little rich poor country called singapore

[xingguy]

Ain't you contradicting yourself when you ask me in your earlier post that any sensible person wouldn't give money to fake beggars n i agree with u n now you're saying that does that mean that all beggars are fake....

Please read with your eyes open that i didn't claimed that all beggars are fake but those in China. If you're damn rich enough to give, i deem those beggars in China would be more than happy to receive from you.

A nation definitely looks better without beggars than with beggars. Do you want a beggar to squad everyday at your doorstep???

In case you post blind, now read with open eyes and see what you wrote in post #11,

Precisely no one will give money to fake beggars!!!! And what is your image of a particular country when you visit knowing that those beggars on the street are fake. It doesn't look good on the nation as well.

Just like an old woman selling tissue paper around commonwealth MRT. In order to pursuade people to buy, she'll always say she has cancer and going to have operation in SGH. The very first time i bought from her out of pity but subsequently knowing she kept using this as excuse, i stopped...

By your own implication, you are saying that those beggars on the street are fake.

One don't need to be rich to give.
Should the day come when a beggar squad everyday at anyone's doorstep, then the government have failed big time in looking after the poor and the destitute persons.

Don't you think something is very wrong with the leaders when the nation artificially "cleans up" its beggars with the Destitute Persons Act?

In the eyes of Kishore Mahbubani and Lee Kuan Yew, there are no beggars (fake or otherwise) in Singapore.

"There are no homeless, destitute or starving people [in Singapore]…Poverty has been eradicated."
-Kishore Mahbubani, Singapore's permanent representative to the UN

"You go down New York, Broadway. You will see the beggars, people of the streets...Where are the beggars in Singapore? Show me."
-Lee Kuan Yew

in a simple brief statement: Singapore leeders love donning their emperor's clothing, pretending to look good when they are actually awfully naked.

they are trying to do the same to our nation giving the world a false "perfection" of how efficiency they run Singapore. as if the world would surely believe. I bet many are giggling their toes.

this is the internet era, there's no way the gahmen going to do a 70s wayang show to present itself to the world. what a lame joker these bunch of jokers really are!

Face is very important to them.
Which is why old fart refuses to be placed in a wheelchair.
Anyone in his condition would be offer one should he/she visits the hospital.

Half truths/lies are even used to project to the world a false "perfection" of how efficiently Singapore is run.
In the video clip below $8 heart surgery cow spews his half truths/lies (at around 0:20) to foreign correspondent in an interview to Worldfocus:

"My Medisave is mine.
Your Medisave is yours.

I work hard, I earn more, My Medisave is bigger.
You're lazy, you work less, your Medisave is small.

I keep myself healthy. I hardly use it.
I don't go to the hospital, my Medisave grows.
I could not be bothered, I smoke, I drink, I'm obese, I don't exercise, I fall sick often, my Medisave get depleted."

In case you have a simple mind of can't even understand a phrase "what is your image of a particular country when you visit knowing that those beggars on the street are fake".... I wouldn't mind putting up a more clearer picture to you.

The sentence that you highlighted means that even the chinese locals knows that 80% n above of the beggars in China are fake and they belong to a group. For instance, just like typical Singaporeans like you when you see a chinese speaking loudly or spitting on the streets of SG, they will have an image of every single Chinese ppl doesn't have any manners or they are uncivilised which is not true.

HK are a very similar city to SG, why is the numbers of beggars today compare to 10 years ago drop drastically??? Becoz the HK govt also discouraged beggars on the street which doesn't reflects good on the city image.

Simple to say, if your house have ppl walking in n out with vulgarities, spitting, talking loudly, smoking n tattoos on the body, what's your neighbour image of you???

Lastly, if SG govt can wipe out even Secret Society or Street Gangs in Singapore, I dun see why the need of having beggars on the street... If you're so merciful and like to do charity, you can always go to those elderly homes, orphanage n etc to show your care n splash yr wealth....

I think the above should be easy to understand even for a retarded

Agreed, retarded retort like yours can only be understand by none others, except a retarded you.

How can you even compare SS or Street Gangs with beggars?? :*:

One is a menace to society while the other has fallen through the cracks.
Maybe the next thing you want the government to do is put these beggars in the slammer.

Selective examples to support your argument just shows how juvenilistic you are.
So, pray tell how did Hong Kong's numbers of beggars drop drastically today compare to 10 years ago?
Did they take the same approach as Singapore in implementing a Destitute Persons Act?

The true measure of any society can be found in how it treats its most vulnerable members.
Can the Singapore government claim to be compassionate and inclusive?

Think or are you one of those who cheers along with the emperor's new clothes.

Wow, beggars are not menace and i think you should be inviting beggars or street sleepers to your house for food n accomodation more often since to show you have a great heart for this people.

Pray doesn't tells the numbers of beggars n street sleepers dropping. Statistics from the HK govt tells. Go n check it out if you dun even know before even barking just for the sake of it.

HK did not take the same approach n need not to take the same approach as SG as every city has their own set of criteria in handling every issues but that does not mean HK or other countries in the world encourage beggars on the street. Ask any developed country govt who would prefer beggars on the street in their own country??? It means they are showing to the world that the country are not well with so many beggars on the street. A person with your wisdom which you claimed you're not retard can't even understand this philosophy???

If SS are menace, you mean beggars are not menace??? What kind of "smart wisdom" you posses!!!

Maybe just to your surprise, a beggar may go up to a gangster n ask for money but not a gangster going up to a beggar to ask for money!!! What kind of society contribution can a beggar contribute to the country or society???

 

[leetahbar]

first of all, we must ask why the gahmen wanna clear the beggars off the streets? if they couldn't provide for them, begging seems to be the only way for survival.

no one wanna be a beggar in the first place but at times circumstances just turn against the victim and reluctantly he ends up a beggar.

this thread is meant to remind us that we must display compassion, kindness and generosity but do it with a touch of wisdom and not the frivolous "any how give" manner. that's DUMMY COMPASSION or in simple term, idiot departing with his wealth.

 

[leetahbar]

our in denial pinky had bragged that " our beggars are not up to international standard...." a silly joke that is bashing at himself which he wasn't aware.

this alas, is the world's most obscenely paid pm with the peabrain of a cockroach. kek sim!!
