Re: Ferrari driver's family says netizens have 'poisonous tongues' instead of apologi

In this case, the ferrari driver is in the wrong no matter which traffic rules, except maybe in china. The rich always right. Court should hammer them to show them this is not china.

in my experience,in singapore, the rich are also always right, especially if they pay for a lawyer

this will never happen.this country is so desperate for them to come that things are made SO easy for them. this country behaeves as if we need them more than they need us...we are all screwed.

I rather them than the shit skin. They are a neccessary evil to ensure the chinese population does not fall. Unless you don't mind a majority keling population and see everything in here become third world.

Don't Be Too Naive

ALL Tiongsters should not be allowed to convert their China driver's license to drive on Singapore roads.

It is time to adopt a zero tolerance policy.

You still don't get it.

Lee can heck care about licenses or what you think. He will continue to order his dogs, "Who's the emperor here ? Give it to them, now !"

60% will continue to fawn and 'sarpork' him disregarding how serious these situations may be. Why ? Some of these voters haven't got any brain at all. They worship him like Hitler or a god of all-knowing-and-all-powerful-and-holiness. They are still living in the 60s and 70s.

Only a few or affected few will want REAL changes. Remember, only the very few want a revolution.

No revolution means no change. Revolution is like an OT and scalpel. Most people fear this like death but yet death awaits them if they don't remove it. And like a frog being cooked alive slowly without it noticing the change in temperature in the pot.

The old folks can really heck care about the affected few. They have strange illusion that PAP is good and it will never change to something bad. Their itchy fingers will put a cross for PAP. The rest are banking on PAP. They don't care about whether your life is better, only his he cares about (Han traitors). Some young ones are brainwashed to think Sinkiesland was really a fishing village and some just love volunteerism to help PAP indirectly.

This is the fact that you have to understand. The reality doesn't look good. You have no choice. How long are you going to wait ?

Worse ! They laugh at you and tell you to get elected first then you can talk about your complaints. Even at this point, will they listen ?

Re: PRC new citizen blamed deceased taxi driver Cheng Teck Hock for causing fatal acc

holy fuck now not only is getting money an issue trying to be accepted amongst the old money crowd is a problem. Here's the thing. Not all nouveau riche are crude and seriously even if the old money does not accept them so fucking what? Seriously so what? Ppl with old money are simply ppl born into rich families that they didn't obtain but due to their birthright. Typical example would be a scion of some tycoon's family. His dad or grandfather established the business he didn't do anything just that he was lucky that he was born as the son or grandson of the tycoon. Of course his manners probably aren't going to be coarse since he didn't really have to hustle or fight hard to make the business succeed since it was already established. Contrast this to a person born in a poor family maybe the son of a fish monger for eg that became a hawker and grew rich from selling his food. Of course this person will have the coarse manners of someone from such a background but do you think he deserves less respect than someone born into a rich family? In this case i'm sure you think LHL is pretty high class. LHL's family has old money and LHL already had the sophistcation from what his dad had already accomplished.

It depends on perspective. From the perspective of the peasants, they obviously have more respect for the nouveau riche than old money since they seem to have made it the hard way.

But from the perspective of the old money crowd, nouveau riche are still 2nd class citizens. It takes time to earn their respect because not all nouveau riche people will be able to pass down their wealth for many generations. Most tend to squander their wealth on expensive toys and other expensive items trying to impress others.

Examples are NBA basketball players who came from peasant background earning multimillion dollar salaries and endorsements during their career. But once they have retired, most of them end up broke being chased by their creditors.

The old money will only be impressed if wealth has been passed down for many generations. It's more difficult for wealth to pass down from one generation to the next and still kept intact than for a 1st generation nouveau riche to make his new fortune. Why? Because wealth gets diluted as it passes down from one generation to the next. Also, wealth is constantly under attack from many different angles; i.e. bad business decisions, con artists, friends and relatives borrowing money that never get repaid, divorce settlements, investment losses, frivolous lawsuits, cash flow problem, gambling, and the unrestrained urge to spend on expensive things trying to impress others.

That is why nouveau riche people who drive loud Ferraris and Lambos on the road by revving up the engines have no class and no breeding in the eyes of the old money. Don't ask me why? That's just the way the old money crowd view the nouveau riche.

Re: PRC new citizen blamed deceased taxi driver Cheng Teck Hock for causing fatal acc

I sincerely hope that one day an Ah Tiong FT driver will ram to death a car driven by the children or wives of the MIWs..Better still if they ram the cars of these Pappy Scum Ministers..

If this happens, the ah tiong will be hung out to dry, u can be sure of that.
It will be more interesting if the reverse happens.
Then we can see whether the justice system really works or not.
As for the dead ah tiongs, perhaps this accident may even prevent future deaths.

Holy jeesus thanks for the long winded write up on something so simple. FYI even old money gets squandered too. Also nice generalization you have there. There are children from rich families that do fuck all but spend money and so on.

Anyway bill gates is nouveau riche he isn't old money since he made the money himself not inherit it. Also some ppl with old money might be rich only in appearance and not actually have money, typical example would be aristocratic families. There are such families that might have fancy titles but actually little bit of money.

Re: PRC new citizen blamed deceased taxi driver Cheng Teck Hock for causing fatal acc

I agree w u....generate more income for driving schools

ALL Tiongsters should not be allowed to convert their China driver's license to drive on Singapore roads.

I don't care if they're bus drivers, delivery lorry drivers or rich man with fancy cars.

They must go through the FULL course at a driving school, pass all the practical and theory tests.
There are lessons conducted in Chinese, so the 'language barrier' is not a valid excuse.

And when they have obtained their Singapore driver's license, it is probational and subject to renewal every year.
They must also pay a higher amount of money for car insurance and road tax.

It is time to adopt a zero tolerance policy.
