IIRC, the 2 beneficiaries of the blown YOG budget is Singtel & Singapore Food Industries.

No way am I ok with gay!! I cannot stand gay also and neither do I treat them like "sister"
But CSJ has publicly said that if they are voted in, they will not seek to repeal this act and even if they do, they will not get majority approval in parliament, I, for one, do not agree with this repeal also.
But being gay doesnt mean he cannot make be a politician, just like steve chia who has "weird" habits.
Cost overrun is forgivable if by a bit, but by such an astronomical overrun, its ridiculous especially as they are supposedly people who are smart and so well paid to run the country. Do you think such overruns are forgivable in private sector? These people will have been sacked already instead of still earning their million dollar salary
out of curiousity ... what about 2 girls having sxx with each other ??Originally Posted by HP65
Next time if you burst your budget by a few times, try telling your boss, "Its an honest mistake, let's move on" and see whether you still have your job or not....just my

LPPL ....
PAP needs to realise that they more they think they can push the people the more the people get pissed
He will conveniently "vanish" into the background and be one of the banished and will not see him again in future elections especially as he made that statement about 4 room hdb flat being poor which irked alot of peopleOriginally Posted by sleek
Another sodomy case in the making?Originally Posted by novel

if EVERYTIME overrun is not forgivable BUT if a 1st time event and significant important event overrun CAN be forgivable according to my experience in private sector
few times OUT, 1 time give chance.Originally Posted by extremme

Same viewOriginally Posted by proud owner
But why 377A only covers man-man, we really have to ask our colonial masters
Anyway, this is going to be an interesting election and its my GRC that they are contesting in.....at the end of the day, not that I'm taking sides, there are really bigger issues to worry about for Singapore than if the MP is gay or if somebody under-estimated the cost of a global event. Not that these issues are unimportant, imo, there are other platforms to debate those issues. To make them election issues, we are not doing justice to bigger national issues.
i totally agree with youOriginally Posted by HP65
this is just something someone put up to 'derail' whats impt
unfortunately alot of sporeans go for the little things .. when it comes to impt issues all shut up ...sigh
so what are impt to you ?
Let's be honest. As much as we think there are much bigger issues that deal with the country, there are also many small details and issues that affect probably only you but it is nonetheless vitally important to you.
Imagine the guy who cannot get a favorable reply from the relevant govt-funded agencies when he sought help on his escalating medical bill, or the guy whose request to the MP for help on some domestic issues did not receive even an acknowledgment from the MP? Inevitably, these individuals would consider twice as they go to the polls!
impt issues are:Originally Posted by proud owner
1) how to sustain spore grow for next 20~30 years with so many competitors coming out
2) spore being tiny with no natural resources, is very important to be well known in world map. so we must really go all out to do the best for everything(tats why overspend for YOG), then other countries will know abt us. so we need a capable team with high integrity to gain investor confidence
3) this generation start to lose our dialect. hope govt can do something to preserve our dialect or it will be lost in 2 generations
this is my take....high minister pay, overspend to me is secondary. we need a capable team!!
I'm a simple man.Originally Posted by proud owner
1) Singapore's long term relevance and security in the global context
2) Bread and butter issues for citizens
Its easy to identify the issues but more importantly, and herein lies the difficulties, formulating the solutions.
Imo, there are a lot of noises around but these are really just distractions. And these noises sometimes mask the real issues. I hope the govt can sieve out the real feedback from noises and really listen to the people's concerns and not brush it all away as noises.
pls lah I am talking about event costing even overrun also will not caused the co. to close down. Barings is because that guy speculating future contracts resulting losing $1.3 BILLION.Originally Posted by sleek
