In general, the SG Values he embodies in his daily life
Why do we need 5 Mayors and 80 PAP Ministers?

The sore thumb is you and those of your generation which will vanish when all of you are dead.
Do not assume that Singapore had never changed and that your generation represents Singapore and its culture.

Old folks like you and Jac do not have the ability nor ever wanted to integrate into Singapore. No point trying to give lame excuses when you need 100 years to integrate with us.
Your self- worth is built on jealousy you have on citizens who are born here and clearly shows your own Inferiority Complex. If you and Jac cannot adapt, why even talk about Singapore changing?
(20-05-2023, 09:30 PM)Oyk Wrote: Unlike countries with huge populations and therefore a critical mass, Singapore changes very fast, even before a generation has come and gone. This is because we are a continuing migrant population and each wave of new citizens bring change inevitably to it.
We used to have a majority of the pioneer generation and their Merdeka Generation chewren. Five six seven chewren for every family with 2 parents, the statistics is easy to work out. The average age was young. Now the term BBFA is in vogue. Two aging Merdeka with no child or just one. Again the statistics - 2 old 1 young = Old.
You cannot stop the immigration and with immigration comes various cultures and change.
Deal with it.
You don't ask someone from Myanmar, India, Phillipines, Vietnam or China to integrate which is defined by you as behaving like your grandpa.
It will not happen. Deal with that also.

No point being childish like old Fart King in your reply when you talk like a Foreigner
PAP already spent $10 Million on Integration and hired so many PAP in that Integration Committee but failed
Because too many Foreigners with FAT EGO refuse to integrate like useless Jac Lau
PAP definitely started on the wrong foot 30 years ago
and the elderly Foreigners are not willing to adapt now
OLD DOGS like Jac CANNOT learn new tricks
Jac himself knew the law but broke the law as Foreign TRASH

If a non sinkie land born male completed NS, then he should be treated like a sinkie, because he is willing to waste his 10+2 years on this land.

1. The 7th month is for hungry ghosts to come to this world and not for good people like me to come to this world where I already am, or go to that world because a good man like me is destined for a place north of Earth.
2. Every year around this time I look forward to eating mooncakes. I don't know why for you this time of the year is hungry ghosts month which is very negative.

Yours is a legalistic definition of a sinkie: Willing to do NS and the reservist cycles. And for you, that's a sinkie.
A new citizen might be willing to do that but that does not make him the Singaporean that Ola is talking about. Moreover tens of thousands of foreign women had become new citizens and were exempted from doing NS. What say you?
Ola misses the Kallang Roar days, the era when we all studied Mandarin in school as a second language but spoke to one another in other dialects and English. There was a certain camaraderie which defined us. It's very difficult to put this in words but all boomers know what that Singapore was like. New citizens will NEVER understand or ever know. Or give a damn.
I had argued that in fact even our own local born yoomers and zoomers don't identify with that era. Rather they are more similar to PRs and new citizens with whom they either studied together and spent their formative years, or work together and eat lunch with.....
.....than with us, the older generation whom they'd probably consider to be stubborn, backward and uncivilized, talking in loud voices, playing Teresa Teng's songs 小城故事啊! 甜蜜蜜啊! aloud on their mobile phones on buses.
Singapore changed very fast but that's because of technology in the last 30 to 40 years and our low TFR.

As for "Moreover tens of thousands of foreign women had become new citizens and were exempted from doing NS. What say you?", if sinkie women is not doing ns, on what basis are you asking this group to serve NS?
As for the identity issue, yes that is a prob. If your country make u feel like it is no longer yr country, that is it the young local sinkie prob or someone else prob?
It took a generation of education to teach our young to love their country, it took a few years of wrong policies to destroy that.
