Re: Registers open for checks.Is your vote secret? Why is there a serial number assig
Many years ago, at least more than a decade ago, I used to think that the serial numbers were traceable.
I did thought about the serial numbers;
What I read from the ST long time ago was for accountability.
However, you don't need a genius to know that serial numbers could be linked with your NRIC number, your name etc... with Excel Worksheet so efficient now adays, it'll be a matter of seconds to know.
I used to be fearful. Thoughts running through my head "What if I were caught voting for the opposition", would I be denied of my rights as a citizen? lose previlidges like IUP, lose the GST rebates?, lose the HDB grants for first time buyers?, etc... in short punished by PAP for not voting for them?
However, many years have passed, my GRC had many walk overs, I don't even have any chance to vote...
As it was at least 1 decade already, I were amongst those that felt the repercussions of the 1997 Asian Financial Crisis...
And through this decade of changes, more and more injustices...
Started with the Swissification, now actually Russification of Singapore.
Started with affordable HDB, now actually HDB disguised as private properties, and selling at private properties pricing...
Started with comfortable public transport systems, where there were still young singaporeans giving out their seats to the elderly, now actually, too crowded with FTs everywhere, don't even bother anymore.
Started with the intention of ERP for traffic control, now actually a means for additional revenue for the coffers.
Started with the intention of COE for limitation of cars in SGP, now also an additional revenue for the coffers.
Started National Service in the name of National Security, now the NS people are protecting 33% of the interest of non Singaporeans... perhaps the ratio will change further...
Started with LKY urging for the public to accept that its essential for the ministers to have higher pays, in compensation of their economic loss, while in private sectors as CEOs, now Ministers in Singapore are making more than CEOs in private sectors --> its really interesting that Obama makes less than LHL!
Singaporeans are living in modern serfdom, everyone trapped with debts ranging from 1 to 3 decades, or even more..., while some elites live like princes, or princess, as they may never understand the feeling of poverty, simply because these elites never bother to understand what is truly happening in Singapore.
We really need a stronger opposition to provide an alternative view.
Its good to have an alternative view point, as some actions may not truly serve the best interest of the nation, and it takes guts to present in the parliament.
If we have a 3:1 ratio of Opposition Politician, against PAP Politician, then we may have a hope of an alternative view...
My decision is set.
