SG Talk

Our small nation made it here is a source of pride  and jubilation .

The Singaporean spirit to strive and survive challeges of all kinds live on. 

We must aim for excellence and there is no room for complacency. As a nation, the purpose of existence as a independent united people is the ability to deliver the best life for the people who form the nation and society. Singaporeans  trace their ancestral roots to all corners of the global and have chosen to stay and contribute to the nation to create a  collective future that is  bright for all who have chosen to stay. 

60yrs for a nation is not long. We are still young. History has shown that small nation states come and go. 100yrs from now it is not a given we will still exists. How long we  persist is a function of how well we navigate the challenges ahead. Old.formulas rarely work forever and.small nations have to constantly reinvent themselves to stay relevant to deliver positive outcomes for its people. 

In recent yrs we saw emerging challenges of high income gap, rising poverty, economic inequity, job insecruity, rising cost of livjng and extremely low birth rates. The first step in overcoming a.challenge to our survival is to recognise it and take bold steps. Success cannot be taken for granted. 

Today we celebrate. Tomorrow we continue to strive. We have to keep this mother ship going forwards in a sea full rough waves and rocks.

Sang Nila Utama named this island Singapura around the year 1299... Technically, Singapore should be 726 years old lah...

even up to sg100, these problems will not be resolved but will get worse.

because these problems are created by PAP.
the methods used by PAP to create growth, will create these problems.
these problems will become worse over time when PAP uses the same methods to create growth
if PAP resolves these problems, there will be no growth for PAP.

一甲子到了……洗牌

一甲子是60 年。这是因为“甲子”是天干地支纪年法中的一个循环周期，由十个天干和十二个地支组合而成，一个循环是60 年。
解释:
天干地支:天干有十个：甲、乙、丙、丁、戊、己、庚、辛、壬、癸。地支有十二个：子、丑、寅、卯、辰、巳、午、未、申、酉、戌、亥。
循环:天干和地支依次配对，形成一个循环。例如：甲子、乙丑、丙寅... 癸亥。这个循环就是一甲子，也就是60 年.

Think you need refresher course bro

Those are because no monies. If you rich enough in money, no-one can touch u. This planet is only about money, all monies are disguised behind power and vice versa.

Stopped looking for job since driving, I think when one is close to 50 not many would give a chance at a decent job lah.
