how the govt makes me hate them even more

I hate it when to our beloved government, human lives are just numbers. We are sitting here, as the CHAIR of ASEAN, looking at Myanmar shoot their monks, Singaporean and other innocent civilians like that Japanese photographer, and all we can say is that we are practicing "QUIET DIPLOMACY"

WHAT THE FUCK IS QUIET DIPLOMACY. how many more lives needs to be lost before we do anything. how many more people have to die before it becomes a problem. human lives ARE NOT NUMBERS. you don't sit down there getting your million of dollars of pay and to say that well, i need so many people to die before we do something.

speaking about money, CPF is irritating me more and more and more. Don't you love how much the government believe in us. that they do not even believe that we can spend our own money. we are paid so lowly already, then a HUGEASS amount goes to the government right, but you can never take that money back EVER.

Even when you are about to die, now you need to take it back as annuity. why? because they believe that we would go and fuck around the moment we get our CPF. yes at this juncture the state times and other media would run sob stories about how indeed there are 2 such cases and then sobbing tales of the wives. WHAT ABOUT THE REST OF US!

read before i die to see how one person got into trouble with his CPF. and of course mr wang on how this guy was convicted of cheating HIMSELF of HIS OWN CPF monies.

Or................. could it be that they need more money to invest? Afterall the GIC (Government Investment Company) has a not so simple relationship with the CPF funds. don't you EVER WONDER what happens to our money. 2.5% interest. come on, investment funds do much better than that.

"To a question by opposition MP Low Thia Khiang (Hougang) on whether the Government of Singapore Investment Corporation (GIC) uses funds from the CPF funds to invest, Dr Ng said: "The answer is no."

"Later he rose to add: "The relationship is not so simple".

QUESTION PEOPLE. QUESTION. we all need to critically question every single thing. even religion, religious text. never let anyone draw wool over you. question every bloody thing.

i hate this place

小朋友, chill out. They can treat you like dirt but if you can influence your friends and relatives in making the right choice at the ballot box, that's more important.
