What I hate about the current Singapore

[sleepy]

limlim:

Now than we learn what really is SG Inc.

And we're the minority shareholders :nailbite:

phtthp:

today, SG has turned into a Hub.

A Hub - where people conveniently come and go, seek golden opportunites here.
seek enough already - then they \"balik kampong\" retire back in their own country, from whichever hometown they come from.

What to do? Our own kids do the same thing, don't they?

Singapore is not of the past…a place we feel at home…a place we call home.

With a great influx of foreigners, we are going to lose a sense of belonging.

Agreed with you Janet.

I feel sad for our future. But I'm not willing to give up on my country yet. I hope to play a small part, hoping for some changes but not waiting for other fellow Singaporeans to do it instead. My whole family will be gg to Hong Lim Park tomorrow at 4pm.

But can share floormate with you if you & your kaki are not too big a group. So excited, this could be the only event that we will see Singaporeans as Majority leh ... :imcool:

The sad thing is that, from my observations, most Singaporeans that I know who have gone overseas, have no intention of coming back. Those that come back mostly because of aged parents etc. Once their parents pass away, they will go again. Most that I know who are overseas never indicated that they want to go back to SG for retirement etc because that is home. However, the FTs that I talk to all hope to go back to their country one day, even though their country has high corruption, high crime rate, high joblessness and a fraction of SG GDP.

That is so sad isn't it? :sad: Are we still a country??
