the survey is not accurate. Many of us just half heartedly completed the survey, shading all the neutral option.

If the below is really true, I think the PAP MP should really brush up on this EQ

The question is what have we to be proud of? A clean city? A free democractic society? A fair and just country? I am a Sinkaporean but I am not proud of it because in my many travels I found myself defending the country records on human rights and our justice system. I am runing out of excuses and begining to see some of the strangers’ view. Democracy is never tidy and gahment come and go. There will be good and bad gahment but democracy will ensure the bad will be voted out. A one party state with no opposition is a just a perfect setup for corruption. It may not happen now but what about the future?Would paying ministers million dollar wages consider corruption by different means? Destroying opposition parties using the state legal system fall into this corruption ? There were many questions that I do not have an answer. A healthy country with multi party contesting an election is what the world would like to see e.g real choices.

Singapore is just a place for me, although I’m Singaporean… What this means is that I do not feel that it’s home. With no sense of belonging, how will I even feel proud to be in this country???

I stayed in a small town in Australia before and felt that the people there are friendlier, more helpful and live life (not just blindly pursuing material comforts). Well, I feel a sense of belonging there. Even with it’s lack of facilities and convenience, I feel proud to belong to such a wonderful place…

a academic was telling me the other day about how he has been hearing a lot of expats calling Singapore a “cash n carry” place which implies they are not proud to be Singaporean either.

Thanks to the PAP’s hegemony and lack of freedom and civic rights, people has no sense of ownership, therefore no belonging, therefore no pride. The country becomes a hotel.
