I have been surfing this forum intermittently for a few years and am saddened at the attitude displayed by many forummers here.
Singapore is a land of plenty, where opportunities abound. Yet forummers here seem to be constantly griping about the perceived lack of opportunities, the gap between the rich and poor, the high cost of living and property prices, the influx of foreigners, indeed almost every facet of Singaporean life.
Instead of pulling up their socks and buckling up their boots, sammyboy forummers seem to be content with being keyboard warriors, venting their frustrations fruitlessly and aimlessly at the PAP Government. This is silly and unproductive.
Rather than complaining endlessly and needlessly about how foreigners are competiting for jobs and pushing up the property prices, forummers should be grateful to the PAP Government for building a safe, secure and meritocratic Singapore, where effort is rewarded, where taxes are extremely low, where property rights are respected, and where there is rule of law.
In Singapore, anyone who puts in his or her fair share of effort and creativity can aim for that Pot Of Gold and strike it big. The policies put in place by the PAP Government ensures that everyone has a level playing field and a chance to build that Singapore Dream. We should welcome foreigners into our midst as they create new and better jobs for all Singaporeans. And we should welcome asset appreciation as well, as it puts money directly into our pockets, and enables all Singaporeans to retire comfortably.
So from today onwards, I will be defending PAP policies and arguing on behalf of the much-maligned PAP. Truly, forummers here are unaware of the blessings which they have, the abundant opportunities that await them in the real world. Our truly open market economy, our extraordinary low crime rate, and our vibrant entreprenural climate and pro-business environment makes Singapore one of the best places in the world to live.
For all this, we truly must thank the PAP.
