Happy National Day

Now, Singapore is my country, love it and sometime dislike it. This is what I dislike about Singapore in my own opinion,

TOP TEN REASON WHY I MIGHT DISLIKE SINGAPORE

1)Car too expensive to own, COE,PARF,ERP,TP,IMPORT TEXT....etc

2)Government set very very strict rules hindering small business (mobile food van for example)

3) My RSM give me boliao duties like Hanger guard and BOS.

4)No strong opposition party in the parliment. I support PAP but at less give 30% of the seats to opposition so that unwelcome policy can be opposed instead of been implemented to make more suffer.

5)Rising and rising transport cost!!!

6)CPF. Yes, its a stupid and old outdated policy set it the pass and obsolete now. Felt more like a tax than saving plan. Good for buying flats only.

7)Kangaroo Court. I hope I don't suffer its wrath.

8) Our new prime minister. No offence please, but at less allow for voting. I can't see any proven track record in him but hopefully he lead us well.

9)NKF show. After a few years, I become sick of it.

10) The cameras in Geylang. Shit....this thing really too away much of the vibrancy in the even numbers lorong. Another idea from the top scholars that does no purpose other than chasing away prostitutes and the customer at the food outlets around the area.

Now now.... I only mean to say I dislike about my country not hate. Its like I dislike some bad habits of my sis, mum, dad and girlfriend that does not mean I don't love them. I love Singapore (not wayanging ok!?)--

TOP TEN REASON I LOVE SINGAPORE

1) Lee Kuan Yew. Despite what some say that he is cunning, he is god of no mercy (as oppose to Kuan Yin) and he just don't want to loss his grip on power. However, without his leadership and without his inspiration to lead our earlier generation we won't be able to transform a slum settlement into HDB estate, Farmers into Office workers, Ulu Ulu Sembawang Kampong into Sembawang new town, STI Index 200++ into STI Index 2300++, Rag tag band of soldiers into the modern well equipped and high tech SAF..etc...etc

2)Multi racial society. Every race co-exisiting peacefully under one roof. You won't find it else where in the world.

3)Food glorious food! We got lots of variety from different race! Chinese food, Indian food, Muslim, Western, Japanese, Korean...blar blar blar. I seriously have not finish eating every type of food advailable.

4)Seriously and Honestly...our public transport system is great despite the cost. Compare it with London and Newyork, you will felt the difference. I have stayed in Hong Kong for 3 - 4 months and the cost of public transport is much higher than Singapore

5)Our Health facilities are easily within reach. You won't have to walk more more than 1km to reach a clinic when you are sick.

6)Our young lion's soccer team. How I wish they were still competing in the Malaysia Cup. So much pride for our country and glory during those good old days. Especially when we won the Malaysia Cup 4 time in a row. However, our soccer team are progressing well currently.

7)Our RSAF CH47SD Chinook Helicopter a.k.a 'Flying Hot Dog'

8) All the friends I made especially the 9 Dragon Clan Brothers.

9)The fact that I can walk alone at night without getting rob, whack up, killed or sodomized.

10) I LOVE SINGAPORE for the very fact that I can have the luxury to sit here and type all this stuff and the fact that you have the time to read it. Show that we can all afford time to sit down and relax and also all of us can afford to have PC with internet at home. Unlike in the past... This really show how much we have progress.

Can we all just for one day, on the 9th of August forget everything bad about Singapore and be optimistic and proud of the country? Just one day lah.....the next day we all can still be the typical Singaporean we usually are...complain and complain and complain only. Thank you and don't forget to watch NDP Parade 'LIVE" at the Padang.... I am marching hor!!!

HAPPY NATIONAL DAY!!!
