Dear friends,

We have more interesting views from the ground.

This is their story ---

For 10 to 20 years , PAP has been using township upgrading to hoodwink voters to vote for PAP .
This method worked good time for PAP while they import millions of foreigners without thinking of infrastructures.
Until WP voiced out the problems of sinkaporeans are facing and PE went under the hammer, PAP starts to wake up a bit and realize sinkapore has a big problem housing the 5-3 million.

Visibly, public transport like MRT is overcrowded, shopping belts and HDB town centers are too congested with cars, etc.
For PAP, the solution is to cause COE to rise and up the ERP fees, but the root problem cannot be solved by just doing the simple things. There are more to be done.
Look at all the HDB town centres, they are poorly planned, roads’ capacity is never sufficient.
In other words, the HDB carpark at town center has 100 car park space, 20 years later, with 30% of population growth, the car park space remains the same . So who is at fault ?

By hurting pockets to contain problems only cause problems to be compounded, and only the rich can afford to do things they like !
PAP has failed sinkapore big time.
Only recently when they failed to win PE, then they realize they must listen oredi !
So PAP in the panicky mode, rashly come out a 2030 to do damage control .
So what does this 2030 means ? Sinkaporeans are facing bad traffic jams everyday now, long queue of medical services, and many things, do sinkaporeans have to wait until 2030.

Worse , PAP instead of solving the current problems the 5.3 million people are facing , PAP paint a rosy picture 17 years from now.
In fact, people are saying the PIE should have 6 to 8 lanes on either side of the highway right now, so what you think ? PAP must be sleeping right !
When you talk about 2030, PAP need not address problems now ?

PAP is stuck in the m&d now. They have no idea to solve the current problems people are facing .
The 2030 carpet is just a damage control for the current problems, they hope the problems go away and wait for 2030 to come !
You guys remember there was a person who said sinkaporeans could go JB old folk home ?
suddenly we can house 6.9 million ?

so people are distracted by the 6.9 million, and they forget the painful traffic jams around sinkapore ?

so PAP keeps talking about the fairy-tale 2030, and they need not attend to problematic infrastructures people are facing now ?

The 6.9 with the 2030 carpet looks quite sure to backfire.

The above story is from the ground, we hope you enjoy the read !


What will be will be ! This is our opinion--- Sinkaporean voters should do themselves justice, PAP be best voted out GE2016.

God help Sinkapore !

They also made a big fuss about water shortage as if that is the life-threatening issue when they negotiate water agreement with Malaysia in the 80s. They made us feel so anxious about not having enough water and obediently paid the water levy. Now suddenly we will have enough water for 6.9 million people?

bro, don't forget about the "limited land" they kept telling Singaproeans for more than 2 generations
Now we know that there are more than 5 golf ranges with don't know how many hectares of land. and they now say they have enought land to build not only housing, but offices and parks so that parks are within a short walking distance of housing folk. (!!!)

Fantastic isn't it? They just burst their own "tales".

Play with Leegime's future. If we lose about 20K of them from Singapore, Singapore will excel beyond our wildest dreams. Make Singapore you dream. Chop off Leegime. It is just a nuisance.

Tan Cheng Bock: 6.9M projection is overwhelming…
February 3rd, 2013 | Author: Contributions

Dr Tan Cheng Bock

The White paper on population growth has caused great anxiety amongst Singaporeans. They are concerned that as Singaporeans will make up only 55% of the total population in 2030, what will the country become? Easily the balance can tip us to become minorities in our own country.

Singaporeans are currently trying to cope with the daily overcrowding of trains and buses, higher health costs, competitions for homes and jobs etc. The various measures just released before the by-election have yet to be felt. Thus this package of population change has caught them off guard. The back log of infrastructure should have been addressed and made right first. Such a move would have instilled confidence.

What is worrying is when PM admitted the govt did not have 20/20 foresight over the last influx of immigrants to explain the infrastructure lag. This have cast doubt on the previous planning.

I quote ST Sat Feb 2, page D5 (Jessica Cheam):

“In 2007 , when Singapore’s population was 4.6 m….URA revised its planning parameters …………based on – to 6.5m, up from a 2001 projection of 5.5m”

How then did our infrastructures of housing, transport i.e, road and rail, social and health amenities be so woefully short when 2001 forecast was already 5.5m?

This is worrying as the govt has total control over immigration?

PM has assured that this time round the planners will create a greater buffer in its planning. Be that as it may, the projection of 6.9m is overwhelming and should be thoroughly debated.

Most, if not all people, seek a comfortable space for their family. We do not want to risk driving away our own.
