    Do you think north koreans who want change can fight from within?

    So to all those idealist, join PAP, join grassroots, work from within. Climb up the ranks. Become MP, then cabinet minister, then finally PM.
    If you still have the ideals when you reached the post of PM, then do whatever you like to open up Singapore.
    No point fighting from outside, fight from within.

    Devilplate is mentioning that those who r struggling will tend to vote for opposition. It doesn't necesarrily mean that those who vote for opposition are struggling.
    If a non-native English speaker can understand this logic, I am baffled why you can't understand this logic. No wonder Chinese students are outperforming native Singaporeans

    one is micro the other is macro....it like LPPL...language game will only with some people...

    If u r smart, u only have one choice and one right choice. The power has to be there to reverse it. 50 50 weight won't work. Opp un proven, could be worst nightmare. Where the cure is worst than the pain. The medicine worst than the cure.

    This world is so unfair!!!

    Not true. The well-heeled and educated ones as well - they're looking for new ideas and diversity.

    By the time you wait until you are struggling or dying than vote in new government, it will be too late.


    Australians vote out John Howard after 11 years as PM and despite record economic growth is because he was PM for too long.

    The other parties cup is empty and no track record as government so there is a chance it will do well.

    Compare to now which we all know the verdict and sealed, nothing will improve.

    Gorbachev has proven that it can be done. However as often as is the case, people lose their ideals when they got into power. They become what they opposed.

    If there's direct measures @HDB, then it will dampen the spirits and sentiments of the general population. Personally, i don 't think they want to do that & annoy the HDB heartlanders..., as long small and steady increase, it will be OK, this is what MM said and tell all to hang on to your HDB flats, it will be a appreciating asset - but slow and steady (probably they just want increase to be more than inflation - good enough).

    Actually if MBT is forced out, would it change anything? Probably he would be a civil servant, the brain behind the operation. The next housing minister would just be the public face and take instructions from MBT.

    what trade are you talking about? We are not trading properties. We are property investors. Because if we are trading properties, we would be taxed on our trading profits :P

    BTW, how do you hammer housing salesman?

    What brain are you talking about. MBT has no brains. If you look at his cv u will realize the only reason he got the job is cuz he is lky crony. His past work experience and education is pathetic
