probability of s'pore declining

[LordKrishna]

seriously, the odds of s'pore achieving success again is stacking against us.

Namaste, believe you me, India holds more promises thank Singapore.

You guys are over rating Old Harry and giving him credit for developments that was a consequence of modern regional events/history. Singapore already possessed the momentum of growth from earlier British trade, and also happened to be the centre of regional prosperity, peace, and industrial growth. Being on the side of the Western democracies further helped boost Singapore;s advantage. Now, with the passing years, and the other gobal events catching up, Singapore has lost a lot of ground from its early headstart, and without a large population, natural resources, and land, Singapore is slowly losing out in terms of future prospects. No point looking for another LKY, because it wasn't because of him that Singapore got where it is, he just took credit for it, it could have been anyone else savvy enough to stay at the top of the political circle here. As for the Pinoys, and Kelings giving shit to Singapore, it is just a return of the treatment given to some of them who were here earlier and were treated as low-lives. Not everybody loves Singapore and her people.

Cheers!

I 1200 percent agree!

Is that why India is sending hundreds of thousands and possibly a million of its people to work in sinkapore?

We are simply giving credit where credit is due. Ah Gong was a hero. Period.

Only when people don't think, they will come to this conclusion.

Back in the 1960s, when many countries gained independence from their colonial masters, they also had the momentum of growth and lots of exciting chance for economic progress. Just think of Cambodia, Vietnam, Philippines, Sri Lanka, and many other African countries. Instead, they got themselves into civil war after civil war, corruption and all sorts of ethnic strife.

Ah Gong did what he did to ensure that Singapore stayed on the course to prosperity, instead of getting mired into deep levels of corruption or civil war that plagued most African and other third world asiatic countries.

Your CON man used brutality to command and control. He destroyed all potential competitors and instill a fear in the population. And sinkees were to chicken to fight back then and now.
The biggest concern lately for the security forces is a local revolt; so much planning is put into handling this scenario. You know that the PAP is scared, very scared.

the best time frame for s'pore was when lky and lao goh was prime minister, businesses were growing and country was prospering. but as usual only their cronies stood to gain the most. if you dun believe, try to buy an apartment now and see if the price will double 10 years down the road.

Namaste.

Sending our talents out is part of India's contribution to the betterment of the world. We sacrificed at the expense of our own development. Namaste.

1 million shitskins in sg,and sinkies cant even get a fucking work holiday visa to australia.

Namaste.

Having so many Indian talents here have benefited Singapore more than India. While Singapore progresses, India continues to languish and suffer from very high rates of child malnutrition. Things could be different in India if these hundreds of thousands of talented Ah Nehs remained back home to help develop their own country for a smaller wage.

Sinkies will always be grateful for the sacrifices India has made for us.

Have to disagree with you. Having too many foreign Indians are causing social problems in Spore. There are also many Malaysians, Indonesians, PRC, ...... that could easily have made up their numbers.

Don't forget that some of these foreign Indians have used faked degrees to get their jobs. Even if they got genuine Indian qualifications I have my doubts to the quality?

LKY and the Old Guards had done well and made local sinkies proud of the island nation ... from a Brit trading outpost to a successful metropolis.

The current pappies are doing it all wrong and for all the wrong reasons and perceptions. Where in the world are foreigners treasured like gems and given the right to buy and own Govt flats?

In the long term sinkie land will just disintegrate into a nation of foreigners and locals existing side by side to keep their own rice bowls but beyond that, in time of crisis, it will be ownself check ownself...and what Mr Peanut had said will come true ...

Not all foreigners are bad people although there are scums, shits and low life among them like John Duncan Tasker, Graham Lind, and those who whacked taxi drivers, motorists and other road users. Some of them, a small minority, are decent law abiding people choosing to make their homes in sinkie land.

To all these foreign scums, the pappies have not openly warned them to behave or fuck off. They prefer to polish the balls of these foreigners to keep them running wild in the island.

You hallucinating again, lah. India has got caste system. Ah nehs will bring their caste system with them to wherever they go. India has not succeeded to keep all their ah nehs together as one people after decades of independence. Can pappies get all these foreign imported foreigners to live and exist as one people? Fat hope and dreamers.

We need someone like Donald Trump to make Singapore great again.
