Unethical electioneering practices must stop.....

[Confuseous]

Facilities and upgrading may be lacking in Hougang - there are no artificial rivers, no blue dolphin fountains, no rose gardens and no spanking new playgrounds....but what the Hougang people have money cannot buy. They have our respect. It is this Hougang spirit that permeates to all corners of Singapore that will ensure our survival.

One of the most damaging thing the PAP did to democracy and to the country is to link votes to estate upgrading. It encourages every voter to think of himself first above the interest of his fellow Singaporeans and the interest of the country. During every election, the PAP will dangle multi-million dollar carrots to secure votes. These carrots encourages voters to support the PAP even though they are against PAP policies that are harmful for the country and Singaporeans. Over time, instead of formulating good policies that have good support from Singaporeans, the PAP has become dependent on this method of getting votes. In the last election, they promised rivers (Bishan river). MRT stations, parks, and all sorts of grand facilities. The more Singaporeans show that their votes can be bought, the less the PAP need to do to ensure their policies benefit ordinary Singaporeans. They will respect you less if you allow your vote to be bought.

Bro, I have given up on the 60.1% long ago. This group is the 不見棺材不流眼淚 type.
