It's not really scaremongering. It's to cover any tragedy in case things go sour.

It is crystal clear from all the gerrymandering and scare mongering that the Govt is afraid of losing more seats in Parliament. They want a clean sweep to ensure there continues to be little if any check and balance. They know that power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely, yet they want to be their own check and balance. What is the Govt afraid of? Are there more Iswarans hiding in the cupboard?

SINGAPORE: Singapore can no longer rely on a "working" global trading system to fit into, unlike in previous crises, and a recession, though unlikely, remains a possibility, Senior Minister Lee Hsien Loong said on Monday (Apr 14).

Addressing the impact of the United States' sweeping tariffs, Mr Lee said that uncertainty is high and over the next five to 10 years, Singapore faces "a less friendly world".

"I hope that Singaporeans understand what is happening, what is at stake, and what we must do together to secure our future," he said in a speech at the National Trades Union Congress (NTUC) Centre before a closed-door dialogue with close to 500 union leaders.

SINGAPORE: Amid the war in Ukraine and rising cost of living, Singaporeans must be prepared for more economic challenges, but the Government is “doing all it can to cushion the impact on Singaporeans and alleviate the cost-of-living pressures”, said Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong on Sunday (May 1).

Speaking at the May Day Rally, Mr Lee shared several measures that the Government rolled out during this year’s Budget.

“This year’s Budget ... (contained) many direct measures to help households. U-Save rebates, CDC vouchers, and S&CC rebates; these will reduce out-of-pocket living expenses for nearly all households. Lower- and middle-income households who need more help will get more,” he said.

“(The Monetary Authority of Singapore) has tightened our monetary policy to reduce imported inflation. That is why the Singapore dollar has appreciated.”

Singapore is also “taking steps to secure our food and energy supplies, just in case supplies are disrupted by the ongoing war”, added Mr Lee.

Despite the Government’s assistance, “inflation will remain high; central banks in the developed countries are tightening their monetary policies, raising interest rates; global growth will be weaker, and there may be a recession within the next two years”, he said.

Mr Lee added: “We have to face up to these realities. Singapore is tightly integrated into the global economy. Given our small size, we will always be a price taker in world markets. We have very little bargaining power. If the prices go up, our prices go up. If supplies are short, we are squeezed.

Another speech from our overrated and overhyped SM full of clichés, but offering no solutions. "Hope" is not a strategy!

I was raised in constant fear

 

[laksaboy]

I am eager to see the PAP manifesto this year. For the first time in a long time, Lee Hsien Loong's fuckface should no longer be on the cover page.

Here are the PAP manifestos from 2006 to 2020, and the Population White Paper.

PAP manifesto 2006, 2011, 2015, 2020, and the Population White Paper (two versions).

Gaslighting and broken promises galore.

Malay Mail
SINGAPORE, April 14 — Prime Minister Lawrence Wong has voiced support for young Singaporeans and first-time voters, acknowledging their aspirations and calling for their partnership in shaping the nation’s future.

In a social media video posted yesterday, Wong rejected criticisms labelling Gen Z as “soft” or “lacking resilience”, saying such views overlook their desire for change and progress.

“Your generation embodies a new desire to not settle for the status quo and with the way the world is moving. We hear you. I hear you,” he said.


So What’s next?
