Opposition did propose some solutions to the govt but all got eliminated. We got a govt who didn't listen to our proposals but now turned around to say that we shouldn't rely on them.

. everything comes so bloody late

You cannot solve the problems you created?
We must have more oppositions in parliament as they are very capable of good solutions. PAP are all yesman and produce solutions that are group-think and sometime lean towards own self-interest or face saving. Very disappointing especially for transport.
never once did lky nor gct mentioned that yet their salary is much lower!!
Cut ur ministers salary 90% then we can talk about this. Ok?
the government which created troubles issues problems to most if not all citizens and now simply want citizens to avoid bothering the worlds highest paid yet incompetent government
as good as
the ringmaster who hand-picked the clowns to work under him
and all the clowns behave just like the ringmaster
now the ringmaster wanna blame the audiences for not appreciating the poor performance of his clowns under the leadership of the incompetent ringmaster who without fail will use papa as the protection charm again and again and again and again
what a circus....
i never believe in karma
unless karma shows the way to these men in white one by one
fuckedup nation running by fuckedup people

Singapore must try very hard to avoid having the Government be the sole solution to all problems.
Pm lee is living in his ivory tower, I think government bodies are very poor
Professor Kishore Mahbubani believed that Qatar’s fundamental error was to have acted without considering its power position as a “small state”. He saw its regional difficulties as a product of its hubris and, turning to Singapore, had the following advice for small states:
What’s the first thing we should do? Exercise discretion. We should be very restrained in commenting on matters involving great powers.
Hence, it would have been wiser to be more circumspect on the judgment of an international tribunal on the arbitration which the Philippines instituted against China concerning the South China Sea dispute, especially since the Philippines, which was involved in the case, did not want to press it.
When I hear some of our official representatives say that we should take a “consistent and principled” stand on geopolitical issues, I am tempted to remind them that consistency and principle are important, but cannot be the only traits that define our diplomacy. And there is a season for everything. The best time to speak up for our principles is not necessarily in the heat of a row between bigger powers."

Singapore must never be seen to be "playing multiple sides", Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong
"We must have a stand, our own position, and we stick to that position whomever we are talking to, whichever country or capital you are in," he said.
"When you make a speech, the gist of the message has to be the same. That's what I try to do, and that's what I tell the leaders I'm speaking to whether I'm in Washington, Hangzhou, Tokyo, Europe or Moscow. My essential message is the same."
Note
Rightly or wrongly, Singapore cannot accept alternative views. Then, solely bears the burnt.
.
So, only you can stand
Other people cannot stand.

PM Lee is so different from his late father, LKY who told Singaporeans to leave everything to the Govt.

There are many daft S'poreans who respond gleefully whenever the COE premiums rise; even going to the extent of wishing for them to hit $200K. Imagine what happens when business costs go up? Prices will keep rising for consumers regardless of whether they own a car or not.
That's why we must vote them out.
Singaporeans have to avoid voting for. govt is sole cause for most of their problems

That is people did he should step down ten years ago. Even voting for a puppet Lawrence under his rein is unwise.
Why should PM care what Micklethwait said,
if he has no heart or no solution left for Sporean,
then step down earlier to be senior minister.
Almost all countries facing election will give some packages.
No need to explain.
No humans in the universe will ever think he is god to solve everything. Secondly, Singapore is not Singaporeans where his English is a great diservice to him. Lastly, if this Govt allows UK, China or Australia to govern, we are happy to approach them instead. In all, terminate your incompetent Ministers and Mayors.

Our politicians tell Sinkies to be prepared for foreign competition for our jobs, but they aren't willing to face the same threat to their livelihood.
The prices of hdb flats are crazily high that bites into the costs of living, especially those who are planning to hv a family. Housing is a necessity with a roof over head. And yet, these PApAya claimed it is affordable. This is totally outrageous and uncalled for. Simply pushing problems into our shoulders when they are the creator of all these issues.
