I honestly think so. compared to previous gen, those like 10 yrs or older than me (50s and above)
basically now we are totally fucked. totally. fucked. in terms of COL
housing prices are crazily fucked. u believe Lawrence Wong's words?
Look at all the PAP ministers sucking up to foreigners and treat them as most precious pets and dogs.
goh chok tong opened the floodgates. LHL the cheebye kia became PM only cares about money going into the government.
So now they are implying foreigners and PRs are equal to to NS slaves who done so many years of training and wasted time.
For COL it is going up and up, easily at 10 to 20% annually.
PAP is never going to give a fuck, GDP is their KPI.
Import 3 million foreigners to boost economy.
i dont know what the fuck the govt is doing for singles, married couples, those who want to have kids and the elderly tbh
basically the govt is fucking singaporeans so damn bad. totally 100% honest
really i see the so-called help they give in terms of vouchers is totally shit tbh
how do u even help couples?
the other time i mentioned, they should encourage those with higher incomes to give birth but they are not doing so leh.
their stupid fuck sg60 package those things can do what? for the kid to hug and eat?

this fucking shit only takes up space in the storeroom/bedroom.

MONEY OR VOUCHERS OR TOP UP TO THE KIDS ACCOUNT
eh com'on man fuck
i dont think even couples look back at their wedding photos or even kids/parents look back much at their photos/videos u give this type of shit and u pat urself on the back and say Good Job Indranee!

SG is a pro-foreigner anti-local place.
SG is a MNC.
Once the govt runs the country like a corporation, it's oredi screwed up.
Worse blurring the line between public & private. Loads of conflicts of interest & abuse of authority.
Keep seeing high inflation, unemployment, social ills, citizens jumping, ki siao, fighting for seats in HC, mrt, accidents at workplaces & on the road....Not happy living & working. Compared to 90s, we were really happy looking forward to Swiss living.
bad or not.. after cheng hoo will never change and always be there for chiu
:flash:
ndp pack also wad
generate so much unnecessary waste
i think pap has given up on trying to win our votes so just resort to sucking up to foreigners and bringing them in by truckloads.
they are basically bankrupt of ideas to drive our economy other than just hoping the foreigners will continue to spend and spur our economy.
despite this, retail and restaurants are dropping like flies.
honestly, if you have kids, you sld start to worry about their future. we are in for a rough ride.

SEZ and RTS will put more nails into our coffins
we attract so many rubbish into SG because of our strong SGD and stable politics
i dare the govt to depreciate the SGD overnight, see how many PRs, new citizens, WP, SP, EP will rush out of SG immediately

Siang is Risa??
in a decline for the longest time
cb gov is totally clueless and at their wits end on how to boost the economy
basically they killed off everything from manufacturing and farming back then, now rely on tourism and construction but theres only that much
ask any tourists and they say 2 days is basically enough here, it gets boring af

Give it 10 years. i believe JB can surpass SG.
Can't believe they need 9 months to repair a stretch of 50m road. Really amazing and tiles are popping everywhere.

Tiagong tan ming liang might be joining the pap under bukit timah.

most likely just to further his influence and business.

Quote from: bsg on Mar 12, 2025, 08:06 PMwant to sell razer chair to all the stag boards ah?
idea leh.
'supply' razer chair, mouse, and keyboard to all the stat boards, GLCs, agencies... wah should be quite huat. even the razer laptops. i am sure they don't mind produce a work version laptop.
New tiagong: apparently pap have decided to drop tan ming Liang from GE seeing how he is similar to musk, who is not popular in US.

Serve NS these days is nothing to worry. Very safe and a lot easier.
The issue is that they are defending a country which prob at least half are not local born singaporeans.
And yeah a lot of competition from there for jobs and housing...
