Singapore Primary 3 Social Studies Textbook: Singapore has no homeless people; Korea has.

Mud Doll
泥娃娃
泥娃娃，泥娃娃，一個泥娃娃
也有那眉毛，也有那眼睛，眼睛不會眨
泥娃娃，泥娃娃，一個泥娃娃
也有那鼻子，也有那嘴巴，嘴巴不說話

她是個假娃娃，不是個真娃娃
她沒有親愛的媽媽，也沒有爸爸
泥娃娃，泥娃娃，一個泥娃娃
我做她爸爸，我做她媽媽，永遠愛著她

此录像乃国民教育，是本人特为有意移民或刚移民到新加坡的前中国人制作的。目前，每年有数万新加坡人移民海外。他们身在曹营心在汉，与新加坡政府的关系有如罢工工友与无良­老板之间的拉锯战，试图以移民（罢工）为筹码，来与政府谈判政治空间（工作条件）。诸位中国人本可置身事外，隔山观虎斗。却偏要插一手，来当新移民（老板请来替代罢工工友­的新员工）。请问那些罢工工友们能不生气吗？既然如此，在被本土新加坡人辱骂排挤时，就怨不得人了。你们不是遭池鱼之殃。你们是刻意选择加入战局，欣然接受新加坡政府策划­的"大输血"行动，来取代其"叛乱"的子民。显而易见的，这是场政治战。你们不是旁观者。你们不仅老远地跑来参与，且已公然表明支持其中一方（不支持，又怎会放弃中国公民­身份，来成为新加坡的新移民？）只不过，你们在助纣为虐前，还是先来点公民教育吧，免得被本土新加坡人排挤时，还莫名其妙！呵呵！

This is an educational orientation video, aimed at introducing Singapore to new foreign students studying in Singapore and pupils holding Singapore permanent resident (SPR) cards in primary schools, secondary schools (including the Independent Schools (IS) and those in the Integrated Programme (IP)), junior colleges (JC) and the polytechnics. It is especially recommended for viewing after the Primary School Leaving Examination (PSLE), or the two Semestral Assessments (SA1 and SA2), or the two Continual Assessments (CA1 and CA2), where there are ample time for some Civics and Moral Education (CME). The importance of National Education (NE) cannot be overemphasized, as the Ministry of Education (MOE) has emphasized many times. Students of the National University of Singapore (NUS), Nanyang Technological University (NTU) and Singapore Management University (SMU) should also view this video, especially if they are under various MOE or Public Service Comission (PSC) scholarships or the edusave scheme.

Foreign Talents (FT) and other not-so-talented foreigners working at Fusionpolis, Biopolis and the other "polis" of various A*STAR organisations may be interested to infuse themselves with some knowledge of Singapore too.

Majulah Singapura!
Let us all shine for Singapore!
May Singapore always be 晴空万里！

Singapore has no homeless people if you live on Oxley Road and are have 300 gurkhas blocking your view.

LKY's powderful helicopter vision cannot see HDB void decks, under bridges, East Coast park toilets (where last year they reported some families living), etc.

If you fly helicopter over Singapore, you can see that most of the land is taken up by golf courses, Bukit Timah Good Class Bungalow, etc. Of course cannot see homeless people lah!

Recently every night whenever I walk at Ang Mo Kio Hub,I would see one middle-aged,fat Chinese man wearing nothing except a pair of trousers lying outside Cheers store.He also had a pair of slippers and a newspaper with him.I believe he could either be one of the homeless in S'pore or,for some reason,was chased out from his home.Anyway I wonder if anyone here had also seen this or not?
