What I hate about the current Singapore

[Dora1]

1. Being a minority in your own country (estate, public transport, shopping malls, workplace, schools - everywhere!)

2. The whole society - gov and people thinks that money can solve all problems. :moneyflies: :moneyflies: :moneyflies: Materialistic people and gov. Not enuf babies -give $$$, traffic jam - pay $$ (ERP/ COE), now that we complain too many foreigners and PRs escaping NS, someone is suggesting to ask the foreigners to pay tax in lieu of NS.... :skeptical:

what i dun like... Hmmmm ... I feel like an immigrant in my own country!!

Yes, i feel the same way too.
is no longer the same country that we used to grow up, in the past 35 years ago - during the age of the baby boomers (those born in the 1950s, early 1960s)

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.

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.
