Because we love our country, cosnider these points before u vote:-
1) I don't want to often see PAP MPs sleeping when Parliament sessions were on going.
2) I don't like to see Parliament so empty of MPs when Parliament is in session.
3) I don't like to see some PAP MPs hardly asked or at most asked only a few token questions on their constituents' behalf whether it is the cost of living or transportation or educational or CPF or housing issues but collect their fat MP allowance punctually every month without fail.
4) I want our Constitution to be solemnly respected and not changed at whim such as turning an Indian woman into a reserved Malay presidential candidate with ease.
5) I disagree about paying political salary cum bonuses and making it into a goldmine and MPs taking up directorships in companies shouldn't be another connection or route to more goldmines.
6) I disagree allowing anybody to use our Parliament to clear his/her name instead of our courts. Parliament and Parliamentary time, resources and Members of Parliament must never be used or misused by anybody for such purposes.
7) I take Word of Honour seriously and I want the PAP government to equally honour its own Word of Honour given to Singaporeans on the returning of their CPF savings at their 55 birthday seriously. At the very, very least, give people a choice to either op-in or opt-out of their schemes and not simply legislate and conveniently neglected whatever promises made earlier and "bully" our citizens.
I don't like it when we are one of the world's top retirement fund savers but so many people after decades of saving find themselves faced with retirement inadequacies and living in a declining value flat with failing health.
9) I support the Foreign Talent policy but I don't like it when the government has overdone it, taking the easy and lazy way without realising it and resulting in our citizens paying the price for it at the ground level and on a daily basis.
10) I don't like it when top people or PAP Ministers always get away scot-free when fiascos happened under their charge but the blame always fall on some junior people whether it was the MRT tunnel flooding or fatal accident at Pasir Ris station or train collision at Joo Koon station. Another example would be the Hepatitis C outbreak that killed innocent people at SGH or our military training accident deaths etc....
11) I don't like it when AMK GRC residents' S&C fees were lost for 2 years and their 6 PAP MPs there could simply continue to behave as if nothing has happened and/or nothing to do with them and continue with their more good years. None resigned in shame or at least, offered to resign.
12) I don't like it, in fact, I consider it to be an insult when I read that Goh Chok Tong considers those who earn less than S$500,000 annually to be mediocre.
13) I don't like it when I read that Goh Chok Tong said that PAP Ministers are not paid enough.
14) I don't like it when I read that Edwin Tong lamented that he has to support his parents-in-law too and that it is tough for him with the political salary that he is earning.
15) I don't like our Parliament and Cabinet being made up of only book-smart people and people with impeccable educational credentials. Life is not a straight line and all kinds of people make up our society and country. We are so short of, for example, people who fail in businesses but sebsequently make good or succeed in life being represented in Parliament or people who are not highly educated and struggle a great deal in life but are good, caring and decent Parliamentarians. These sort of people will add breadth and depth to our Parliament and we will be richer for it if only we are prepared to open up our minds and cast our nets wider. Alibaba's Ma Yun taught us to choose the most suitable people and not necessarily the best people. Mr Ngiam Tong Dow has warned us too that the PAP has become too elitist.
16) We badly need more Parliamentarians who can and are willing and dare to speak up for the people even if they displease the government and not just knowing how to say 'yes sir, yes sir'.
17) I don't like Amy Khor, a Malaysian-born Singapore politician telling Singaporeans that if we are unhappy here, we can pack up and leave Singapore.
18) I don't like seeing the picture of former PAP MP, Penny Low, looking down and fiddling with her handphone during a NDP when our national anthem was being played.
19) I do not like the policy that 1st generation new citizens need not serve national service. Life anywhere is a matter of give and take and not just take and take and serving national service even in non-combat vocation must be a consideration for all new citizens if they eventually choose to settle here. We need to be firmer and more principled and I feel that the PAP government has done poorly with the current policy.
20) I don't like the practice that land cost is factored into the final selling prices of HDB flats when buyers are only buying the right to live for a specific period of time with no claim or rights whatsoever to the land. This unfair and greedy policy unfairly burdens our flat buyers over many years.
21) I don't like the practice that the PAP government is very good at passing laws in Parliament that benefit themselves at our expense.
22) I don't like that a lot of public info shld be made public but become secret. Eg salary of Temasek management and bribery case of Keppel
23) I don't like that our ministers are deployed to other ministry or even run our state own companies when he has underperformed
24) I don't like it when many town council, CC or PCF meetings when all the attendees are told beforehand that minister is in meeting, only say things minister like to hear. Not to say other things even it is constructive.
25) I don't like it when ministers are drawing fat salary working part time and hold 60 over other positions.
26) I don't like it when our elderly are trying to make ends meet collecting cardboard and our minister say they are exercising.
27) I love my country and I hope we can all do our part to make it better.
