Not sure if we are still peacocks but for sure we are cocks for taking all these crap shoved to us…

“Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.”

Once there was a place where eagles soared and flew free. They went wherever they wanted to. They ate whatever they wanted to. They flew and soared as high as they wanted to.

One day, a man dressed in white (MIW) came along and spoke to the eagles:

He said:
“Oh eagles, why do you fly here and there? There is another world out there and if we work together we can conquer it and call it our home. Imagine the vast space you could fly in and the huge varieties of food you can eat to your hearts content. Come down and listen to me. I will show you the way to paradise on earth“.

And so the eagles, being naïve more than anything else, believed the MIW because they had never heard any man speak so sweetly before.

That day, the eagles flew down from the sky to listen to the MIW.

Soon, they were listening to his stories. To his promises of a paradise beyond imagination. A paradise where one could only dream of.

While the MIW continued talking with his sweet and tender words, the gathering of eagles did not realised that the henchmen of the MIW were closing the surrounding areas where they stood to listen.

Day after day, the MIW told his stories and as the days went by, he managed to convince the eagles that they are in actual fact, peacocks. That they were they most beautiful creatures alive on the face of the earth.

The eagles eventually came to believe that they were peacocks and the more they believed, the more proud they became.

Other birds that flew by and noticed how proud these ‘peacocks’ were, tried to tell them that they are eagles but the ‘peacocks’ would have none of such nonsense. They believed they are peacocks and no one could convince them otherwise.

Many years passed and the older generation of eagles had since passed on. The new generation continue to believe they are the prettiest peacocks on the face of the earth. The theological indoctrination of the MIW became the law that governs every aspects of their lives.

And so the story goes. The ending to the story has yet to be written. Will it be a happy ending? Will it be a sad and tragic ending?

Does it matter if we continue speculating? Do you get it?

The ending is to be written by you and me. We have forgotten that we could fly. We have the freedom to fly, to soar, to land, to seek our own destiny. Why have we become so afraid to fly?

Because we still think we are peacocks.

You believe?

Remember a news few weeks back where a former treasurer embezzled money from the branch. these are the people that needs to be investigated. Surely for the bonds issue, sure got some things that was not declared or reveal.

You will see Wong Kan Seng’s face peeking out at you in the Dire Straits Times lambasting Chiam See Tong and/or Low Thia Khiang. You will see big schlong Lee coming out and making his sagacious comments. You will hear about Goh Chok Tong on TV exhorting the public to go on a witch-hunt for these buggers who screwed up their town council accounts.

Now that the boot’s on the other foot, you can be sure, the PAP and its happy lapdogs i.e. the state media, will just sweep everything under the rug and pretend nothing happened.

Maybe we should organise a HLP excursion where effigies of screwed PAP leaders are burnt. I think it’s allowed under the law, and see whether the Dire Straits Times will pick up on that story.

Why do we not see pot shots being taken at the Opp TCs by the ‘nuts’ here? There must be a reason right?

Does our Opp TCs know something about running a town council that our dear elites in govt don’t? If it is that difficult then why have they not lost $12m like our dear elites have?

How about contributing your money towards making up for those losses suffered by the various town councils? You’ll be honoured for sure, by PAP only.

The issue here is one of accountability. Only unthinking Singaporeans couldn’t be bothered by these losses, unless, of course, you’re in PAP!

By the way, this is a sombre reflection on the whole system of PAP governance.

We all make mistakes and this time round we made the BIGGEST mistake for believing in the PAPgovt and their promises which keep falling by the wayside, one by one, yet dare not look us in the eye and acknowledge their mistake.

People make mistakes. Honest people own up to the mistakes they made. Dishonest people not only tries to hide their mistakes but scold others and blame them for the mistakes.

We therefore have to acknowledge our mistake – for voting this PAP govt. We therefore have to own up to our mistake and do the right thing. We should not blame anyone else. We must do the right thing the next time the opportunity comes by. Kick these people out for good.

Gilby, it is not surprising nor shocking to know what these MIW and their polical movements and strategies, all these are well planned and organized years ago. The reason behind this last minute decision 1party thingy have something to do with the series of what’ve been happening on the ground level that is already badly affecting their image, fearing that they are starting lose ground, they are now turning to forced self election, so no matter what you people protest, you have no other choice but to obey me now, get it?

CEO who make decisions to invest also have good and valid reasons.
But when CEOs investment goes bad, they can be sacked EVEN when the reasons for investment is good.

So, get my point?

hallooooo??? any body home ????? I also wan leh. Shiok shiok ah.
