"We Feel Well Served": The Decline of the Singapore Dream Under PAP’s Rent-First Model

A white expatriate recently told me he admired the PAP government.

“They generally solve problems quickly. The infrastructure is excellent. My family lives well here — we get good pay, enjoy the lifestyle, and it’s a safe environment for our kids to grow up before we eventually return home. Honestly, I don’t get why Singaporeans complain.”

To him, Singapore works perfectly.

But the unspoken truth is this: Singapore works well for people like him because it runs on the backs of ordinary citizens like us.

The expatriate often receives preferential treatment(eg 2 standards stealing), which can be puzzling to those who don't understand the sinkies dynamics and may never fully comprehend them.
 
It's like I never gonna save enough to buy a new car :sick:

It is normal for those people in the lower tier in any society will have grievances. Just look at recent Indonesia and Nepal's protest. I can bet the middle class were not one the protesters.

I am sure thread starter is one of them.

Sinkie won’t decline so fast due to open door policy and let all scavengers come in. Property also let rich foreigners to wash money. The locals might need to sign on if they know they really cmi at outside.
