Many Singaporeans say it is pointless or useless to grumble on social media. I disagree. With pap's control of SG's media, we have to speak up on social media. Otherwise, Our views will not be heard. Also we have to increase the importance, relevance and reach of the social media so as to counter the stifling control of the pap on information. It is important that we post the truth on social media so that it gets more credible and more useful
Contrary to what many Singaporeans think, I believe many people including the following read social media regularly:
1. PAP cronies
2. Businesses
3. Statutory Boards
4. Ministry Staff
5. Ministers
6. LHL
7. Foreigners
If the above people dont read social media, they ignore it at their own peril.
1. PAP cronies read and react to social media by trying to smoke and cloud real issues affecting the image and reputation of the pap. The pap cronies will try to spin falsehoods to nullify social media inputs. We must persevere against such vile attempts by sticking to saying the truth. Truth always triumph over falsehood
2. Businesses react to media inputs. Social media has help to improve responsiveness to price fluctuations of SG oil companies, SG power, etc
3. Govt statutory Boards are afraid that their mistakes and wrong doings get highlighted in the social media and they pay special attention to social media postings
4. Ministries are now more responsive and less opaque in their information flow. Contrast this with Hep C, dengue and Zika responses by MOH
5. Sim Ann said Singaporeans kpkb. this shows that she reads social media and so do other ministers
6. LHL said he is flame proof. he knows Singaporeans are cursing him on social media
7. Nowadays, Indians in Mandarin Gardens are more civic conscious. They forbid their children to play cricket or football on the landscaped gardens. That shows that they know the valid bad comments on social media on their behaviours
So we must continue to speak the truth on social media to counter pap's control of SG media. We know that many people may read social media and as long as we speak the truth, it will have a positive effect.
