The government does wonderful things for the country, but not the people.

[ridaham7879]

ive read alot about our government and its about time we have a new government altogether..

lets make the changes and vote for SDP on the next General Election.

cant imagine that we, the true Singaporean will and for sure be outnumbered by FTs and especially the Chinese National if PAP run this country for eternity.

Damm retard thinking the US will be bothered with him.

[Fistoffury07]

wat is the point of all this.. yes the pap is greedy and does not give a rat's arse abt sporeans. But pls dont forget that when LKY become the country's leader, he too fought a oppressive British regime and champion the rights of the people and workers and promised to stand up for them. After he became the PM, he became consumed by his greed and power. How do we know that the next idealistic and moralistic leader that we elect would not become like him???

Your determination & perseverance is commendable. I salute you. You've sacrificed so much & I thank you on behalf of my fellow Singaporeans.

We are not stupid, gullible or ignorant. We all know that LKY & his minuons are like devils citing scriptures from the bible for his own purpose.

Chee Soo Juan clearly has some mental problem in thinking we are like apartheid South Africa. He talks about democracy, freedom and human rights yet lest we forget, it was he who ousted Dr. Chiam See Tong, a truly decent politician from the Opposition whom I respect, from the SDP earlier. He loves to rant about the tyrant Lee Kuan Yew yet clearly, he hasn't taken a look in the mirror to see that he is a tyrant. A man who turns on his own Party leader and mentor does not deserve help from anyone.

I am not a politican, just one ordinary Singaporean. I have only recently look into politics not disagreeing with either sides, the ruling party or the opposition party. I look into your (Dr Chee) situation feeling quite helpless, is it really necessary to go on this extent for democracy? What about you and your family? If you want Singapore to change, it is 50 billions dollars a year for the country's expenses. It sounds practical and inhumane talking about figures. It's reality.

My sincere wishes to you! I can't stand Lee Kwan Yew, he is so heartless to millions of people in Singapore. Well, everyone dies one day, so in the end, it kinda doesn't matter then anyway right? That's what Singapore has made me, so depressed and lifeless. I hope you achieve what you want for the betterment of human beings in Singapore, who need to see and feel a change in their lives. Thank you!
