprivileged and easy access to crowdfunding platforms. It may not be an ideal place for some but there is the option to move countries because we are mostly in a good position to do so. Singapore is indeed blessed, people who have lived overseas tend to appreciate what Singapore has. No country is perfect, I would like to see Singaporeans take an active role in improving their community instead of leaving it to others and then complaining about it.

It's a given China is and soon India will become world centers of commerce and innovation. It's a question of numbers, simple math. Once they get everyone off the farm, they have more minds. Some of those minds will provide innovation. They'll have more patents and Nobel Prizes; and the world will be better for it. And once everyone is educated in those countries, maybe the birth rates and their populations will decline. It looks like Russia might be changing its stripes. If they become anything like a true democracy, it will be much easier to purchase Russian products and services. Wish China would also move in that direction.

I am a Singaporean, and a "product" of this system. I appreciate the long-range thinking of our leaders, and the strength to make unpopular decisions that are good for our future. And time and again, it has been proven right. I do not take our prosperity for granted. As a Commodity, as you have mentioned, myself, I am not economic robot. Far from it. I have left a cushy job and become a freelance photographer pursuing my passion, for the past 10 years now. I do not feel pressured to live a particular way too. In fact, it is the stable political and economic climate of our nation that allows us more freedom than many other developed countries to pursue what our hearts desire. If you talk about aspirations of the Elite, it is a broad term. There are elites who only care about their own right, and in the case of politicians, popularity. And then there are elites who have genuine care for people under their charge, with evidence to show.

People's votes do not count.. they just show the fixed government where dissent lies. Singapore people apart from the one percent looked downright miserable. It is highly regulated and you can see the discontent etched on the vast majorities faces. It is in essence a police state.

Singapore has consistently been rated as the least-corrupt country in Asia and amongst the top ten cleanest in the world by Transparency International.[4][5] The World Bank's governance indicators have also rated Singapore highly on rule of law, control of corruption and government effectiveness. However, it is widely perceived that some aspects of the political process, civil liberties, and political and human rights are lacking.[6] The Economist Intelligence Unit rated Singapore a "flawed democracy" in 2018.[7][needs update] Freedom House deemed the press "not free" in 2015.[8]
@stephenmonash8214 жыл бұрын
Although Singapore's laws are inherited from British and British Indian laws, including many elements of English common law, the PAP has also consistently rejected liberal democratic values, which it typifies as Western and states that there should not be a 'one-size-fits-all' solution to a democracy. Laws restricting the freedom of speech exist to prohibit speech that may breed ill will or cause disharmony within Singapore's multiracial, multi-religious society. For example, in September 2005, three bloggers were convicted of sedition for posting racist remarks targeting minorities.[25] Some offences can lead to heavy fines or caning and there are laws which allow capital punishment in Singapore for first-degree murder and drug trafficking.
