PAP continues to insult our intelligence

[winnipegjets]

TCH says "It is the ability to meet the needs of Singaporeans and provide a good quality of life that is the driver, not the numbers per se. If we are able to achieve this with a smaller population, whether 6.5m or perhaps even lower, there is no reason to go higher," Mr Teo said.

However, the population projection of 6.5 to 6.9 million people here by 2030 is needed so that the Government can make long term plans to cater even to the high end of possible populations, he added.

I am still waiting for my Swiss quality of life promised decades ago. The PM who made that promise is still in cabinet.

Teo says we need 3 million construction workers, cleaners, nurses to serve sinkees. Without them, our quality of life will go down. What utter rubbish!

Why does the PAP think sinkees are stupid? We can see through the ridiculous logic put forth.

backtracking bastards...they deserve HELL

Already proven beyond doubt by now that higher population does not provide higher quality of life for Singaporeans, the white paper should go for lower but high quality population instead of higher but low quality population, which is what has happened in the last few years.

Only enlightened ones like us can call their bluff. But there's still the 60% who won't want to face up to the truth.

 

[red amoeba]

the white paper is literally like its name, your face turns white after reading it.
knowing PAP always plan higher / more not less, one can be sure we are not looking at 6.9 but closer to 7.5.

how to house, feed and entertain them is a issue. are they going to expand geylang into hougang?

I suspect that it is 50 percent of less now. Hopefully come 2016, it will be 30 percent.

SBF needs to become the MUST READ forum for all sinkees.

bro,
this forum or the Asian values forum?

 

[watchman8]

The insult is well deserved and entirely appropriate. Who did you vote for?

 

[moolightaffairs]

now all the news and media keep down play the issue. keep saying 6.9 mil is not a population target but a standard of readiness for infrastructure. worst case scenario blah blah blah. with some reminders that if we never reach that population, we cannot achieve high standard of living and more opportunities. KNNCCB!!! VOTE THEM OUT!!!

The PAP will never want to have half-filled MRT trains operating. Neither would they tolerate half-filled schools or hospitals or roads and empty HDB blocks. If they build for 6.9 million and don't achieve that target, how are they going to keep those infrastructure running?

That's why we know their claim is pure bs.

Singapore has already surpassed the Swiss quality of life.

 

[Sinkie]

Singapore has already surpassed the Swiss quality of life.

This means winnipegjets had been left behind.

That's his fault not the PAP's fault.

Haven't you seen how many maids TCB has? He even has one to dig his nose

backtracking?

bro we have just wised them up about the public discontent,ent and outrage of their fucked up plans,...it just simply means they have to go undergroundwith this dirty tick to import more new voters for the perpetuation of their regime.....trust me, there willbe no turn!!

everything about increasing the population artificiallynwill now be kept as secret and they will still proceed albeit surreptitiously...mark my words!! The bastards do not fear the people of Singapore......

We only have to look to both China and India, two of the world's most populous nations. How long do you think it will take them to achieve the Swiss standard of living?

I like that statement of yours. It's classic

knowing PAP always plan higher / more not less, one can be sure we are not looking at 6.9 but closer to 7.5.

My guess is 8 million.

 

[kopiuncle]

the target is 6.9
no it's the worst scenario
then what is the real target
old uncle also blur
now about 5 millions
but you look around
it think it's already 6 million
one foreign worker + spouse + parents + in laws = more than the postulated numbers
plus tourists + plus passers by +++++++
you have packed house bursting at its seams
i don't think we can sustain such massive numbers
everything will fall apart one by one - sooner than we expect
even today many singaporeans have gone awol or locked themselves in imh caves
just too crowded and congested to go anywhere
the queues for bak kwa alone discourage old uncle
the queues for new notes seem never end
i prefer to stay at home in my lousy tent
