So tell me what exactly has the PAP pre-empted or is it just empty boast?
....... So tell me, what exactly has the PAP fixed before the problem arises?

Alamak!, you were just born yesterday!

The Singapore story is legendary; Singapore's economic transformation within half a generation is almost a miracle known from the North Pole to the South Pole. And you are here asking me to dispense Singapore's successful economic strategies and development from the time Jurong was a swampland to the present when the modern buildings rise from the sea in Tuas!

Boy,boy you should have heeded your mother's advice and pay attention in school during lessons than playing BALLS!

What a load of crap! For their achievements, we have already paid them, re-elected them for near 5 decades, so we're even. You shld not drag out past glories done by different people and credit them to the present gen of leaders. Like I dont scold yr mother for what you do, altho I am tempted to.

only because the european countries over tax the rich, and they ran to countries like luxembourg which have low taxes, the rich europeans wealth inflate the GDP of luxembourg, but the natives did not benefit too much from the inflated GDP figures.

Never believe in stats. They don't tell the whole peekture. Luxembourg, Sinkeepoo, Qatar all have small populations, so when comparing them with nations with big populations sure win! It's like when you compare the wages of two people with twenty people. The average wages of the twenty will of course pull the figures down.

You will chuck your mother and father into old folks' home when you "already paid them". I understand your thinking, no need to explain.

You are twisting the logic, you don't appear to understand.

What a joke! The baby wants to cry like a baby but be treated as an adult.

The "younger generation" must have stylo-milo Starbucks frappuccino, while their parents will drink kopi-o from the kopitiam. The "younger generation" must have their MacDonald burger, while their parents eat char siew pow. The "younger generation" must work in air-con office or building, while their parents toil in the hot sun.

The baby still cries and want to be treated as an adult?

You beri the CAN, comparing Starbuck kopi and Mac burgers to HDB flats that cost 100s of $1000 excluding Interest. $ inflation aside, are you telling me that the younger generation who earns MORE than what their parents used to earn have to eat cha siew pow and kopi-o from kopitiam to pay for their expensive HDB flats? Nothing wrong about eating char siew pow and drinking kopi in kopitiam. To me, something is not right in this equation.

yes that too, but the most important thing is that low taxes for rich attract the rich, the rich will push up the GDP figure, especially on small population, like luxembourg.

Singapore has a higher per capita GDP than the USA and has surpassed Japan! You should all be extremely proud of your government.
