Stop Blaming Us • Start Owning Up​

CH’NG Poh Tiong 22 hours ago GrapeVine 2 Comments 14,798 Views

WELCOME TO EDITION 817 of GRAPEVINE​

Not owning up to our mistake is irresponsible. To apologise is to display honesty and show accountability. To apologise and resign is to reveal unusual but exemplary honour. To divert blame or find a scapegoat is to sink into a subterranean abyss. The world’s most expensive, highest-paid professional politicians. Clockwise from top left: CHAN Chun Sing, ONG Ye Kung, Lawrence Wong, and Desmond Lee
Will Singapore’s new 4-G leadership stop invoking the bogeyman of “Singapore needs foreign workers” to excuse their appalling decision to allow visitors from India into Singapore?
Stop blaming us. Start owning up.
Singaporeans are fully aware we need foreign workers just as we know a baby needs milk powder (or to be breast-fed).
Would you then be as reckless to import milk powder from China?
There is an opportunity cost in every decision one makes in life.
The question is whether the trade-off is worth the risk.
The whole world knew of the deadly danger of the Indian variant.
That it is ultra infectious, killed, and continues to kill more people in India than anywhere else on planet earth.
Yet, you made that costly decision against the lives of everyone – including children, front-line health workers, and immigration and police officers – living and working in Singapore.
You also risked the Singapore economy returning to health.
Because of your mind-boggling judgement, we are now back in lockdown; the Singapore Hong Kong Travel Bubble burst a second time; the Shangri-La Dialogue called off; and, the much anticipated World Economic Forum cancelled a second time by its founder.
I think you owe the country and everyone living here an explanation.
No more red-herring “Singapore needs foreign workers” please.
Will the most expensive, highest-paid politicians in the world care to enlighten how your superior intellect came to make that decision – risking everything for India – to:

• Thousands of Singapore and other schoolchildren residing here who were looking forward – finally after 16 months – to their first holiday in Hong Kong
• Thousands of their parents and family members who were going to accompany them on this second botched promise
• Thousands of Singapore Airlines ground staff, stewardesses, stewards, and pilots who got vaccinated and were looking forward to returning to work and payday after the national carrier lost a staggering S$4.3 billion for the financial year ended 31 March 2021
• Thousands of washers, cleaners, technicians, food preparers, chefs, and office staff at SATS who prepare food for Singapore Airlines to earn a livelihood
• Thousands of Grab, Gojek, and taxi drivers who were going to ferry them to the airport in order to support their families
• Thousands of security guards, doormen, concierge, front-desk, room-service, waiters, waitresses, captains, sommeliers, managers, and other food & beverage and hospitality workers and professionals waiting to welcome tourists from Hong Kong with open arms (but with their masks on)
• Thousands of Grab, Gojek, and taxi drivers who were going to ferry Hong Kong tourists from the airport to their accommodation, and all over Singapore during their holiday here
• Thousands of aunties and uncles at hawker centres and food courts waiting to welcome the thousands of Hong Kong tourists because they love Singapore’s famous hawker fare and we love them for loving it

I apologise if I missed you out in the above categories.
Wishing you A Good Weekend.

   Absolutely spot on Poh Tiong, thanks for this! I was delighted to read your incisive comments after also reading Leslie Fong’s polite observations on the Opinion page in ST yesterday. We need more people like you willing to speak up on behalf of the many unhappy but silent Singaporeans.
   To repeatedly use the excuse “Singapore needs foreign workers” is an insult to our intelligence. And to present statistics out of context is unforgivable!

   Finally, someone with the balls to say what people are repeating in their hearts!
   When was the last time a Singapore minister apologize or resign for his screw-ups? Not when Mas Selamat escaped, not when the youth Olympics went over budget, not when NOL sank…

Why this motherfucker didn't join politic to defeat PAP in the last GE?

He has more dirts under his carpet and exposed his shits.

At least these PAP ministers are doing their best during this患乱时间 and forgo their private life to serve the people of Singapore.

Watch out for many no NSF jiuhu kias trying to destroy Singapore....

 

[bobby]

Why the CAQ Pinky never come out and assure the public of what's going on and how they going to tackle this grave issue looming over the horizon ?

 

[tanwahtiu]

Ask his sex partner Hohoho....

She rules behind the curtains.... He is just merely taking instructions... his portfolio is he is just an instrument to take orders...

Why the CAQ Pinky never come out and assure the public of what's going on and how they going to tackle this grave issue looming over the horizon ?

We are on auto-pilot. The captain is drunk.

 

[Leongsam]

The Indian variant is no worse than any other variant. The stats say so.

 

[theblackhole]

many sinkies now have balls of iron
some have balls of fire
some have balls of tofu
some have balls of rojak
some have balls of south asians
some have no balls at all
some have balls placed in their eyes
knnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

Dear fellow Sinkies,

Stop wasting your energy on those 4G clowns... it's a huge distraction.

Focus on this imbecile instead:

Or do you think he's actually a good PM, merely let down by incompetent subordinates? Giving him face because of his daddy?

 

[syed putra]

Stop blaming indians for the spread of the chinese virus and local chinese inability to get jobs. If cannot compete, go work elsewhere.

Better not, 61% will get a hard on, hearing his, 'My Fello Sporean'.

Aiyo 4G so lousy I besiege prime mister Loooong to stay on for a few more terms like his father.

 

[laksaboy]

Better not, 61% will get a hard on, hearing his, 'My Fello Sporean'.

Even better if he fully embraces his Pinky persona and wears a pink shirt. It's endearing to them.

 

[winners]

I take umbrage at his comments. Doesn't he knows that being a Ministar is already so much pressure, much more a 4G type?

 

[Cottonmouth]

Fuck India and fuck indians.
Shit people, fucking shitskins.

 

[theblackhole]

Fuck India and fuck indians.
Shit people, fucking shitskins.

bro you damned hot leh
i think maybe jade will cool you down
your balls are on fire

 

[tanwahtiu]

A cheat teaching us how to cheats.

If Chinese go elsewhere to work cheats will follow.

So how to stop cheats. Start from motherfucker u...

Stop blaming indians for the spread of the chinese virus and local chinese inability to get jobs. If cannot compete, go work elsewhere.

 

[eatshitndie]
