Confuseous

10. President Tony Tan: We should continue to have vigorous debates, but cannot allow differences to pull us apart. All sides must take a long-term perspective for the common good. And once the debate is settled, we must come together again, to move ahead as one united people.

How you feel: “That means we must not disagree because we must not disrupt the status quo? Okay, got it.”

But Hri Kumar once criticised the opposition by saying that politicians should take a stand. He said: “Singaporeans are best served by politicians who make a stand, not those who sit on fences.”.

11. President Tony Tan: As Dr Tan lists major shifts the Govt has made in labour, housing, parenthood and immigration policies, he notes that amid these changes, some things remain constant: Singapore is a small country.

Ukraine and recent regional tensions remind us not to take safety and security for granted, Dr Tan says. We need effective diplomacy, as well as a strong SAF and Home Team. Our NSmen have the spirit and resolve to defend our nation, and deserve our support and recognition.

How you feel: “Okay, I understand. So this is supposed to explain why permanent residents in Singapore do not need to do NS?”

Divisive politics is not necessarily a bad thing, but the pappies always portray it to be so.

Nobody should show support and unity for idiocy in governance. Wisdom and discernment are far better than sticking with some social compact held by thinly veiled threats.

Bestest is to do it from the safety and comfort of an air-conditioned laboratory. :wink:

I have neither the spirit nor resolve to defend this hotel, and I don't want your support or recognition. Take your vouchers and SAFRA memberships and shove them up yours where the sun doesn't shine.
