Thank you Mr Lee for making Singapore the wonderland for the rich and the most expensive city to live in the world with million dollar public flats.

Climate Change is really a teething issue. Hopefully, Singapore can tackle it successfully.

Warnings that the global landscape Singapore faces could be more precarious than ever before, and emphasized that Mr Wong will need to bring fresh ideas, wisdom, and experience to effectively lead the country.

Minister Sir, first of all nice haircut - you remind me more of your great late father. May he rest in peace. Second, great speech, we Singaporeans will continue to remember PAP legacy esp in this year GE. We love you sir, and for all the sacrifices you had to do in spite of what your family has done for you. You have endured a lot of hardship for our country. I am crying as I am writing this. We love you sir. You will always be remembered. Third, Great Minister sir, I hope you put on some weight and take care of yourself during your retirement. Your health is very important as you and your descendants contribute to the greatness of this country. 千里之堤，溃于蚁穴. This is why we must vote PAP and the godly work they have done. This is very important especially to all the young generation.

How much in the bank ? That is a relevant question. Not only does SGreans want to know that answer. Singaporeans also want to know how much your wife is paid as Chairman of the biggest Sovereign Wealth Funds of Singapore. SGreans whose money is being managed by her has a right to know how much she is being paid. It is ludicrous to keep that a secret.

Singapore is successful because of many factors ,mainly it's locations,high cpf saving,low corruption ,citizens who have strong discipline n willing to follow the laws n rules of society,leaders who can plan ahead , n mobilise citizens to sacrifice the immediate needs for a better future .Going forward , if citizens reach a point where it is too painful to carry on to bear the sacrifices ,then problems will arise.Leaders ,if continue to take more remunerations ,n give less to citizens,n corruptions being to erode in society. Singapore will be in great trouble.
