Housing price often collapse after a  bubble when prices rise too quickly vs income growth.

Whoever elected has to address these issues that has the highest impact on Singaporeans' lives.

Let's look objectively at each and what has happened to them in the last 10years.

The cost of living has risen non stop for the whole of decade. You cannot just blame on external environment because the cost of living here is so high Singapore is now one of the most expensive city in the world. 


With highest income gap among developed countries, there are many Singaporeans negatively affected by it

If you objectively assess whether the PAP has and will address this issue, the answer is NO.

Their approach is to grow the economy and deal with whatever problems come with it.



Because of the wealth and income gap, the benefits of artificially stimulating ieconomic  growth goes to those already wealth and the majority have to cope with the negative effects. For example baby boomers going into retirement are unable to improve their income but have to cope with higher cost of living hence unable to retire. Young couples who want to start a family are unable to do so due to high cost of housing and child care.

The PAP has  only one main strategy to create economic growth and that is importing people.

Despite decline in birth rate, our population increase rapidly to 6 million because of imported labor.

While the PAP claimed that there are sufficient jobs for Singaporeans, competition for jobs has increased as foreigners and foreign residents vie for the same jobs.


Poor security compounds the problem of high living costs


If you stand back and make an assessment, you can see a large number who don't benefit from the policy approach taken by the PAP govt. This number may be around half or more than half the populace due to the high inequality in the society.

If you see the vote share of the PAP going down, it's not because people are anti PAP and do not appreciate hiw good  a govt we have. It is because their approach and policies do not benefit a large part of the society and people vote accordingly.

I have already said for so many times.

They did not do the ground survey collection by themselves. So they think by giving CDC vouchers, ppl will be happy . Actually giving CDC vouchers will make prices increase further.
Giving cash will make ppl like Ah butt to spend the cash in JB.
