Default A Moral Victory For Singaporeans, A Defeat For PAP!
Finally, the PAP concedes defeat and upgrading comes to Hougang after 20years. PAP's divisive politics has been defeated as LHL realises that the pap was wrong in denying HG upgrading because Hougang residents had the courage to exercise their constitutional rights and chose to vote in their preferred candidate instead of the pap.

This is a moral victory for Singapore led by Hougang residents who suffered 20 years of discrimination due to PAP's immoral policies. I salute HG residents for being courageous and standing up to the arrogant pap. They have taught the mighty PAP a bitter lesson in moral values.

This month, COE for small cars have reached S$73,501 and for big cars $94,502. This is due to pap's immoral policy of letting in 2million foreigners which created a demand which SG cant satisfy. The pap chooses to tell us that that's market forces of supply and demand. But is that really so? if SG had only 3 million people, COE wont be chased by 5.2m people and would definitely not be $73.5K and $94.5K. A poor small time plumber who needs a commercial vehicle to ply his trade has to pay $57,000 to extend his vehicle's COE if it is 10years old. How to do small plumbing business with such high COE for commercial vehicle? The pap is wrong to let in 2million foreigners without planning how to accommodate them. This is negligence and immoral!

Let's see the pap accepting responsibility and finally doing something to:

1. Reduce cost of living caused by its liberal influx of foreigners chasing after scarce resources such as public and private transport, education, healthcare, food, housing, jobs, etc

2. Divert tax payers' money from wasteful expenditure to reduce healthcare costs, increase social spending, reduce education fees, etc

3. Drop divisive politics and finally embracing all Singaporeans regardless of their political preferences. The pap must not penalise Singaporeans who choose not to vote for them.

Hougang has shown us that perseverance and courage are important values to keep SG flag flying. As we celebrate our 47th National Day tmrw, let the PAP leaders acknowledge that they have done many wrongs, correct their wrongdoings, unite all Singaporeans and make Singapore a country for all Singaporeans!

It's alright to make mistakes but it's not alright to choose not to hear, not to see the people's sufferings and cries! Let's make Singapore the best country it can be for many years to come

that's an issue the pap has to look at...but i dont think it is top on their agenda.

the moral issue regarding CPF is whether it is morally right to compel a Singaporean into the CPF Life scheme

In economics term, the increase of 2 million foreigners has drastically shifted the Demand curve for COEs. Even with steady supply, the shift in the Demand curve caused price of COEs to increase. Coupled with Raymond Lim's mistakes in COE calculation a few years ago, Singaporeans are suffering. This will in turn affect businesses and Singaporeans' lives
